HAIR CARE

1. Before shampooing, thoroughly detangle the hair using a Denman brush, paddle brush, or extensions brush. Start from the ends and work your way up to the roots, being gentle to avoid causing damage to the hair.

2. Use a hydrating cleansing shampoo that is sulfate-free and specifically designed for use with hair extensions. Gently massage the shampoo into the scalp and through the lengths of the hair, being careful to avoid excessive rubbing or tangling.

3. Rinse the hair thoroughly with lukewarm water, ensuring that all shampoo is completely removed from the hair.

4. Follow with a deep conditioner, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends of the hair. Leave the conditioner on for the recommended time, and use a wide-tooth comb, Denman or paddle brush to gently brush through the hair while the conditioner is applied to remove any remaining tangles.

5. Rinse the hair thoroughly with cold water until all conditioner is rinsed out, and then gently squeeze out excess water from the hair. (For curly textures, rinse about 85% of the conditioner from the hair and allow it to air dry.)

6. Allow the hair to air dry while hung to maintain its natural texture and prevent tangling.

1. Minimize the use of heat styling tools such as flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers. Excessive heat can cause damage to the hair over time.

2. Opt for heatless styling methods like wrapping the hair, using flexi rods, pin curls, braids, or other heatless techniques to achieve desired styles without subjecting the hair to high temperatures.

1. Treat the hair extensions as you would your natural hair, being gentle and using care to avoid unnecessary stress or damage.

2. Avoid sleeping with wet or damp hair, as this can lead to tangling and matting.

3. Use a silk or satin pillowcase or hair wrap to reduce friction and minimize tangles while sleeping.

4. When exercising or swimming, tie the hair up to prevent tangling and minimize exposure to sweat, chlorine, or salt water.

5. Regularly brush and detangle the hair using a suitable brush or comb designed for extensions to prevent matting and tangling.

6. Avoid using products containing alcohol, oil, or silicone near the roots of the hair, as these can cause slippage of extensions or buildup.

7. Schedule regular maintenance appointments with a professional stylist experienced in working with hair extensions to ensure proper care and upkeep.
