💁♀️How to Care for Your Extensions
Great extensions deserve great care. Follow these simple, brand-approved steps to keep your hair looking luxurious and feeling healthy from day one.
The First 48 Hours
Don’t shampoo for at least 48 hours after application so the attachment sites can properly set.
Washing & Conditioning
Use aftercare products designed for extensions to protect the attachment area and maximize wear.
When shampooing, lather gently from roots to tips—avoid rough scrubbing around attachments.
Rinse with your head slightly tilted back so water flows down the lengths to help prevent knotting.
Apply conditioner or a mask to the mid-lengths and ends (keep product away from the attachment sites).
Drying & Brushing
Blot excess water—don’t rub hair with a towel.
Detangle with a wide-tooth comb or extension-safe brush, working from ends upward and being extra gentle near attachments.
Daily Styling & Protection
Keep oils/serums on the lengths only, not on the bonds/attachment area.
If you’ve used lots of styling product, follow with Anti-Tap Water to help clear residue and rebalance after wet treatments.
For sleep, workouts, windy days, sauna, or swimming, secure hair in a loose braid or low ponytail to minimize tangling and tension on attachments.
Ongoing Maintenance
Brush regularly and always dry your hair after washing; extension hair may also need more frequent gentle brushing than usual.
Book your stylist for periodic check-ins so everything keeps performing as expected.
