Keep Your Extensions Looking Beautiful
BRUSHING:
Use a boar bristle or we brush daily to remove any knots or tangles. Gather the hair into a ponytail and securely hold close to the scalp. Begin brushing from the ends, carefully working your way up toward the scalp. Brushing your hair before it gets wet will keep the hair from tangling while washing.
WASHING:
Brush extensions thoroughly before washing to remove any tangles. Now that your hair is thicker, you may decide to divide the hair into two sections on either side of the head to wash or multiple ponytails and wash section-by-section.
Shampoo:
Use a sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoo. Begin at the scalp and massage shampoo into hair using a "Z" formation. Do not use a circular motion or flip head upside down as this causes tangles. Part hair and rinse all the way to the scalp. If you used the ponytail method to section your hair, rinse one at a time. Follow up with a final rinse.
Condition:
Use a sulfate-free and paraben-free conditioner. Apply conditioner from mid-shaft down to the tips of your hair and leave on for 2-3 minutes. NOTE: Adding conditioner at or near the point of attachment may lead to sliding out. Rinse completely.
DRYING:
Towel or air dry your hair as much as possible before using a blow dryer.
The use of leave-in conditioners, heat protectants, as well as treatment oils from mid-shaft to ends is recommended to protect your extensions. Using a blow dryer, rough-dry the hair. Starting at the ends and working your way up toward the scalp, round brush the hair.
STYLING TOOLS:
Your extensions are safe to use with thermal tools like curling wands, flat irons, etc. Temperature setting depends on your natural hair. You may use between 270°-450° F on your extensions as long as proper heat protectants are applied before styling.
PRODUCTS:
Use professional-grade products to maintain the health of your natural hair and extensions.
SWIMMING:
Prior to entering the ocean, lake, or chlorinated water, we recommend dampening your hair with water and a light coat of conditioner. This will prevent your hair from soaking up harsh chemicals or minerals. Tie your hair in a loose ponytail or braid. Upon exiting the water, wash or hair in lukewarm water with a generous amount of deep conditioner.
Any adhesive method requires 24-48 hours of drying prior to any contact with water. Direct heat to the point of installation is not recommended. When using hot equipment for styling, heat two inches below the point of installation.
SLEEPING:
Brush hair gently and loosely braid before sleeping. Do not go to bed with wet hair as it can cause tangling close to the scalp. If this occurs , schedule an appointment ASAP to remove immediately.
COLORING:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COLOR YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS AT HOME.
SUNSCREENS:
Avoid the use of chemical-based sunscreens as this can discolor the hair.
MOVE-UPS:
Every 4-6 weeks, your extensions will need to be moved up by a certified professional. This will reduce tension and prevent matting.
