1. Gently Brush Your Extensions
Yes, there is a right way to brush your extensions! Brushing your hair every day is essential to keeping your hair looking top notch. We recommend brushing your teeth first thing in the morning, after washing your hair and at night before going to bed. Use a soft bristled wet brush. Divide your hair into small sections and brush starting at the ends and working your way up to the roots. Hold the hair from the roots to avoid excessive stress on the strands or joining points.
2. Do Not Sleep with Wet Hair
One of the basic rules to extending the life of your hair extensions is to never sleep with wet or damp hair. Moisture left overnight can lead to matting which can be a disaster. If you toss and turn at night with wet hair, your hair can dry into mattes which can be nearly impossible to get out without causing damage to your extensions and even your natural hair. Trust us, this is an important tip - don't sleep with wet extensions. Make sure your extensions are completely dry before hitting the pillow.
3. Use Extension-Friendly Products
You just made a big investment in the hair of your dreams - don't make the mistake of using cheap products! Hair extensions aren't just like our natural hair, they require extra moisture and high-end products to look their best. Hair extensions are heavily processed and require salon-quality products to stay hydrated, healthy and long-lasting.
4. Commit to Regular Maintenance
Just like a car needs regular adjustments, hair extensions need regular maintenance. Depending on the clip type, the stylist will reposition, tighten, or replace any clips that become loose over time. Sticking to a maintenance appointment will ensure that your hair extensions stay safe and your hair stays healthy.
In the world of hair extensions, the adage "good hair is not cheap, cheap hair is bad" rings true. Investing in quality extensions means investing in your confidence, appearance, and overall health. By following these tips provided and performing a consistent care routine, you can not only keep your extensions beautiful, but also protect the health of your natural hair. Remember, taking time to take care of your extension is also taking care of your own extension.
