Tape In Extensions
DO NOT WASH YOU HAIR FOR 48 HOURS FOLLOWING THE INSTALLATION OF YOUR TAPE IN EXTENSIONS, THIS WILL HELP THE GLUE ON THE TAPE BOND TO YOUR HAIR PROPERLY.
Your 100% human hair extensions, should be cared for as well if not better than your own hair
To keep your hair extensions looking their best and nourished, use a shampoo formulated without parabens or sulphates. This can help ensure that you don't strip the vital moisture from them with unnecessary cleansing.
We recommend that you wash your hair with a gentle sulphate deep cleansing shampoo every two weeks to remove product build and mineral buildup. Weekly conditioning masks are essential to leave your locks feeling soft and hydrated.
DO NOT APPLY CONDITIONER TO YOUR ROOTS OR THE TAPE, THIS MAY CAUSE SLIPPING.
Golden rule - wash your scalp and not your hair & condition your hair and not your scalp. |
TOP CARING TIPS
Excessive washing and styling will damage the cuticle and decrease the lifespan of the hair, we recommend that you wash your hair 1-2 times per week and use dry shampoo in between washes.
Always brush your hair properly before washing. Start by separating the rows and brushing from the tips of your strands, successively working your way up the length and towards the root. By following this simple step, you'll ensure that your locks are tangle free and ready to be washed thoroughly.
Use caution when swimming - always tie your hair in a high bun before swimming to avoid getting your hair wet – If you are going to get your hair wet first apply a hair mask before swimming to add an extra layer of protection.
Avoid salt and chlorine water – it can discolour your hair and leave your hair dry.
UV exposure and Heat Styling can discolour your hair extensions.
HEAT STYLING
Using excessive heat on hair extensions will reduce the lifespan and damage your hair, you should always use a thermal heat protector and ensure that the heat protector is completely dry before using a heat tool like a curing or straightening tool.
BRUSHING
Your hair extensions are attached to your own hair and incorrect brushing can result in damaging your own hair. Always brush your extensions with a bristle brush and hold the top of your weft track while brushing from the bottom to the top. Make sure that you DON'T brush over your weft track but just underneath the stitching.
SLEEPING
Braid your hair or tie in a bun before sleeping to avoid tangling, it is also a good idea to invest in a high quality silk or satin pillow case.
