The Guide

Extension care, made simple

Routine

How Often To Wash

Over-washing dries out your extensions. Keep a gentle, consistent routine to protect your investment.

  • Wash only 1 to 3 times per week to avoid drying out the hair.
  • Dry shampoo can be used on the scalp — never on the extensions.
  • Use sulfate and silicone free shampoos to prevent build up.
  • Never brush hair while wet — this can cause breakage.
Styling

Heat Protection

Heat protectant is absolutely necessary to prolong the life of your extensions whenever you use hot tools.

  • Always apply heat protectant before any heat styling.
  • Use as little heat as possible and try no-heat styling when you can.
  • Avoid all heat on the base of your extensions.
  • A blow dry brush can straighten and volumize in one gentle step.
Protection

Night Routine

Nighttime care is crucial to extending the life of your extensions — please do not skip this step.

  • Braid your hair before bed to prevent tangling and matting.
  • Sleep in a silk bonnet to keep hair soft and frizz free.
  • Silk pillowcases prevent friction, frizz and protect your skin.
  • Never sleep with wet hair.
