Extension Care Guide
Your dream hair deserves the best care. With a few simple habits, your extensions will stay soft, shiny, and healthy between every appointment.
1
Daily care
Your extensions are an investment — treat them gently each day.
-
Brush morning and night using a detangling brush. Hold the base of your extensions to avoid tension on the beads or bonds.
-
Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to keep your color vibrant and your extensions hydrated.
-
Always apply a heat protectant before styling with hot tools.
-
Avoid oils or heavy products near your roots — they can cause slipping.
-
💡 Pro tip: Sleep with your hair in a low braid or ponytail to prevent tangling while you rest.
2
Washing and Drying
-
Detangle before washing.
-
Gently massage your scalp — don’t scrub near your attachment points.
-
Focus conditioner and masks from mid-lengths to ends only.
-
Gently towel-dry (no rough rubbing), then blow-dry the roots right away to prevent moisture buildup.
3
Styling and Products
-
Keep your extensions looking fresh and silky with quality products and mindful styling.
-
Use salon-recommended products only — they’re formulated to protect both your hair and your extensions.
-
Limit heat to 350°F or below.
-
Apply oils and serums from the mid-lengths down.
-
Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce frizz and preserve your style.

Maintenance Appointments
-
Extensions grow with your natural hair — to keep them comfortable and seamless, regular maintenance is key.
-
Schedule move-up appointments every 6–8 weeks.
-
Never try to remove or adjust extensions at home.
-
Bring your stylist-recommended products to appointments if you have any questions about usage or product build-up.

Reach out to me as soon as possible — it’s a quick fix when caught early.
​
"Can I swim or work out with extensions?"
Yes! Braid your hair first, and rinse thoroughly afterward to remove sweat or chlorine.
