💁‍♀️ How to Travel with Wigs Like a Pro

Let’s talk wig travel tips! Whether you’re headed to a tropical escape or a city break, here’s what I recommend to keep your wigs looking flawless:

1. Bring More Than One Wig

Pack 2-3 options: a lightweight, breathable wig for daytime and a glam one for dinners or nights out. I packed a long synthetic style for splashing around in the pool and ocean, a hat wig for lounging and a lace top human hair piece for evenings.

2. Use Wig Cases or Silk Bags

Store your wigs in structured travel cases or silk-lined bags to avoid tangles and flattening. Always keep your wigs with you in your carry-on or personal item, don’t pack them in checked luggage!

3. Keep a Comb + Detangler on Hand

Beach wind + wig fibers = tangles. Toss a wide-tooth comb and travel-size detangler in your bag to stay fresh on the go.

4. Skip the Glue in Humid Climates

In tropical spots like Mexico, humidity can be brutal on adhesives. I recommend glueless wigs, wig grip bands, or headband wigs instead of lace glue.

5. Accessorize Smart

Think hats, silk scarves, big sunnies—they protect your wig and elevate your look. I rocked baseball caps poolside and a wide-brim hat for exploring.

6. Store Safely in the Hotel

Hang wigs from the nape on a boot clip or use a travel wig stand that you can pack flat in your luggage. Always be sure to keep your wigs in a cool, shaded spot. At Belmond Maroma, the spacious closets were perfect for keeping everything organized and protected.

7. Choose Low-Maintenance Styles

Stick with styles that don’t require heat tools or a ton of upkeep. Vacation is about relaxing—not restyling every morning!
