How do I wash, style & wear my hair extensions?

Be gentle on the hair anytime the hair is wet, as the bonds may slip if too much tension is applied. Try to shampoo your hair no more than once every 2 to 3 days, being sure to dry the hair and bonds thoroughly on a low to medium heat & speed setting after each time the hair becomes wet. If you feel that this amount of time in between cleansing is too much, a simple trick of baby powder lightly applied to the scalp areas will absorb any oil residue. [After applying the baby powder use a soft, cotton towel to gently wipe away any extra powder off the hair and scalp area.] Using high quality shampoos and conditioners such as Pureology will help to keep your hair in optimum condition, inferior products on your hair will cause dryness, tangling and may loosen the bonds. Aim to keep conditioning products away from the bonds, otherwise the bonds may loosen and slip.

Never wash your hair upside down or yank on it with your normal brushes and combs. Use a loop brush when brushing the hair dry, and a large to medium tooth comb when wet with a conditioner applied for easier combing. Also, when brushing or combing, hold the base of the extension bonds firmly against your scalp, then start from the ends and work upwards. This is so that there is a minimum of tugging on the bond; tugging on tangled hair could cause you discomfort or pull out the bonded hair.
