Stay Crown-Ready All Year Round
For lovers of luxury wigs, the seasons bring unique challenges—and opportunities. At The House of Postiche, we believe that elegant wigs deserve the right care and the right accessories so they shine no matter the month. Here’s your ultimate seasonal essentials guide to keep your crown flawless, comfortable, and chic.
Year-Round Foundation: Secure & “Edge-Protected” Fit
Before we even lean into season-specific care, make sure your base is flawless. The weekly, the daily, the subtle details matter.
-
Lock in your wig with our Wig Grip™ Band, designed to keep your wig in place without clips, combs or glue—ideal when temperature or humidity shifts cause subtle slippage.

Next, use the right base layer. A well-fitted cap such as our Non‑Stretch Postiche Cap offers a controlled, breathable foundation for any wig.

These two items are your “year-round minimums”—think of them as your wig wardrobe’s foundation piece.
Spring & Summer: Lightweight, Breathable & Sweat-Proof
When the air warms, the sun shines, and humidity rises, your wig needs special attention: scalp comfort, cap ventilation, and moisture management become top priorities.
What to focus on:
-
Choose light-weight caps and grips so the scalp can breathe.
-
Use a detachable “fresh start” for your lace, as sweat + product buildup = visible lace edges or irritation.
-
Rinse your wig more frequently—especially if worn outside—and use a hydrating leave-in or mist to counter heat-stress.
Recommended product:
-
The Wig Grip™ Band above: its velvet, breathable texture makes it ideal for warm days.
-
Consider adding a breathable wig-under cap or monofilament base for maximum airflow (you may curate one on your site).
Pro tip for Postiche owners:
Store your wig on a cool stand with a fan nearby for at least 15 minutes when you return from an outdoor outing. This lets the base and lace recover from heat/sweat exposure.
Autumn: Transition, Tame Static, Prep for Weather Change
As the air cools, foliage flies—and with it comes increased static, dryness, and changes in indoor heating. Your wig might start feeling brittle or “off” as you move between cold outdoors and the warm indoors.
Seasonal tips:
-
Use a lightweight anti-static mist (or a few spritzes of a leave-in) to reduce flyaways.
-
Double-check cap fit: as you layer coats or scarves, wig bases may shift more—so ensure your Wig Grip™ or cap is snug and secure.
-
Plan a deep-clean before winter sets in: remove styling product build-up, do a thorough wash & condition so the wig enters the colder months fresh.
Recommended product:
-
Again, basics like the cap & grip still apply.
-
Bonus: consider scheduling a service or maintenance session at your in-house atelier for wig spa/maintenance to “reset” your unit for the colder season.
Winter: Cold, Dry Air + Indoor Heating = Extra Care
Cold wind and indoor heating both siphon moisture—your wig and your scalp are no exception. Additionally, hats, scarves, and hoods can rub against lace fronts, tugging at hairs or loosening the hairline.
Winter care checklist:
-
Use a satin or silk scarf under your hat or hood to reduce friction.
-
When the wig comes off, smell and feel the crown: if it’s rough or brittle, schedule a deep-conditioning session.
-
Store wigs upright in cool but not freezing spaces; avoid direct heating vents or radiators.
-
For lace fronts: inspect and, if necessary, secure again—cold weather may shrink cap fibers or loosen adhesives.
Recommended product:
-
The cap and grip remain essential.
-
You might also promote a Winter Wig Spa Package (custom service) to clients—an exclusive Postiche offering.
Bonus: Seasonal “Carry Bag” Essentials
No matter the season, it’s smart to keep a small “wig care kit” in your bag or car for travel or emergencies. Items to include:
-
A gently curved wig brush or wide-tooth comb
-
A small satin scarf
-
Cleansing wipes (silicone- and alcohol-free) for lace or cap refresh
-
Clip-on or case for your wig (if you’re transporting it)
-
Mini bottle of leave-in mist
By keeping these handy, you empower your client to protect their investment—and your brand’s message of timeless elegance.
