Hair Extensions - Care and Washing Instructions

Washing

Step 1: Brush out each weft from ends to the top before you shower

Step 2: Be sure to wash from the top to the ends.

PRO TIP - Avoid washing your hair upside down or scrunching. Keeping all the hair in the direction the cuticle lays will help keep the longevity of your extensions

Step 3: Wash with a light shampoo and moisturizing conditioner. Rinse thoroughly (through the wefts). You now have twice as much hair, so rinse twice as much.

Step 4: Leave in conditioner and a serum of the ends of the extensions.

PRO TIP - Avoid brushing the extensions when wet. Allow to air dry or use a heat protectant to blow dry. When washing separate hair into two smaller pigtails. It will be easier to manage.

Care

• Gently brush 2-3 times daily

• We recommend purchasing a hairbrush that's specifically designed for hair extensions. We offer them here at Studio 8.

• Brush hair from ends working up

• Wash with sulfate-free shampoo

• Apply a nourishing, hydrating mask to your ends once a week

• Do not color extensions at home

• Do not go to bed with wet hair

• Pull all hair into a ponytail or braid before bed to avoid tangling while sleeping

• Always wear extensions in a braid or ponytail when exercising or swimming

• Always rinse or shampoo immediately after swimming in a chlorine pool or salt water
