IN THE SHOWER

• Wash days can be a long haul, you may find yourself adjusting to going 3, 4, even a full week between washing and that is another one of the perks of extensions! They hold their style and look great for days!

• Brush your hair before showering. Start at the ends and work up to the roots making sure to hold the base of the extensions.

• Only use sulfate-free shampoos.

• Do not use purple shampoo on the extensions unless it is very very VERY diluted.

• Wash and rinse between each weft. Lift up each row while rinsing. Shampoo as many times as it takes to get a good lather. 2 or 3 times may be needed.

• Do not rub the lengths of your extensions. Instead, simply squeeze the remaining shampoo into them to cleanse any product build-up away.

• Avoid conditioner along your tracks as this can encourage beads to slip and buildup to occur.

• Use a wet brush to de-tangle while your conditioner is in. (Between your wefts too).

• Use a deep conditioner every 3rd or 4th wash day.

• Use a clarifying shampoo at the roots to cleanse away product build-up when needed. (About once a month)

 

(You can use a separate sulfate-free shampoo or treatments on your top half if you find what you are using for the extensions is too heavy for your natural hair)

 

STYLING

• Apply a leave-in conditioner or detangling product before brushing your freshly washed hair.

• Try not to exceed medium heat while blow-drying. Use a concentration attachment while directing airflow down the strand. Do not blow-dry upside down.

• Use hair oil or cream through the lengths of your extensions.

• Avoid products at the root near your tracks (IE: no dry shampoo or root lifter along tracks) as it is hard to shampoo out later on and we don't want to create buildup.

• Do not exceed 350 when iron styling.

• If you would like to let the lengths air dry, at least blow dry the roots of the extensions completely.

• Brush hair throughout the day.
