What type of shampoos should not be used on wigs?

  1. Sulfur base dandruff shampoos

  2. Moisturizing shampoos

  3. Volume enhancing shampoos

  4. Color-safe shampoos

The correct answer is: Sulfur base dandruff shampoos

Sulfur-based dandruff shampoos should not be used on wigs because they are harsh and can strip the hair of its natural oils, causing it to become dry and brittle. This can lead to tangling and breakage, which is particularly damaging for wigs since they do not receive nutrients from the scalp like natural hair does. Moisturizing shampoos, volume enhancing shampoos, and color-safe shampoos are all safe to use on wigs as they are milder and more gentle on the hair.
