Secrets to Success 

​

-Schedule all your re-installs (move ups) in advance.

-Replace your extension hair when necessary. (Generally every 9-12 months depending on how well you take care of your hair.)

-DO NOT shampoo every day and NEVER use conditioner at the root, this causes the beads and extensions to slide. Blondes- DO NOT use a toning shampoo i.e. purple or blue shampoos. 

-Use a professional leave in conditioner and oil/ serum on mids and ends to help keep your extensions hydrated. DO NOT use an oil that is colored i.e. Moroccan oil or Olaplex.

-Sleep with your hair in a loose ponytail or loose braid to avoid matting.

-Never use Olaplex. It over keratinizes the extensions causing breakage. 

-Brush your hair at least twice a day. Run your fingers through your hair throughout the day. Take care to NOT brush at the top of the weft. When brushing your hair make sure to place a hand on the top of your wefts so you don't cause damage or looping.

-Any water activities, lake, ocean, or pool, saturate your hair in tap water and leave-in conditioner and place in a bubble braid before enjoying your water activities.

-Hydrate your extensions with a professional mask twice a month. 

-Make sure you are using a soft scrunchie when putting your hair up and sleeping.

Shampooing & Conditioning 

-Scrub your scalp as best you can around the weft. Lift the weft up and out of the way, especially when rinsing. I find it helpful to section each row of extensions and your natural hair in between the rows.

-Condition only the ends.

-NEVER rub your hair in a towel. Loosely wrap it up or scrunch with the towel.

-Use leave-in conditioner and lightly brush through, making sure to hold extensions.

​

Blow Drying

-Try and let your hair air dry 25% of the way.

-Use your fingers to rake through your hair while power drying.

-Make sure your wefts are completely dry.

-Section off hair and use a brush and dryer to completely dry hair and smooth.

​

Curling & Flat Ironing

-When your hair is completely dry, apply a professional heat protectant and brush through.

-Section off hair and start curling or straightening making sure the heat never goes above 375 degrees.
