hair extensions aftercare

Human Hair : Do's

🩷Brush your hair extensions to ensure they are tangle free. Starting from the ends hold a section of hair with one hand whilst detangling to avoid any pressure or tension on the natural hair. Then work your way up.
🩷Make sure to thoroughly dry your hair after washing or wetting using a low heat
🩷Always use a heat protection spray and low heat when styling
🩷Plait hair before sleeping to avoid matting
🩷Book in for a tighten of your weave within 4 weeks of initial fitting to ensure there is no matting or extensive regrowth
🩷Shampoo your hair with recommended shampoo and apply conditioner only on the ends of your hair and rinse thoroughly - we recommend Olaplex and Neal and Wolf
🩷When shampooing your hair wash it standing upright in the shower to ensure the extensions do not tangle. Tipping your head upside down over a bath or sink will cause them to become knotted.
🩷Leave conditioner in for 3–5 minutes before rinsing and comb through your hair extensions. We recommend removing excess water by patting the hair before applying conditioner
🩷Condition the hair from the ponytail down avoiding contact with the root area however you can apply conditioner generously throughout the ends
🩷Use hair oil on the ends to keep them looking silky
🩷Brush your scalp at least twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening to keep your hair extensions clean at the root area with your extension brush
🩷When swimming always tie your hair in a ponytail or braid and apply conditioner to the hair to act as a barrier against harmful chlorine/salt water etc. Always shampoo immediately after swimming and detangle as normal
🩷Always cover your hair when in direct sunlight for long periods of time, if you have tapes this is especially important as the glue may melt
🩷Always dry off the roots and tape area of your hair extensions to ensure the holding agent in the tape has dried completely to ensure maximum strength of application

Human Hair : Don'ts

❌Don’t go to bed with wet hair
❌Don’t shampoo over the bath as it may create problems when detangling
❌Don’t attempt to maintain or adjust the fitting yourself. Any issues - leave it to the professionals
❌Don’t leave your extensions in for longer than 3 months or 8-10 weeks if your natural hair is fine. If your hair extensions are left in for longer than the recommended time some damage may occur
❌Don’t leave your hair wet for longer periods of time without detangling as it may become matted
❌Don’t use any hot tools on your extensions WITHOUT using a recommended heat protector. Comb through your hair to ensure the product is evenly distributed
❌Don’t allow bronzers/fake tans/sun creams or products with tint in them to make contact with your hair extensions. Blonde especially may experience colour changes
❌Do not use any random products on your extensions, take a look at our below recommended list for best results
