British weather can be unpredictable at the best of times. One minute it’s bright sunshine, the next it’s drizzle and frizz-inducing humidity. Whether you're enjoying a walk in the park, running errands, or heading off on holiday, it’s important to make sure your wig is ready for all kinds of weather. This guide will help you keep your style looking fresh and natural; no matter what the forecast says.
☀️ Protecting Your Wig from Humidity
Humidity can cause wigs (especially human hair styles), to lose their shape or volume. One of the easiest ways to manage this is by choosing a heat-friendly synthetic wig, which holds its style beautifully even in damp or sticky conditions. A light spritz of TressAllure Leave-In Conditioner before heading out can help smooth fibres, reduce frizz, and add softness without weighing the wig down.

🌧️ Out in the Rain? Here’s What to Do
While wigs aren’t damaged by the occasional bit of rain, it’s always best to shield them from a downpour. If rain is on the cards, keep a small umbrella or lightweight scarf in your handbag to protect your wig while out and about.
If your wig does get wet:
- Gently blot it with a soft towel (avoid rubbing)
- Leave it to air dry on a wig stand
- Never apply heat while the wig is damp
💨 Windy Days & Wig Security
A blustery day can leave you feeling a bit self-conscious, but there’s no need to worry if your wig is fitted properly. Styles with a lace front and/or monofilament top are designed to stay in place, even in windy conditions.
For additional peace of mind, try using a wig grip band, this will add extra hold without causing discomfort!
