Avoid humid environments:
Wigs should not be stored in humid or excessively hot environments. They should be placed in a dry, cool place to prevent the hair strands from absorbing moisture and deforming. In wet environment, hair will absorb water, that will make the hair fiber frizzy and form knots.
