Brush, Brush, Brush

Brushing your hair extensions is as vital as brushing your teeth each morning. Use a soft-bristle brush to gently detangle without causing damage. Start from the ends, just like with your natural hair, and work your way up. Be gentle to avoid breakage and maintain the longevity of your extensions. We have the perfect brush in store that will brush your Extentions perfectly and not damage them.

Wash With Care

Before shampooing, make sure to detangle your hair. Tilt your head back in the shower rather than flipping it over the sink. Opt for a high-quality, sulfate-free shampoo and one the has specific ingredients that Extentions need to stay healthy. Take your time: wet your extensions gradually to prevent tangling, and use a downward motion when applying shampoo and rinsing thoroughly. Never scrub aggressively and never use sea salt scrubs on your extentions.

Condition Like a Pro

After washing, use a nourishing leave-in conditioner from our extension range. Spray or apply it using the same downward motion, carefully brushing out any remaining tangles. Avoid over-applying nourishing products, as too much can make your extensions appear dull and limp, leading to quicker dirt buildup and tangling.

Let Them Dry Naturally

Excessive heat can harm both your natural hair and extensions. Regardless of whether you have extensions, allow your hair to dry naturally. Avoid going to bed with damp hair, as this can lead to tangles and creases.

Blow Dry with Care

When blow-drying your extensions, use a low-heat setting to dry them and the surrounding hair first, then style the rest as usual. Never use styling tools that exceed 200 degrees Celsius. Very important Heat protection is very very important if you want to maximise the health of your Extentions. Melu Heat shield is the best for this.

Sunscreen

Be aware and not many people know this but sun screen can turn your hair fluro orange and its hard to get out. If your going away on holidays be careful not to get sunscreen on them.

Tie Back

If you can’t remove your extensions before sleeping or exercising, pull them back into a ponytail. For sleep, choose a low ponytail or a braid to prevent tangles and creases. For workouts, opt for a high ponytail to reduce sweat exposure.

For Swimmers

If you swim, consider wearing a swim cap, as chlorine and salt water can damage your hair. While a swim cap may not be the most stylish option, it will help prolong the life of your extensions.

Be Gentle with Your Hair

Avoid harsh pulling, wringing, or tightly knotting your hair, as this can damage both your extensions and natural hair, leading to breakage. Treat your hair with care and maintain regular re-lifts to ensure the longevity of your extensions.

Visit Your Stylist Regularly

Even the highest quality extensions require maintenance. We recommend visiting your stylist every 5 to 7 weeks for professional re-fitting and styling.
