Eight Products You Should Have in Your Hair System Toolbox
Leave-In Conditioner
Any type of conditioning is beneficial to your hair system, but leave-in conditioners for hairpieces are ideal because they not only keep hair feeling silky, but many (like Nearly Natural Moisture Mist) also contain sunscreen protection that helps fight hairpiece color fading (oxidation).
Hair System/Wig Block
Heads and half-caps, wig blocks and stands are perfect for wig and hairpiece storage/protection and off-of-head styling. T-pins are an ideal companion product because they hold your hairpiece securely in place when styling and storing on a Styrofoam head or wig block.
What's not on the list?
Ok, so here's our big "duh" list of products we didn't include on our must-have list.

We wouldn't call this a definitive, "be-all-to-end-all" list of products for every single hair-wearer on the face of the planet. Still, it's pretty darn close. Just consider this our, "If I was stranded on an island, I'd want to have these things with me..." kind of list. Really useful products to keep your hair system looking its best for as long as possible.
But everyone is different. Some happy hair-wearers use less products. Other use way more. So it's really up to you to experiment and figure out the perfect products scheme for your noggin.
