Argan Smooth is Jon Renau's answer for human hair wigs, and it is our top human hair pick. Human hair on a wig gets no oil from your scalp, so it dries faster than your own hair, and Jon Renau built this cleanser around that: it is a gentle lathering, color safe shampoo infused with argan oil that the brand says removes the dry or brittle feeling while keeping the color safe and the hair shiny. It is sulfate, paraben and sodium chloride free. The directions match Fiber Love: cool running water, a small amount worked in with your palm, no scrubbing and no soaking. Best Wig Outlet sold the 2.5 fl oz bottle for $12.10 when we checked, and an 8.5 oz bottle and a matching Argan Smooth conditioner are also sold. Like Fiber Love, it is sold through wig retailers rather than directly by Jon Renau.
