- To get rid of the tangles, use water, a moisturizing conditioner, a wide-tooth comb, or even just your fingers

Detangle your wig frequently
Use a leave-in conditioner to combat frizzy hair
Spray water on your frizzy hair or use a leave-in conditioner to control those unruly strands. Sometimes all the curls require is a little moisture to rebuild them and get rid of the hated matted hair appearance. Applying oils can help seal in moisture and add vitality to curls, but keep in mind that a little goes a long way. If your hair has too much oil, it will get weighed down, and the only way to make it return to its normal form is to wash it.

Restore the curls
After washing your curly wig, you need to restore the curls back to their original style. Separate the hair into sections based on the types of curls your wig has or that you want it to have: smaller sections for tighter curls, larger sections for looser curls or waves.
Gently twist each curl with your finger, then let it return to its original shape. Try twisting your curls in the opposite direction if you notice that they are not bouncing back as they should.
With your curly human hair wig, you might be able to get your curls back by using a curling iron, but be sure to use moderate heat.

Store your curly wigs
Because they are curly wigs, keep them on the wig stand whenever you are not using them, but keep them somewhere airy to prevent damaging the hair.
When you’re not wearing it, cover those curls with a satin cap to keep them safe from dust and other elements. Satin bonnets keep moisture in and protect hair by minimizing the chance of unintended rubbing or friction. The other choice you have for safeguarding your curly hair is to store it in its original packaging when not going to wear it.
What Hair Pruducts To Use For Curly Wigs?
Alcohol-free products
Your curly human hair will still resemble your natural hair. You must therefore treat it the same way you would your own hair. Avoiding alcohol-based items is part of this approach. Alcohol-containing products dry out human hair severely. Hence, it’s necessary to opt for alcohol-free products for your wig.
Sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoos and conditioners
You should pick shampoos that do not peel the hair or take away its curl. Use only moisturizing hair conditioners. Before rinsing, let the hair rest in a basin for five to ten minutes. Avoid rubbing the hair when washing it, which will cause frizz. Then, lay your wig on a towel and gently pat the hair.
Water-based moisturizer
To moisturize your curly wig, you can use any water-based moisturizer. So, make sure you look at the first ingredients before buying any moisturizer. Check the ingredient list to determine if water is listed as one of the first ingredients. If it has, you can feel assured that your moisturizer is water-based.
Although you can use oils for your curly wig, you must be aware that they do not supply the wig with the necessary level of moisture. The oil-based moisturizers supply proteins and lubrication to your wig

Vaseline
Many people smoothen their wig’s ends with petroleum jelly (Vaseline). Yet, mineral oils or products containing mineral oils are not recommended for wigs. You should use oils to nourish and smooth your wig if you see dry, rough, or frizzy ends on it.
Mineral oils give the hair a smooth and shining appearance, but it also prevents moisture from penetrating the hair shaft.
