Extension Aftercare

Care for your investment. Your extensions are designed to look seamless, feel comfortable, and last beautifully with the right care. A consistent, gentle routine will protect both your extensions and your natural hair.

Daily Care

  • Brush 2–3 times daily using a soft extension brush
  • Always support the wefts or bonds while brushing
  • Keep hair loosely braided or in a low ponytail while sleeping
  • Avoid excessive tension at the scalp

Washing

  • Wash 2–3 times per week using professional, extension-safe products
  • Gently cleanse the scalp—avoid scrubbing or rough motions
  • Rinse thoroughly and follow with a hydrating conditioner (mid-lengths to ends)
  • Always dry bonds or wefts completely after washing

Styling

  • Always use a heat protectant before hot tools
  • Keep heat away from bonds and attachment points
  • Opt for low to medium heat whenever possible
  • Avoid heavy oils or products near the scalp

Professional hair products are a must 

Products to Avoid
  • Sulfates, parabens, and harsh clarifying shampoos
  • Oils, serums, or conditioners applied directly to bonds or rows
  • Sunscreen or self-tanner contact with extensions (can cause discoloration)

Final note

Luxury hair is an investment—what you do at home is just as important as what happens in the salon.
With proper care, your extensions will remain soft, seamless, and beautifully lived-in between every appointment.
