- Cleanse your hair 2–3 times per week using your recommended shampoo and conditioning treatment.
- Before showering, gently brush through your hair to remove any tangles and prevent additional matting while washing.
- If you wear multiple rows of extensions, clip the top row up to ensure you’re able to thoroughly cleanse between each row.
- Avoid rubbing the ends of your extensions together, as this can cause tangling and damage.
- Apply conditioner from mid-lengths to ends, avoiding excessive product at the scalp.
- Keep a wide-tooth comb or wet brush in the shower to gently detangle your hair while the conditioner is in.
- Incorporate a clarifying shampoo as needed to remove product buildup and minerals—especially if you are not washing daily.
- Take extra care to fully rinse out all shampoo and conditioner to prevent residue buildup.
- After washing, wrap your hair in a terry cloth head wrap to absorb excess moisture without causing friction.
- Gently brush your hair multiple times throughout the day to prevent tangling and matting.
- Always brush with intention and care to protect the integrity of both your extensions and natural hair.
- When brushing, hold your extensions at the base to avoid unnecessary tension or pulling.
- Avoid brushing directly at the scalp or attachment points, as this can cause snagging and damage to the foundation of your extensions.
- Always apply a leave-in conditioner before blow drying to maintain moisture, softness, and overall hair health.
- After washing, gently squeeze excess water from your hair—avoid rubbing the ends together, as this can cause tangling and damage.
- Wrap your hair in a terry cloth towel to absorb excess moisture while minimizing friction.
- Using a wet brush or wide-tooth comb, carefully detangle your hair, avoiding the base of your extensions.
- Be mindful not to snag the attachment points, as this can compromise both the wefts and your natural hair.
- Investing in a high-quality blow dryer will significantly reduce drying time and help extend the life of your extensions.
- Section your hair by clipping up each row, and dry one row at a time for a thorough, polished result.
- Use your wet brush while blow drying to gently smooth the hair.
- Once your extensions are about 80–90% dry, switch to a round brush to refine, smooth, and complete the style.
- Avoid going to bed with wet hair, as this can lead to tangling and matting. While air drying is perfectly fine, it’s best done during the day—not overnight.
- Before bed, secure your hair in a loose braid, pigtail braids, or a low bun to help maintain smoothness and prevent tangling while you sleep.
- We highly recommend sleeping on a silk pillowcase.
- Silk pillowcases create less friction, helping to minimize tangling, reduce breakage, and protect both your extensions and natural hair.
- Avoid sleeping on wet extensions, as this can lead to tangling, matting, and unnecessary stress on both your extensions and natural hair.
- Use only stylist-recommended products. Extensions can react unpredictably to certain ingredients, which may compromise their quality, color, and longevity.
- For blondes: avoid getting sunscreen on your extensions—avobenzone can cause discoloration, often turning extensions pink. Opt for a mineral sunscreen that is free of avobenzone for a safer alternative.
- Limit exposure to river and lake water when possible. Naturally occurring minerals can cause discoloration, especially in lighter extension shades.
- Avoid swimming in chlorinated pools, as chlorine can dry out the hair and alter the tone of your extensions.
