How to Care for Your Frodio Hair
Proper care is the secret to keeping your Frodio hair looking gorgeous and lasting longer. Whether you own synthetic & blended wigs or 100% human hair extensions, follow these care guides to get the best results.
I.Synthetic & Blended Hair Care
What Is Synthetic & Blended Hair?
Synthetic Hair Made from premium fibers like Kanekalon® or Toyokalon®.
-
Look & Feel: Lightweight, shiny, slightly stiffer than human hair
-
Heat: Heat-sensitive — avoid temperatures over 250°F / 120°C
-
Color: Holds color well but cannot be bleached or dyed
-
Wear Life: Typically lasts 1–3 months with regular wear
Blended Hair A mix of synthetic fibers and human hair, giving you a softer, more natural look.
-
Heat: Can handle medium heat up to 300°F / 150°C
-
Color: Cannot be bleached or chemically dyed
-
Wear Life: Typically lasts 3–6 months with proper care
Reminder: Neither synthetic nor blended hair should be chemically dyed or bleached. Try temporary sprays, chalks, or colored wax for safe, fun color changes.
Washing & Drying
Wash every 1–2 weeks, or when the hair feels dusty, oily, or flat.
-
Prepare: Fill a basin with lukewarm water (not hot).
-
Cleanse: Add a small amount of fabric softener or wig shampoo and soak the wig gently.
-
Handle Gently: Avoid rubbing or twisting to prevent tangles.
-
Detangle: Use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to smooth strands while wet.
-
Rinse: With clean lukewarm water until product is completely removed.
-
Dry: Pat gently with a towel (do not wring) and air-dry flat or on a wig stand away from direct sunlight.
Tip: Skip heavy conditioners — synthetic fibers don’t absorb them and may feel sticky.
Detangling & Curl Revival
-
Light Tangles: Finger-comb or use a wide-tooth comb
-
Severe Tangles: Soak with fabric softener solution, detangle carefully, trim stubborn knots
-
Refresh Curls: Mist with water or wig-care spray, reshape curls by hand, air-dry to set
Do’s & Don’ts
Do:
-
Comb gently from ends to roots

II. Human Hair Extensions Care
Caring for human hair extensions is essential to maintaining their beauty, longevity, and overall health. Whether you wear them for volume, length, or style, these steps will help keep them looking their best.
Washing Your Extensions
Frequency: Wash every 7–10 wears or as needed. Over-washing can lead to dryness. Products: Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner made for hair extensions. Avoid harsh chemicals.
Steps:
-
Detangle: Brush gently to remove knots before washing.
-
Wet & Lather: Wet hair with warm water, apply a small amount of shampoo, and work through from roots to ends.
-
Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with cool water to seal cuticles.
-
Condition: Apply conditioner, focusing on ends. Leave for a few minutes, then rinse.
-
Deep Condition: Once every 1–2 weeks, use a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask. Apply generously, focus on the mid-lengths and ends, leave for 20 minutes, then rinse. This helps restore moisture, shine, and manageability.
Drying Your Extensions
-
Air Dry: Best option. Pat dry with a towel and lay flat on a clean towel.
-
Blow Dry: If necessary, use low heat, keep dryer at least 6 inches away, and apply heat-protectant spray.
Styling Your Extensions
-
Heat Protection: Always use a heat protectant spray before using curling irons or flat irons.
-
Heat Tools: Use low to medium heat settings to prevent dryness and breakage.
-
Brushing: Use a wide-tooth comb or soft-bristle brush, starting at the ends and working up.
Storing Your Extensions
-
Store completely dry extensions in a cool, dry place, preferably in a storage bag or on a hanger.
-
Keep away from direct sunlight and humidity to avoid fading or frizz.
Additional Tips
-
Moisturizing: Apply a lightweight serum or oil to the ends after styling to keep them shiny and hydrated.
-
Avoid Sleeping with Wigs or Ponytails: Always remove your wig or ponytail piece before going to bed to prevent tangling and unnecessary shedding.
-
Professional Maintenance: For sew-in or tape-in extensions, schedule regular touch-ups with a stylist.
