When it comes to summer wig wear challenges, taking your wig on the road is certainly up there. Whether you’re indulging in a staycation this summer or venturing a little further afield, being able to take all those essentials along will ensure you feel confident wherever your adventure takes you. With this in mind, we’re here to share our top tips for travelling with your wig.

Understand the importance of packing like a pro

Learning how to pack well will certainly speed up the check-in process if you’re travelling by plane. It’s not just with your holiday wardrobe where packing like a pro will make a positive difference, however. Packing your wig correctly is integral to maintaining its shape and condition, especially if your wig is pre-styled.

Invest in a few travel (and wig) friendly supplies

Here at Wigs4u, we specialise in providing, not just the synthetic and human hair wigs that help you look and feel your very best, but the products that’ll help you enjoy wig wear properly. When shopping for travel-friendly wig supplies, however, there’s one handy accessory many jet-setting wig wearers swear by as Travel Voyage explains:

“A wig travel case is a must-have for anyone who owns a wig. Wigs are expensive and delicate, and they need to be protected when you travel. A good wig travel case will keep your wig safe from damage and prevent it from getting tangled or wet. There are a few things to look for when choosing a wig travel case. First, make sure that the case is large enough to fit your wig comfortably.”

You don’t have to waste your hard-earned cash on a dedicated wig travel case to transport your wig safely. A silk bag offers a simpler and more compact way to store and get your wig from A to B. Experts recommend placing your wig neatly in a net before storing it in a silk bag for the journey.

Never pack, store or transport a dirty wig

Storing a dirty wig in that silk bag isn’t the best idea, so be sure to give your wig a clean before you pack for your upcoming holiday. Wash in your usual, sulfate-free shampoo, before conditioning and allowing it to dry thoroughly. Your wig is then ready to store and transport!

Prepare yourself and your wig for the journey ahead

If you’re packing an extra wig or two – which is something we’d certainly recommend – and wearing one for the journey, there are a few things to consider before your departure.

While airport security can’t instruct you to remove your wig in public – the scanners will be able to inspect it without removal, and if removal is necessary you can request a private room – you should avoid wearing metal clips or bobby pins to secure it. This will trigger the alarm system and ultimately slow down the check-in process. Instead of securing your wig with clips and pins, use another adhesive, such as wig tape or glue.

Don’t forget to pack your wig stand

A silk bag is a travel must-have for wig wearers, but it’s not a suitable home for your wig once you arrive at your destination. Just like at home, your wig should be stored on a stand.

Our premium wig stand is not only excellent value for money, but it’s also made for use at home and on the go. Its collapsible design can be packed flat in seconds, meaning you’ll always have the equipment you need to store your wig the right way.
