Hair extensions give instant length and volume – and with the right care they stay soft, glossy and natural-looking for months. These are the seven habits we share with every extensions client.
1. Brush the right way
Use a soft-bristle or loop brush. Hold the hair near the roots with one hand and brush from the ends upward, so you never pull on the bonds.
2. Wash with care
Choose a sulphate-free shampoo and wash in a downward motion. Avoid piling hair on top of your head, which causes tangles.
3. Condition the lengths only
Apply conditioner from mid-lengths to ends and keep it away from the bonds or tapes so they stay secure.
4. Dry before bed – always
Never sleep with wet extensions. Dry the roots and bonds fully with a cool or warm setting.
5. Protect against heat
Use a heat protectant and keep styling tools at a moderate temperature, away from the attachment points.
6. Sleep smart
Tie your hair in a loose braid or low ponytail and use a silk pillowcase to reduce friction.
7. Keep your maintenance appointments
As your natural hair grows, extensions need to be moved up and re-secured. Regular visits keep them comfortable and invisible.
