Even though it doesn\u2019t grow from your scalp, you must take care of extension hair as if it does \u2014 after all, you paid for it!<\/p>

If it\u2019s been a few months and the style you have starts to look like a completely different style from which you started with and not in a good way \u2026thats means it\u2019s time for them to be moved up.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The Product<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

The best way to maintain your extensions is to take care of them as you would your own hair. Use products that you would use on your hair and avoid too many harsh chemicals that can over process the hair.\u00a0<\/p>

Regarding hair extension reinstalls, you will know it\u2019s absolutely time for your hair to be reinstalled when your hair extensions is completely showing because your hair has grown out so much.<\/p>

Glossy Nectar as shown in the picture:<\/p>

A luxurious, multi-beneficial oil designed to nourish, strength, and enhance your hairs natural beauty. Infused with biodynamic Eschschoizia to fortify and smooth, organic cornflower to brighten and protect, and ethically sourced marula oil to deeply hydrate without heaviness.\u00a0<\/p>

I love to put this on on damp hair which helps reduce the drying time when blow drying.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Proper Installation<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Always make sure that your extensions are applied by a professional who has been trained in that extension method.\u201d Poor installation can lead to damaging your natural hair and having to remove that style sooner than you wanted to. A professional ensures extensions blend seamlessly while keeping your natural hair safe.<\/p>

Comfort and longevity- Well installed extensions feel lightweight and secure, preventing discomfort and unnecessary strain on your scalp.<\/p>

Natural Appearance- The right technique ensures extensions blend flawlessly with your natural hair,, making them virtually undetectable.<\/p>

Easy Maintenance- Properly placed extensions are easier to style, care for, and maintain, helping them last longer without tangeling or matting.<\/p>

Clients who follow the maintenance routine and collaborate with their hairstylist create ease and beautiful damage free results!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Keep up with your reinstalls<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Moving up your\u00a0 extensions \u201cevery six to eight weeks, depending on how fast your hair grows, for all extensions at all lengths and textures to avoid matting and tangling.<\/p>

\u00a0If you aren\u2019t sure you can commit to so much upkeep, try clip-ins. \u201cClip-ins are great because you can take them out at the end of each day.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Use a silk pillowcase<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

The best way to sleep with your hair extensions is by wrapping them in silk or sleeping on a silk pillowcase to prevent dryness and matting.<\/p>

Do not tie up your hair in a topknot, low bun, or leave it flowing freely. You could end up with a matted, knotted mess.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Wash Your Hair<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Try to wear your look for as long as possible between washes, then be gentle with your roots when you do finally cleanse.<\/p>

I wouldn\u2019t wash the hair as frequently as you would your own hair because excessive washing can cause the install to loosen and you wouldn\u2019t get a long wear out of it because of that.<\/p>

Instead shampoo and condition the extensions at least every other week.<\/p>

Hair extensions require special treatment as there is no oil traveling down the hair shaft, meaning the hair becomes dry. Always use products that are hydrating and gentle on the hair.\u201d Pay attention to what is in the shampoo and conditioner you are using.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Scalp Care<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

Rather than use dry shampoo right after showering wait a few days.<\/p>

If you work out use it before your work out.<\/p>

Dry shampoo can dry out extensions. So you just have to know when to use it.<\/p>

After you wash and condition your hair, let it air-dry. This will put less stress on your natural roots.<\/p>

You can still use oils on your scalp and brush often to nourish your scalp.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
