Hair Extension Care Instructions
Congratulations on your new hair extensions! To ensure they stay beautiful and last as long as possible, follow these care instructions:
Brush Gently: Use a soft-bristle brush or a loop brush specifically designed for hair extensions. Start from the bottom and work your way up to prevent tangling and minimize shedding.
Wash with Care: Wash your hair extensions only when necessary, typically every 7-14 days, depending on usage. Use a mild shampoo and lukewarm water. Avoid scrubbing vigorously or twisting the extensions.
Condition Regularly: Apply a lightweight conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends of your extensions after shampooing. Avoid the roots to prevent loosening of the bonds or clips. Rinse thoroughly.
Air Dry: Allow your extensions to air dry whenever possible. If using heat styling tools, use a heat protectant spray and set the temperature to a lower setting to prevent damage.
Avoid Overstyling: Limit the use of heat styling tools such as straighteners, curling irons, and blow dryers. Excessive heat can cause dryness, breakage, and premature shedding.
Protect at Night: Before bedtime, loosely braid your hair or tie it in a low ponytail to prevent tangling while you sleep. Consider using a silk or satin pillowcase to minimize friction.
Swimming and Exercise: Before swimming, apply a leave-in conditioner to protect your extensions from chlorine or saltwater damage. After swimming or sweating, rinse your hair thoroughly and apply conditioner as needed.
Storage: When not in use, store your hair extensions in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Keep them in a protective case or box to prevent tangling and dust buildup.
Professional Maintenance: Schedule regular maintenance appointments with your hairstylist to ensure proper care and upkeep of your extensions. They can trim any split ends, adjust the bonds, or reapply tape or clips as needed.
Following these care instructions will help maintain the quality and longevity of your hair extensions, keeping them looking gorgeous and natural for months to come! If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact us for assistance.
