Calling all Extension Girlies!
This one’s for you! Aftercare is a must to keep your hair and your extension hair as healthy & long lasting as possible.
care routine
on the Daily
+ brush hair at least two times a day to discourage tangles
+ make sure to brush in between your rows
+ always use a serum or (clear) oil to moisturize the ends of your extensions at least two times a day
+ sleep in a protective style; i like to do a braid
on the Weekly
+ come in every six to eight weeks to get your extensions tightened and refreshed
+ i highly recommend weekly hair-masking to promote moisture
+ invest in a shower head filter to deter harsh minerals and hard water build up
+ shampoo twice, and make sure to rinse thoroughly
+ coat your mids and ends with a generous amount of conditioner. let it sit
+ blow dry your extensions, ESPECIALLY the root area
Avoid
+ avoid sleeping with wet hair at all costs
+ steer clear of chemical-based sunscreens containing avobenzone & octocrylene, as they can cause the hair to turn orange or pink
+ keep heat styling to a minimum
+ stay away from oils that are not clear; the extension hair is very porous & it will absorb the oil's color
+ no purple shampoo
+ refrain from applying conditioner at your roots; this may cause your extensions to slip
+ do not let your extensions air-dry
+ keep away from chlorinated pools
+ no products containing sulfates or parabens
