Protect your investment

Your hair is your crown, and taking care of your extension investment is important for it's longevity and the health of your scalp. Below you'll find our comprehensive guide on how to keep your extensions in tip top shape. 

Washing / Brushing

  • Brush out extensions with this brush BEFORE washing, this helps to prevent tangles and matting in wet hair.
  • Follow your stylists product recommendations. (Below is a list of our recommended products, unless your stylist recommends an alternative for you.)
  • Shampoo gently between rows, no need for vigorous scrubbing.
  • Apply a detangler and oil prior to brushing through wet hair after washing.
  • When brushing, start from your ends and work your way up to the scalp. Hold hair in one hand (like a ponytail) and brush down.

Styling

  • Section your natural hair from your extensions, pin your natural hair up, and dry extensions FIRST, this will prevent over-drying your natural hair.
  •  Rough dry your extensions 80% of the way just using your dryer and hands. (no tugging on super damp hair with a brush) This applies to DRY BARS as well. If you love a weekly blowout, be sure to communicate to the artist styling your hair to NOT round brush extensions from wet to dry. 
  • When curling, run your section of hair through the curling iron to smooth once or twice before placing curls. This will give your extensions a more polished look.
