After installation, avoid washing your hair for at least 48 hours. This allows the bonds (tape-ins, keratin bonds, etc.) or wefts to set properly.
Brush Regularly: Use a loop or soft bristle brush specifically designed for extensions to avoid snagging on the bonds. Start brushing from the ends, working your way up to the roots.
Detangle Gently: Hold the base of the extensions while brushing to prevent pulling on your natural hair or the bonds.
Frequency: Wash your hair 2-3 times a week to prevent drying out the extensions.
Shampoo: Use a sulfate-free, extension-friendly shampoo to maintain the integrity of the hair and bonds.
Conditioner: Apply conditioner mainly to the mid-lengths and ends of your hair, avoiding the roots and bonds to prevent slippage.
Towel Drying: Gently blot (don’t rub) your hair with a towel to remove excess water.
Blow Drying: Always blow-dry the roots and bonds after washing to prevent bonds from weakening. Use a medium heat setting and dry your hair in sections, starting at the roots.
Heat Styling: Limit the use of heat styling tools such as flat irons and curling wands to avoid drying out the extensions. Consider a heatless curl method. Use a heat protectant spray before any styling.
Avoid Bonds: Keep heat tools away from the bonds to prevent melting or loosening.
Hair Ties: Use soft, fabric hair ties or scrunchies to avoid pulling or damaging the extensions.
Braiding: Before bed, loosely braid your hair or tie it in a low ponytail to prevent tangling.
Satin Pillowcase: Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase to minimize friction, reducing tangling and frizz.
Tie Hair Up: Before swimming or exercising, tie your hair up in a bun or braid to reduce exposure to chlorine, saltwater, or sweat.
Rinse Immediately: After swimming, rinse your hair with fresh water immediately to remove any salt, chlorine, or chemicals that could damage the extensions.
Use a Swim Cap: For extra protection, consider wearing a swim cap while in the water.
Regular Check-ups: Visit us for regular maintenance appointments (typically every 4-6 weeks) to ensure the extensions are secure and healthy.
Avoid DIY Adjustments: Never attempt to remove or adjust the extensions yourself. If you notice slippage or loosening, contact us help.
Do: Handle your extensions with care, keeping them clean and properly styled.
Don’t: Tug or pull on the extensions, use harsh chemicals, or excessively heat-style them.
By following these aftercare tips, your hair extensions will remain healthy, shiny, and long-lasting.
