Featuring a high-quality light blonde wig! Be sure to wear with Marilyn's iconic white dress from the film seven-year itch! Wear a wig cap for added comfort and to keep your own hair under wraps.
HOW TO WEAR YOUR WIG:
- Remove your wig from its packaging and allow to air out and attain its desired shape and style.
- For the best fit, pin your hair as flat and as evenly as you can and cover your hair with a wig cap to keep your hair in place.
- Slightly tilt your head back and starting at your hairline, gently put your wig into place, making sure the label is positioned at the back of your head. Use bobby pins to secure the wig to your hair or wig cap if needed (some wigs have attached clips).
- It is normal for hair to shed off the wig.
HOW TO STYLE YOUR WIG:
- Use a wide wire wig brush and plastic comb to prevent static when brushing the wig (you can even use your fingers).
- For those messy strands or extra styling, you can spray with hairspray.
- For some extra body or lift, feel free to tease or backcomb the hair if you like.
- Feel free to cut your wig but do NOT dye your wig.
- You may use cold rollers or overnight styling tools to curl.
- You can use hot styling tools such as irons or curlers but the temperature must be below 180°C / 356°F.
- To wash your wig, place wig in cold water and use mild shampoo and gentle hand wash. When clean, thoroughly rinse out the wig and shake out any excess water. Drip dry.
