💁🏾‍♀️ From Box to Slay: How to Install Your Wig at Home Like a Pro

 

You’ve just received your Michy Lush Hairr wig — the packaging is pristine, the lace is laid, and the style is everything. Now what?


Installing your glueless wig at home can be easy, quick, and flawless — as long as you know the steps. This guide walks you through everything you need to slay your install like a seasoned pro, right from your own vanity.

 

🛍 What You’ll Need:

Wig cap

Wide-tooth comb or wig brush

Edge control and small styling brush

Adjustable band or clips (included in Michy Lush Hairr units)

Mirror + good lighting

Confidence (non-negotiable 😌)

 

🔥 Step-by-Step: At-Home Wig Installation


1. Prep Your Natural Hair


Braid or flatten your hair underneath a wig cap. Smooth everything down to avoid lumps or unevenness.


2. Apply the Wig Cap


Choose a cap that matches your skin tone. Make sure it’s snug, but not too tight.


3. Position Your Wig


Hold your wig at the nape and gently place it on your head. Adjust the combs and bands to secure it in place.


Tip: Line up the lace with your natural hairline for a realistic finish.


4. Blend & Style the Hairline


Use a small brush and edge control to lay your baby hairs (optional but cute). You can also use foundation or lace tint to blend the lace seamlessly.


5. Style to Your Vibe


Whether you’re keeping it straight, adding curls, or flipping it to the side — make it you.

 

✨ Quick Fixes for Common Wig Woes

Too puffy? Use a hot comb to flatten the top.

Loose fit? Tighten the elastic band or add an extra one.

Visible lace? Dab with concealer and blend with a sponge.

 

🎯 Go From Basic to Bomb in Minutes


This process gets faster with practice — and with the right unit, you’re looking like a whole new level of luxe in under 15 minutes.
