Before the lifespan runs out, the wearer must regularly visit the stylist for a touchup or reinstallation. As we sweat and our natural hair grows underneath the base, the hair system will eventually loosen up. Hence, we usually reinstall them every 2-3 weeks at the salon and wash the hair system, which is part of its maintenance routine.
