Please make sure all clients follow the below protocol to maintain the life of their extensions.
Gentle Detangling:
Use a wide-toothed comb or a special hair extension brush to detangle your hair extensions.
Start from the ends and work your way up gradually to prevent breakage.
When the hair is dry, use a soft-bristle brush or loop brush to minimize the risk of tangling and breakage, ensuring that your hair extensions stay in optimal condition.
Wash with Care:
Use a sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoo to cleanse the hair extensions. Make sure it’s a moistorizing shampoo made for extensions. B3 Brazilian Bond Builder Trio is our recommended product line
Avoid washing them too frequently; 1-2 times a week is usually sufficient.
Gently wash in a downward motion to avoid tangling.
Condition Regularly:
Apply a moisturizing conditioner to keep the hair extensions soft and manageable.
Focus on the mid-lengths to the ends, avoiding the attachment points.
Keep the Ends Oiled:
Since the ends of hair extensions don't receive natural oils from the scalp, apply a small amount of lightweight hair oil to keep them moisturized.
K18 oil or Verb Ghost oil are our recommendations
Avoid Heat Damage:
Limit the use of hot styling tools such as flat irons and curling irons.
If you must use heat, apply a heat protectant spray to prevent damage.
Protect During Sleep:
Tie your hair in a loose braid or ponytail before bedtime to minimize tangling.
Use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent breakage.
Never sleep on wet hair, as it is more prone to damage.
Use Quality Products:
Choose hair care products specifically designed for extensions.
Avoid products with alcohol, as they can dry out and damage the hair.
Protect from Sun and Pool Water:
Wear a hat or use UV protection sprays when exposed to sunlight for extended periods.
Prior to swimming, apply a leave-in conditioner and tie hair up to protect from chlorine and saltwater.
Avoid Excessive Tension:
Be gentle when styling and tying your hair to prevent stress on the attachment points.
Avoid tight hairstyles that may pull on the extensions.
Regular Checkups:
Schedule regular visits to your stylist to ensure the extensions are in good condition.
The ends may need a regular trim with each move up, just like regular hair.
Address any maintenance issues promptly to prevent damage.
