18 tips to keep your wig unbeweaveable
Most important tip!
1. Be careful!
The Closure/Frontal are ventilated by hand in India and therefor the most sensitive part of the wig. Make sure your braids are as flat as possible before putting on the wig.
How to put on the wig:
Keep your head slightly bended and hold both sides of the wig. Slide the wig on (from front to back). Don’t pull the closure/frontal to correct the wig, since this can tear the closure/frontal.

6. Brush tip
7. Wash tip
Wash the wig once a week or when necessary and always gently. Try to limit using shampoo since this will strip
the weave from oil, dirt but also all moisture. Co-washing with conditioner will clean the weave as well without stripping all the moisture. Do not brush the wig when saturated with shampoo.
Tip: Only wash the closure or frontal if the rest of the wig is still clean. Please click here for a detailed video with wash instructions.
8. Wash tip
Squeeze the excess water from the wig with your hands after washing. Do not use a towel to prevent rubbing the cuticles in the opposite direction due to the rough fabric. Always air-dry your wig
9. Conditioner tip
Always use a conditioner to soften the weave, since shampoo only tends to dry out the weave. Preferably a conditioner without sulfates since this ingredient dries out the hair.
10. Sedal tip
11. Air-dry tip
12. Swim tip
Always use a heat-protectant when using heat. Please keep in mind that using excessive (high) heat can shorten the lifespan of the weave.
Tip: Blow dry or use a heated styling brush first on Raw Indian Straight and Wavy for a sleeker look. Try Perm or Flexi Rods for heatless curling results.
13. Serum tip
Use Serum as a finishing touch after styling. The serum will ensure shiny and soft hair. Only use a few drops to prevent greasiness.
14. Flawless curls tip
The hair is Raw it is therefore recommended to use hairspray for extra hold. Without hairspray the curl will fade faster. Click here for a tutorial.
15. Swimming tip
Always make sure to wear a ponytail or a braid while swimming to prevent the hair from tangling.
16. Bleaching
Please note that Bleaching Raw Indian Curly can make the curls looser. Hair extensions that are chemically treated are no longer raw. Be unbeweaveable is not liable for damage to hair extensions that have been caused due to any form of chemical treatment.
17. Knots tip
Bleaching the closure/frontal makes the knots looser. To preserve the longevity of the closure/ frontal and to prevent shedding as much as possible since the lace is very fragile, it is recommended to spray a knot adhesive on the inside of the closure/ frontal. The yellow Got2B Freeze spray can be used as well.
