Synthetic Fiber FAQ


What are the benefits of synthetic fiber? Synthetic fiber offers multiple benefits. Some benefits include: 

  • Pre styled & style memory – Style is ready to go out of the box and permanently baked in and will remain
  • Color Vibrancy – Color will not fade and remains fresh and vibrant
  • Weather Endurance – Synthetic fiber will not frizz up in humidity or lose its style in rainy conditions.
  • Minimal Maintenance – Small amount of care products are needed and time commitment to care maintenance is low


  • Can I heat style synthetic fiber? No, synthetic fiber does not have the ability to be heat styled. Applying heat or being too close to a heat source will melt the fiber and cause permanent damage.

    How do I cleanse synthetic and how often? Ellen Wille recommends cleansing your synthetic styles every 6-8 wears. Rinse under cool running water (do not submerge in a bowl or basin). Gently cleanse the fiber with BeautiMark Synthetic Care Line in a smooth downward motion and then rinse. Gently comb through with a wide tooth comb and place on a wig stand to dry.

    How can I prevent tangling? Prevent tangling by using BeautiMark Smooth Detangler and a wide tooth comb daily. Spray the Smooth Detangler as needed and gently remove tangles with the comb starting and the ends and working your way up.

    Can I color customize my synthetic fiber? No, synthetic fibers will not react the same to color as some human hair styles. Synthetic fibers contain textile-like dyes which will lead to unpredictable results. We do not recommend chemically altering your synthetic color.

    How long will my synthetic wig/topper last me? Depending on lifestyle and care maintenance, synthetic styles will typically last 6-8 months.
