Extension Care

Tape-Ins and Beaded Weft

Washing

Do not wash your hair or the extensions for 48 hours after installation.

Please use the products recommended by your stylist as we cannot guarantee the health of the extensions otherwise. When washing tilt the head to each side and gently scrub between the bonded area to ensure no build up is clogging the hair follicle. 

Please avoid conditioner at the root as it can cause tape extensions to lose their adhesion and slip in the hair.

Brushing

Gently hold the hair like a pony tail at the base of the neck, brush gently from the bottom up as to not tug on the extensions. We recommend using a Tangle Teezer hair brush for this. Once the ends have been detangled you may brush over the bonds. This helps discourage any matting from happening above the bonds.

Brushing before the shower and before bed will help your extensions be more manageable.

Sleeping

Hair is to be worn either in a low pony or loose braid tied with a scrunchy or soft elastic only, to prevent matting. Please ensure hair, especially the root, is completely dry before going to sleep as well as this can cause matting.

Maintenance

For best results and to avoid damage to your hair please have your extensions adjusted every 6 to 8 weeks.

Keratin Bonds

HOT TIP Brushing before the shower and before bed will help your extensions be more manageable.

Maintenance

For best results bonds need to be removed after 3-4 months, depending on rate of growth of your hair. This will ensure your hair is healthy and avoid matting. Keratin bonds when maintained well, can be reused once for an additional 2 to 3 months.

It is normal to lose 10-15 bonds monthly, so please do not be alarmed if this happens!

Do's and Don'ts

Always

  • Use heat protectant when styling.

  • Treat it as your real hair for maximum longevity.

  • Brush from ends up gently with the brush recommended by your stylist.

  • Listen to your stylist!!

  • Use sunscreens without avobenzone or they will turn your extensions orange!

Never

  • Never put oils or conditioners close to the root, as this will cause the bonds to slip out of the hair and the bonds to break down.

  • Never use shampoo or conditioner that hasn’t been recommended by your stylist at risk of the hair matting.

  • Keratin Bonds: Never put direct heat on your bonds as this can cause them to slip out or matte the hair together.

  • never expose your extensions to chlorine
