Hair Extension Aftercare
Follow These Tips to Keep Your Extensions Gorgeous & Healthy
-
Use sulfate and paraben free shampoos to protect the hair’s natural oils and prevent dryness or colour fading. Harsh cleansers can damage both extensions and natural hair.
Avoid rubbing or towel-drying aggressively. Gently squeeze out excess water and let your hair air-dry or use a low heat setting with a heat protectant spray InStyle.
-
Wrap with a silk or satin scarf or use a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and matting while you sleep
Try two loose braids at night—this keeps hair contained and offers easy waves the next day.
-
Always brush from the ends upward before sleeping, showering, or styling to prevent tangles and stress on bonds
Use extension-safe tools—avoid paddle brushes near bonds or tapes; opt for soft, flexible bristles instead Hair Candy Extensions.
-
Always apply heat protectant before using styling tools to maintain moisture and shine Hair Extensions
Limit sun, saltwater, and chlorine exposure. If needed, rinse extensions after swimming and use UV or leave-in protection to maintain integrity and colour of Hair Extensions .
-
Deep cleanse and condition your natural hair with a sulfate-free shampoo and nourishing mask to help restore moisture and remove buildup
Avoid the urge to wash too frequently post-removal; your natural hair needs time to recover
