How to care for them?
To keep your mane spectacular and protect your natural hair, follow these essential tips:
- Always use sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoo and mask. Leave the mask on for about 10 minutes, applying it from mid-lengths to ends and making sure it covers the extensions well.
- Wash with gentle downward motions — never rub the bonds in circles to avoid tangles.
- It's ideal to wash it 2 or 3 times a week, not every day. Always rinse with cold water at the end — it closes the cuticle and adds shine.
- Use a boar bristle brush or a specific extension brush that won't pull at the bonds.
- Always start at the ends and work your way up to the roots, holding the base of the extension with your other hand.
- Never brush wet hair without first applying a detangling spray — wet hair is more vulnerable and prone to breakage.
- Never go to sleep with wet extensions — it can weaken the bonds and cause odor or knots.
- Dry them with a towel using gentle dabbing motions, never rubbing.
- Use a hairdryer on medium heat, keeping a safe distance from the bonds.
- Always apply a heat protectant before using a flat iron or curling iron.
- Do not exceed 180 °C and avoid passing over the same section multiple times in the same session.
- The less heat, the longer they will retain their shine and quality.
- Brush well before bed and tie your hair in a soft braid or low ponytail — avoid elastic bands that can break the hair.
- If you can, sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase — it significantly reduces friction and frizz during the night.
- Apply a few drops of argan oil or serum to the ends before bed to keep them hydrated.
- Apply serum or oil from mid-lengths to ends daily to maintain shine and softness.
- Always avoid the root or bond area to prevent weakening the adhesion.
