Extension Info

Wash your extensions with care. Shampoo only at the scalp, as the rinse will clean the rest of your hair. Condition from mid-length to the ends, including your natural hair. I recommend using low-sulfate or sulfate-free products for the best results. To keep your extensions in great shape, try washing your hair no more than three times a week.

Please avoid getting self-tanner or most sunscreens on your extensions, as it can alter the color. Swimming pools and saltwater can also affect the hair and color, so always apply a leave-in conditioner before swimming. When swimming or exposed to wind, secure your hair in a braid or ponytail to minimize tangling and damage.

Brush your extensions at least twice a day. I recommend sectioning your hair, starting underneath, and working your way up to the crown, brushing each row individually. Be sure to keep a firm grip on the base of your extensions while brushing. Afterward, apply a hair serum or oil to keep your extensions smooth and shiny.

To protect your extensions from discoloration, choose mineral-based sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide, as these are less likely to affect color. Look for oil-free or non-oily formulas, and consider using hair-specific SPF sprays that are designed to protect your hair from UV damage. Always avoid products with alcohol or artificial colors, as these can alter your hair's appearance.

Always use a heat protectant when styling your extensions. When blow-drying, avoid pulling or tugging too hard on the extensions. Aim to get them mostly dry before finishing with a smoothing brush.

NEVER go to sleep with wet hair, as this can lead to tangling and, in rare cases, fungus or mold.
