Hair Care Tips
Hey Gorgeous!
Having the perfect hair care routine is extremely important, especially when you are dealing with 100% unprocessed human hair and while maintaining its luxurious look for years to come. One of the most important things about RAW hair extensions is that you have to care for the hair just like you would your natural hair and be VERY Gentle. When you are brushing and combing your hair, please take your time. Keep in mind that without the proper hair care treatment, the quality of your hair extensions will damage quickly.
Here below we have provided you with step-by-step instructions on how properly care for your hair extensions.
PRE-INSTALLATION
Co-washing our hair extensions is highly recommended before installation to keep the hair soft and manageable.
INSTALLATION
Use the over and out method when installing your hair. Please avoid piercing the wefts as this can cause excessive shedding. We recommend utilizing the flip-over method instead of cutting the wefts to prevent the hair from shedding and the weft from unraveling. Only cut your wefts when absolutely necessary and seal your wefts with good quality weft sealant. Once installation is complete, brush your hair to remove any loose hairs.
DAILY CARE
When brushing your hair, please be gentle and start from the bottom, and continue to work your way up to the root.
Apply an alcohol-free glossing polish or hair serum for shine and frizz control as needed. Avoid the use of oil-based products to prevent build-up, which will lead to stiff hair and may cause matting and tangling.
Minimize the use of hot styling tools and always apply a heat protectant. Please keep in mind that excessive heat styling can alter the original wave pattern and integrity of the hair.
WEEKLY CARE
Co-washing hair is recommended once a week. This is to ensure your hair is retaining moisture and periodically cleansing any build-up that could cause matting or tangling. Depending on the amount of build up and how stiff the hair is the we recommend up to 3 days. Should your hair need deep conditioning, apply a thick deep conditioner treatment once a week for optimal protection against environmental damage.
BEDTIME CARE
Before going to bed brush or comb your hair with detangling brush or wide tooth comb. Wrap your hair with a satin scarf or bonnet to protect your hair. Never sleep with wet extensions. Thoroughly dry your hair before going to bed to avoid tangling.
