What kind of shampoo and conditioner should I use?

Always use sulfate-free and extension-safe formulas! Sulfates and heavy residues can build up on the medical-grade adhesive tape, weakening its hold over time. Look for products specifically designed for hair extensions.

Are there any products I should avoid near the roots/bonds?

Yes! Avoid applying heavy oils, serums, or conditioning treatments directly near the roots or tape bonds. These can seep into the adhesive and cause it to loosen or slip, compromising the security of your extensions.

How should I brush my hair to protect the extensions?

Brush gently and strategically: Start at the Ends: Begin detangling from the very ends of your hair. Work Upwards: Gradually work your way up towards the roots. Secure the Bonds: When brushing near the tape bonds, hold them firmly with your other hand to prevent tugging or stress on the adhesive. Use the Right Tool: A loop brush (with soft, nylon bristles and plastic tips) or a brush specifically designed for extensions is ideal to prevent snagging.

How can I protect my extensions while I sleep?

Take simple steps to prevent tangling and stress: Loose Braid or Low Ponytail: Secure your hair in a very loose braid or a low, soft ponytail before bed. Silk/Satin Pillowcase: Switch to a silk or satin pillowcase. This creates less friction than cotton, reducing tangles and helping your extensions (and natural hair!) glide smoothly.

How often do I need maintenance appointments?

Regular maintenance is absolutely crucial! Plan to see your stylist for adjustments every 6-8 weeks. As your natural hair grows, the extensions need to be moved up closer to your scalp to maintain a seamless look, prevent tangling, and ensure the health of your natural hair. Don't skip this step!
