Caring For Your Hair

The most important thing to know about caring for human hair extensions is to be gentle. Without proper care and treatment your hair extensions will get damaged quicker than if you look after them. 

You can shampoo and condition your extensions as you would your natural hair. It is important to brush your extensions through before washing them to help reduce breakage when removing tangles. Be sure to use a moisturising shampoo and conditioner as the hair extensions will not benefit from the natural oils your scalp produces. 

Deep conditioning your extensions is very important. After shampooing, pat any excess water off the extensions with a towel and apply an intensive conditioning treatment. Leave on the hair extensions for 20-30 minutes and then rinse with warm water. This extra TLC will give your extensions a moisture boost and help keep them shiny and tangle free. 

Be sure to check your extensions every 6-10 weeks for any damage to the ends just as you would on your own natural hair. Split ends on hair extensions are very easy to fix. You can trim the split ends from  the extensions just as you would your natural hair.
