  5. Masterful Maintenance: Stay committed to our maintenance schedule for radiant results. Regular appointments ensure secure attachments and maintain your hair's stunning allure.

  6. Wash and Shine: Gently wash your extensions using sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Pat them dry with a soft towel and apply a lightweight leave-in conditioner for added shine.

  7. Brush with Care: Use a loop brush or wide-tooth comb to detangle your extensions. Begin from the tips and work your way up, ensuring minimal stress on the bonds.

  8. Heat Protectant Hero: Prioritize your extensions' health by applying a heat protectant spray before any heat styling. Opt for low heat settings to preserve your extensions' shine.

  9. Friendly Braids for Bed: Before bedtime, loosely braid your extensions to prevent tangling and friction. For extra care, sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase.

  10. Tie the Knot for Swimming: Keep your hair secured in a bun or braid before swimming to minimize exposure to chlorinated or saltwater, which can damage extensions.

  11. Trim for Success: Regular trims keep your extensions looking fresh and prevent split ends. Schedule trims every 6-8 weeks for optimal results.

  12. Accessorize with Caution: When using hair accessories, be gentle to avoid tugging on the extensions. Opt for hair-friendly options like soft scrunchies or hairpins.

  13. Know Your Products: Use extension-friendly hair care products to maintain their shine and longevity. Avoid products with high alcohol content that can dry out the hair.


Don'ts for Beautiful Hair Extensions:

  1. Consultation Ignorance: Skipping the consultation is like missing the first chapter of a book. Avoid less-than-ideal results by collaborating with us to bring your vision to life.

  2. DIY Disaster Avoidance: While DIY projects are fun, extension application isn't one of them. Trust our skilled experts to deliver results without tangles, breakage, or frustration.

  3. Handle with Tender Love: Treat your extensions gently to prevent damage. Avoid tugging or pulling, and ensure they're fully dry before styling.

  4. Moderate Heat is Great: Excessive heat can compromise extension quality. Keep styling temperatures moderate and use heat protection to prevent damage.

  5. Routine Maintenance Ritual: Missing maintenance appointments is a big no-no. Stay committed to regular visits to maintain your extensions' brilliance and strength.

  6. Avoid Heavy Products: Keep heavy styling products away from the roots and bonds to prevent them from weakening and slipping.

  7. Say No to Tight Styles: Avoid overly tight hairstyles that stress the bonds. Opt for loose braids or gentle updos to keep your extensions secure.

  8. Chlorine and Saltwater Caution: Minimize exposure to chlorine and saltwater, as they can cause fading, dryness, and damage to extensions.

  9. Avoid Sleep Friction: Skip the friction and tangles by tying your extensions in a loose bun or braid before hitting the hay.

  10. Color with Caution: Leave color changes to the professionals. If you're itching for a new shade, consult with our experts for safe and beautiful results.

  11. Skip Silicone-Free Shampoo: Silicone-based products can create buildup on extensions, causing them to appear dull and lifeless. Opt for silicone-free options.

  12. Detangle Dry Extensions: Always detangle your extensions when they are damp, using a wide-tooth comb or loop brush. Detangling dry extensions can lead to breakage.

  13. Excessive Sun Exposure: Prolonged sun exposure can cause fading and dryness in extensions. Shield your hair from the sun with a hat or UV protectant.

  14. Avoid Hot Tubs and Saunas: The extreme heat and moisture can weaken the bonds of extensions. It's best to avoid these environments to ensure longevity.

  15. Skip Regular Check-ins: Regular maintenance appointments ensure your extensions are secure and looking their best. Skipping appointments can lead to hair damage.

  16. Say No to Over-Brushing: While brushing is important, over-brushing can stress the bonds and lead to breakage. Brush your extensions gently and as needed.

  17. Don't Overdo It with Products: Using too much styling product can weigh down your extensions and cause buildup. Use products sparingly and focus on the mid-lengths to ends.

  18. Avoid Sleeping with Wet Hair: Sleeping with wet extensions can cause tangling and damage. Make sure your extensions are completely dry before bedtime.

  19. Don't Ignore Warning Signs: If you experience discomfort, itching, or excessive shedding, reach out to our experts immediately for assessment and advice.

  20. Avoid Tying Hair Too Tightly: Tight ponytails or updos can strain the bonds and lead to hair breakage. Opt for loose hairstyles that distribute weight evenly.
