When we provide custom-made wigs for the children we serve at Maggie’s Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan, they receive all the tools & products needed to care for their wig in a maintenance kit. Included are written instructions that families can follow to maximize the condition & longevity of their child’s wig.
Our wig cleansing video below offers step-by-step instructions as a visual guide and can be watched here: https://youtu.be/sQKOijoXBro
If you need support with caring for your wig, please contact us at: 586-772-6656 to schedule an appointment or email maggie@wigs4kids.org We’re honored & privileged to be of service!
