AFTERCARE

It is strongly advised that you don't wash your hair for at least 48h after having your hair extensions fitted, this is because the bonds need time to set to avoid them becoming softer and weaker in the future. Please try to wash your hair a maximum of 2 to 3 times a week if possible, this is because the less stress you put on the hair the better, if your roots get greasy then try and keep them clean so the extensions don't slip. Always use a shampoo an conditioner recommended for hair extensions only, this is because normal high street brands contain silicone based ingredients which will cause the extensions to weaken and break down. To wash where the extensions are, only use a hair extensions shampoo as it will not loosen them. it is necessary to condition the extension hair to keep it in optimum condition, it is vital however that you do not get conditioner on the actual roots as the extensions may weaken and become soft. Remember to always take good care of your hair, gently dry it and do not take any shortcuts when caring for it. 

Hair extensions last longer and look better when taken proper care of. It is best to use a hair extension loop brush but not required, this is because normal brushes with balls on the end can rip and break the hair. Try to brush your hair everyday to prevent any matting/tangling. 

It is advisable to tie your hair into a loose ponytail whilst sleeping, this will minimize tangling and knotting when you sleep. You can style your hair extensions just as you would with your normal hair, you can straighten, curl, blow-dry, dye, crimp and cut them because they are human Remy hair., just ensure that you don't continually bleach them because they may start to look less shiny as they don't receive the vitamins from your scalp like your own hair does. 

It is strongly advised to schedule maintenance/putting beads back up every 4 to 5 weeks. 

After having your hair extensions fitted, you will find that some of the extensions may come out. this is nothing abnormal, in fact the majority of people lose only 1 or 2 extensions where as others lose up to 20! This is why it's essential to have regular maintenance appointments to prevent this from happening. If you do see any of your own hairs coming out after having your extensions maintained, don't panic! These are due to the natural daily shedding of your hair, but  you will notice it more because you have had extensions fitted, I find that most of my clients's hair improves quality after having hair extensions because they are doing less heat/product damage during the months of having them.
