Care guide
How to make it last
SILQMÏST hair is human hair, so it behaves like your own: it loves moisture, gentle handling and protection at night. Follow these steps and your hair will hold its pattern and shine — and if you're ever unsure, talk to us.
01
Detangle before you wet it
Start at the ends with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers and work up. Never brush soaking hair — that is when the cuticle is most fragile.
02
Wash in lukewarm water, in one direction
Dilute a sulphate-free shampoo and glide it down the length rather than scrubbing in circles. Rinse with the hair hanging straight so the strands stay aligned.
03
Condition, then deep-condition weekly
A rich conditioner after every wash, and a deeper mask once a week. Raw and virgin hair drinks — keep it fed and it stays soft.
04
Dry gently, never rub
Squeeze with a microfibre towel or cotton t-shirt, then let it air dry or diffuse on low heat. Rubbing with a bath towel causes frizz and breakage.
05
Heat style with a protectant
Human hair takes heat beautifully, but use a protectant and keep flat irons under 180°C / 350°F. Lower heat holds the pattern longer.
06
Protect it while you sleep
Silk or satin bonnet, or a loose braid on a silk pillow. This is the single biggest thing you can do for length and shine.
07
Store it properly between wears
Detangle, then keep units on a stand or in a silk bag. Bundles should be laid flat or hung, never crammed wet into a bag.
08
Treat the lace with care
Keep glue and remover off the hairline itself, and dissolve residue with a dedicated lace cleanser rather than alcohol, which dries the lace out.
Textures, at a glance
Body Wave
Finger-detangle and scrunch in a light leave-in. Air-dry or diffuse to keep the soft S-pattern.
Burmese Curly
Treat curls like your own — co-wash, deep-condition weekly and finger-style while wet. Never brush dry.
Deep Wave
Keep it moisturised and detangle only when wet with conditioner. Avoid brushing dry waves.
Loose Wave
Use a wide-tooth comb and a light mousse to define the waves. Low heat keeps the movement natural.
Straight
Wrap at night and smooth with a light serum. Keep heat low to hold the sleek, glassy finish.
Water Wave
Refresh with a water-and-leave-in mist and let it air-dry. Pineapple it loosely at night.
