Home Care Is a Must

Home care instructions for extensions is a MUST. A few simple habits are the difference between extensions that stay soft, seamless, and reusable - and hair that tangles, mats, or fades early. Here's exactly how to care for yours.

💧

step one

Washing

You will want to wash your hair less often. If you find you must wash more frequently, try washing only the hair on top of the highest row, or using dry shampoo in between washes.

Once a week, use a mask to deep condition your extensions and keep them soft and hydrated.

step two

Brushing

Brush thoroughly, holding the base of the extensions while you brush. Work your way up from the bottom to get all the tangles and knots out.

Be sure you are brushing thoroughly to prevent the hair from matting - matting causes damage to your own hair and to the extensions. If extensions become matted, it will be impossible to reuse them.

✦ Use a wet brush or an extension brush with metal bristles.

step three

Styling

Use a hair oil daily to keep your extensions nourished and glossy.

Hand-tied wefts must be blow dried completely at the base after washing. Otherwise, swelling of the weft may occur, which can make them unsafe to reinstall.

Although the micro-weft collection does not swell at the base, always dry the weft line to prevent scalp irritation - especially post-workout and after sauna or steam room use.

step four

Sleeping

Brush thoroughly before going to bed. A low three-strand braid or two French braids are the most secure options for wearing your hair overnight.

Silk scrunchies, scarves, and pillowcases are highly recommended to keep everything smooth while you sleep.

Sunscreen

Avoid sunscreen containing oxybenzone and avobenzone. They cause a chemical reaction that can stain extensions pink/orange - and it cannot be removed easily, if at all.

Chlorine & Salt Water

In chlorine pools, it's best not to get your hair wet to prevent discolouration, tangles, matting, and damage. Before salt water, prep your hair by wetting it and applying a layer of leave-in conditioner.

Beach Days

Reapply leave-in conditioner throughout the day, and wash your hair thoroughly afterwards.
