Washing Instructions
Frequency
Washing your extensions once a week is PERFECT! 👌
This keeps them clean without causing unnecessary dryness or wear.
Fill a basin with cool water ❄️ (NEVER hot—it damages hair fibers and bonds!)
Use a sulfate-free shampoo 🧴.
PSA: Sulfates = hair’s worst enemy! 🚫🔥 They strip moisture, causing dryness, tangles, and a shorter lifespan. Always choose alcohol/sulfate-free products!
Swish the wefts gently in soapy water 🌊—NO rubbing, twisting, or scrunching! 🙅 (This causes friction, matting, and damage.)
Rinse thoroughly under cool water 💧.
Apply conditioner only from mid-length to ends 💆 (avoid bonds/clips to prevent loosening).
Gently squeeze out excess water (NO wringing!).
Air-dry flat on a clean towel 🧺—away from sunlight ☀️🚫 or heat.
REMEMBER: Hot water, blow-dryers, or submerging clips underwater = BIG NO-NOs! 🔥🙅 (Heat damages hair; water ruins clips.)
Once 100% dry, use a wide-tooth comb 🪮, starting from the ends.
WARNING: Wet hair = fragile hair! 💦🚫 Brushing wet extensions = breakage! 😱
Tie hair in a loose braid or low ponytail 🌙 to minimize friction.
Use a silk pillowcase 🛌✨ (less friction, fewer tangles, more moisture retention!).
Styling & Storage
Storage Tips
- Hang wefts on a padded hanger 😊 (prevents tangling).
- OR store flat in a silk/satin pouch 👜.
- CRUCIAL: Always close clips securely 🔒 before storing! (Prevents snagging, bending, and loss of grip strength.)
Heat Tools
Human Hair Extensions: Max 180°C / 356°F 🔥🌡️.
Always use a heat protectant spray and avoid direct heat on clips/bonds.
