On behalf of Expert Village, here at Jean Peretis, this is Gloria VanWoerkom. I want to take you through some of the products and how to care for the wig. This is the shampoo that we use, and this is called Fiber Clean this is a very good shampoo. We really don't want you to use any type of a detergent on your hair piece. We should use a good shampoo and a really good conditioner. This is our shampoo and this is the conditioner that is really good, it is a spray on. You can use a good balsam in your rinse water, it is very important to do that when your washing your wig. This can be used after, cause you just spray it on and it brings the life back into the wig, this is excellent. This is called Hair So Soft, and this is a very good product to use. In the long wigs we have Detangler Moisturizer which works just beautiful, because when your wearing a longer wig, a lot of times you get your body heat and it tends to snurl up in the back, so if you mist this just very very lightly down the back and take your fingers through it pulls all those mats and nits out of it, so that it helps it to be beautiful again. The spray, a lot of times we don't have to use spray, but a lot of times we do like to use spray. I have an excellent spray here, that?s a spray, that's called Memory Spray, you spray it on the hair and you can comb through it the very next day, with out having all the stiff and sticky of a different spray. This is made for the fiber, and this is a real good, good spray. So you can go two, three weeks before you have to wash, it if you use the right kind of sprays and sometimes you don't need to use a spray, like I said, if you do want to use a spray this is excellent.
