Hair extensions are a beautiful investment, and with proper care, they’ll enhance your look for months to come. Follow this guide to ensure your extensions remain luxurious, vibrant, and long-lasting.
STEPS TO TAKE BEFORE YOUR APPLICATION:
DO NOT SHAMPOO HAIR FOR 24-48 HOURS AFTER COMPLETING THE HAIR EXTENSIONS APPLICATION.
Keep in mind that hair extensions, although made of human hair, will not last forever. Because there is no root, there is no source of moisture or nutrients. This means that excessive use of heating tools will shorten the life of your hair extensions.
Paying close attention to labels is very important when it comes to keeping your hair healthy and helping your hair extensions last longer. Avoid silicone-based products as well as products that contain Sodium Lauryl and Laureth Sulfate (SLS). SLS are cleansing agents used in most cleansing products like shampoos and toothpaste. With constant use, these sulfates slowly strip away the color and moisture of your hair leaving it dull and dry.
Oil the mid to ends of the hair at least once a day.
Everyone’s hair is different! Some people’s hair will last a few months without any hair extensions sliding off; unfortunately, this is not the case for everyone. This depends on your natural hair type.
Keeping hair extensions for a long period of time is not recommended. They must be reapplied every 2-4 months to ensure no damage occurs to your own natural hair.
HOW TO PROPERLY CARE FOR YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS EVERY DAY TO HELP THEM LAST LONGER:
BRUSHING AND DETANGLING:
SLEEPING:
CLIP-IN HAIR EXTENSIONS:
*** NEVER go to sleep with your clip-in hair extensions ***
SWIMMING, TANNING BEDS, and SUNSCREEN:
LIFESPAN:
NATURAL HAIR SHEDDING PROCESS:
On average, we lose around 50 hairs per day as part of our natural process. However, when you are wearing hair extensions, shed hair that would normally come out during brushing or in the shower will still be attached to the extension and will not come out until the extension is removed. When the hair extensions are removed, the shed hair is combed out and it appears as though a lot of hair is coming out all at once. There’s no need to be concerned that your hair is falling out during this process, as this is simply the naturally shed hair being released during the removal process.
Your hair extensions are more than just an accessory—they’re a statement of your style and confidence.
By following this guide, you’re ensuring that your investment in beauty continues to shine. From gentle daily routines to protective practices, these steps will help you preserve the elegance and vibrancy of your extensions.
Remember, luxurious hair starts with thoughtful care, and the time you take to nurture your extensions will reward you with stunning, head-turning results every day.
