EXTENSION CARE

WEFTS

  • It's recommended to brush your extensions 2-3 times daily with a metal bristle brush. Place your hand at top of the row where you are directly brushing below. This will ensure you do not tug or pull on the wefts.

    Start brushing your extensions at the bottom working toward the top of the weft (this is easiest to do by sectioning each row). Do not brush the actual seem of your extensions where they are attached to your natural hair, this can add extra pulling to your scalp and hair, causing damage.

    If you do not brush your extensions as recommended you will get matting + that is not only uncomfortable to get out but it is extremely damaging to the hair extensions as well as your natural hair + scalp.

  • Use shampoos and conditioners that are paraben and sulfate-free. Stay away from repair products (protein). Remember, moisture over repair!

    When washing you want to clean your scalp, natural hair and extensions properly to ensure the longevity of your hair. Always shampoo twice to ensure your scalp and hair are clean. Do not use conditioner at the root, mid-shaft to ends only. Deep conditioning is a must, not a negotiable. It will increase the longevity of your hair.

    Step 1: Brush your hair before showering.

    Step 2: Saturate hair with water.

    Step 3: Shampoo 2x - emulsify shampoo on hands, tilt head back (this will lift rows off your head), spread fingers apart and get in between the wefts to clean the scalp and hair. Massage your head while shampooing versus scrubbing your scalp. This is very important so you don’t cause any hairs to be plucked out of their head while washing or entangle your bonds if you have them.

    Step 4: Deep Conditioning treatment on mids to ends only, 3-5 mins. (1x week)

    Step 5: Conditioner 2-3 mins (always do this after treatment to seal treatment in! Do not apply conditioner at the roots as it can cause your beads to slip.)

    Step 6: Rinse out product entirely.

    Tip: always tilt head back to lift extensions off the scalp for better cleaning and rinsing.

    *** It is important to maintain a clean & healthy scalp for your biological hair to continue to grow while the extensions are in. I highly recommend you wash your hair at least once a week to avoid excessive build up on the scalp and wefts.

  • Your extensions hold an excessive amount of water so it's important to rough dry the hair extensions before blow drying with a brush.

    Once you feel your hair is 80% dry you will section your hair, section out the bottom row and start by drying the root with your brush.

    You want to ensure the seam is fully dry and before making your way towards the ends.

    An XL round brush or paddle brush is perfect to ensure smoothing and even drying. Blowdrying your extensions properly is key.

    Always ensure you are using the correct prep, style & finishing products.

    Your extensions do not produce extra oil so the longevity of your wefts depends on this.

    When drying your extensions make sure you are using these in the following order:

    Step 1: dry heat protectant spray

    Step 2: oil 2-3 pumps

    Step 3: finishing spray

    When stylingyour extensions make sure you are using these in the following order:

    Step 1: detangler if necessary

    Step 2: blowdry cream

    Step 3: heat protectant

    Step 4: oil Step 5: finishing spray

    HOT TOOLS: use a dry heat protectant every time you touch a hot iron to your hair and stay below 350 degrees.

K TIPS

  • It's recommended to brush your extensions 2-3 times daily with a metal bristle brush. Gently run your fingers through your scalp area and make adjust any twisted bonds prior to brushing. This is to ensure your bonds are not tangled up in the root area, causing unnecessary pulling which could lead to damage.

    Start brushing your extensions at the ends working upward. Do not brush the actual root of your extensions where they are attached to your natural hair, this can add extra pulling to your scalp and hair, causing damage.

    If you do not brush your extensions as recommended you will get matting + that is not only uncomfortable to get out but it is extremely damaging to the hair extensions as well as your natural hair + scalp.

This will cause your bonds to come out sooner than expected.

  • Your extensions hold an excessive amount of water so it's important to rough dry the hair extensions before blow drying with a brush.

    Keep heat at least 3 inches from the root area if you have ktips, so the bonds don't melt while styling. Blow dry the root area with the heat on medium (not high) to ensure no melting of the bonds.

    Once you feel your hair is 80% dry you will section your hair, section out the bottom row and start by drying the root with your brush.

POOL & BEACH

  • Prepping your hair for the pool or ocean is very important. This will help your extensions with longevity, strength & texture. With 3 easy steps to follow you can have that too!

    STEP 1: It's recommended to brush your extensions before and after you have been in the pool or ocean. This is to ensure your bonds or wefts are not tangled up, causing unnecessary pulling which could lead to damage to your scalp or extensions. If you do not brush your extensions as recommended you will get matting + that is not only uncomfortable to get out but it is extremely damaging to the hair extensions as well as your natural hair + scalp.

    STEP 2: Saturate your hair completely with water and coat it in leave in conditioner. TIP - easy DIY leave in: use a spray bottle, add conditioner & water to dilute. This will help the chlorine or salt water stay on the surface of your hair so it doesn't dry out (Avoid the root area on ktips, focus on the mid-ends of hair).

    STEP 3: Brush & braid your hair. Brushing will distribute the product evenly & braiding will prevent tangling and matting.

  • DO NOT SKIP WASHING YOUR HAIR AFTER A POOL OR BEACH DAY!

    Make sure your clarify your hair from any pool chemicals or sea salt as these can severely dry out your hair extensions.

    Remember moisture is key!

SPF

  • IMPORTANT - DO NOT USE SPF WITH AVOBENZONE!!!

    This ingredient in every day brands will cause your hair extensions to turn a peachy pink color. It is very hard to come back from as it also changes the texture of your extensions. Opt for mineral sunscreens without this chemical!
