HAIR EXTENSION AFTERCARE
Do not skip out on your at home care! These instructions will ensure the health and quality of your brand new extensions, and your natural hair, so please review them thoroughly.
CLEANSE
Use a salon quality shampoo & conditioner to prolong your hair color and extensions. Gently shampoo all of your hair, I recommend a double washing to fully clean. Afterwards, apply a moisturizing conditioner to the mid shaft and ends of your hair only and fully rinse, ensuring no product is left behind.
SWIM
If you are going to swim with your extensions, apply a mask or leave in conditioner to your hair and braid it prior to getting wet. Always choose a mineral sunscreen, avoiding the ingredient “avobenzone”. By not following these recommendations, you are at risk of hair discoloration, tangling and excessive dryness.
brush & dry
Apply a detangling product throughout your hair, avoiding the weft line. Rough dry wefts 80% of the way with a hair dryer. Then, gently dry by using your Wet Brush and start from the ends of your hair, working your way up. Make sure to hold the top of your extensions to reduce tension. Brush all the way up to the top of your hair to avoid matting & tangling. AIR DRYING IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
SLEEP
Apply a hydrating oil on the mid shaft and ends of your hair and then brush thoroughly. Always go to bed with your hair 100% DRY. I recommend sleeping in a low ponytail or braids to ensure there are no tangles. Bonus: Use a silk pillowcase or bonnet.
