Hair Extension After Care
Washing Your Extensions
- Always remove all tangles from your hair before washing, wash your hair upside down with a shower (never in bathwater) making sure you rinse until the water runs clean.
- Condition away from the bonds, leave the conditioner in for about 5 mins before rinsing thoroughly, until water runs clean again.
- Wash your hair at least 3 times a week. Never let your hair get greasy as this can damage the bonds.
- You can use “leave in detangler spray” if your hair is long. Do not spray on bonds.
- If you get a knot in your hair, hold the hair at the bond and comb through carefully.
- Only use products recommended by The Hair Extension Co.
- Never rub the hair with the towel to dry or leave in towel.
- Never go to bed with damp hair.
Drying Your Extensions
- If you want to leave your hair to dry naturally, always dry off the bonds with a cool heat.
- Never blow dry your hair on a hot setting with the nozzle close to the bonds as this could melt the bonds.
- Dry at least 4″ away from the bonds.
General Information & Care
- Always tie your hair back at night when you go to bed, this will avoid your hair getting tangled and keep it tidy.
- If you go swimming in a pool or the sea, always put your hair into a plait, leave it in until you are ready to wash your hair when you have finished swimming, wash and condition as normal.
- We recommend you run your fingers through your hair every day from the roots, to avoid your natural hair loss tangling at the bonds.
- Never use hot oil treatments or shine sprays on your hair.
- We recommend a monthly maintenance check, so we can make sure you are looking after your extensions, so they will last.
