Hair Care Guide

Washing

  1. Gentle Shampoo:
  • Use a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner when washing your extensions.
  • Recommended Products: Design Essentials, Kera Care, Dove Hydrating, or Crème of Nature for softness and manageability.
  1. Detangling:
  • Always detangle your hair from the ends to the roots before washing to prevent breakage.
  1. Washing Frequency:
  • Wash your extensions no more than twice a week to avoid drying them out.
  • Shampoo in a downward position to maintain the integrity of the hair.

Drying

  1. Pat Dry:
  • After washing, gently pat your extensions with a towel. Avoid rubbing, which can cause frizz and breakage.
  1. Air Dry:
  • Allow your extensions to air dry. If you prefer using a blow dryer, use a diffuser to enhance the natural waves and avoid touching it with your fingers.
