Just Know

Curly hair extensions transform your look instantly, but they do require care to keep their texture lush and frizz-resistant. This guide gives you a simple daily + nightly routine, smart heat-styling tips, and the go-to products we trust.

 

Daily Care Routine

1. Detangling

• Always detangle while wet: Use a spray leave-in conditioner to make detangling easier. Start from the bottom and work your way up to prevent breakage.
• Wide-tooth comb or special brush: Gently detangle daily to prevent matting. Use a mist spray bottle with fresh water to help manage curls daily.

2. Washing and Conditioning

• Sulfate-free products: Use a sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to retain natural oils and keep the hair hydrated. We recommend washing no more than once a week.

Recommendation: Sulfate-free shampoo

• Leave-in conditioner: Apply to the ends to keep them moisturized and prevent dryness.
•  Curl define: Use a curl-defining cream or mousse to enhance and define your natural curls.

Recommendation: Curl Define Cream

•  Heat protectant: Always apply a heat protectant before using heat styling tools to maintain the curl pattern.

Recommendation: Heat Protectant

• Avoid excessive heat: Use styling tools on medium heat settings. Including blow-dryer and flat irons.

 

3. Trimming

• Regular trims: Trim every 6-8 weeks to eliminate split ends and maintain healthy curls.

 

Night Care Routine

1. Pre-Sleep Preparation

• Braid or twist: Loosely braid or twist your hair to prevent tangling and matting.
• Moisturize: Apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner or a lightweight serum to the ends.

2. Sleep Protection

• Satin bonnet or silk pillowcase: Use an SL Raw No-slip satin bonnet or silk pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent dryness.

FAQs – Curly Hair Extensions

How often should I wash my curly hair extensions?

Wash no more than once a week to retain moisture and prevent frizz. Overwashing can strip natural oils and cause dryness.

What products do you recommend for best results?

Choose hydrating, curl-friendly formulas:

• Shampoo & Conditioner: RedKen, Design Essentials, Kera Care, or Crème of Nature (sulfate-free).
• Leave-ins: Deva Curl, Design Essentials, Jane Carter Mist, or Kera Care.
• Curl definers: Camille Rose Curl Maker, Aunt Jackie's Curl La La, Mielle Organics Curl Smoothie.

How should I store my curly hair extensions when not in use?

Keep them in a dry, cool place, away from sun. Store braided or in a silk/satin bag to prevent tangling and frizz.

Can I swim with my curly hair extensions?

Yes. Before swimming, wet with clean water and add a leave-in conditioner to reduce chlorine/salt absorption. Rinse and deep condition afterwards.

How do I refresh my curls between washes?

Mist with water or curl refresher, scrunch gently, then add a leave-in or curl cream. Avoid over-brushing to protect the curl pattern.
