When you visit a hair extensions salon<\/strong><\/a> and get the extensions of your life, you need to take good care of them to look good and stay with them for a long time. What are some of the things you shouldn\u2019t do to your extensions? Well, there are plenty of them, with the common ones being:<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t over-wash the hair<\/h1>\n

If it\u2019s your first time wearing the extensions, it\u2019s common to feel like they are getting too dirty, and you need to clean them every day to keep them in top shape. Don\u2019t do this.<\/p>\n

To retain the look of the extensions, avoid washing them every day. Instead, do it every other day or every second day. And when you are cleansing the hair, really cleanse the ends and scalp, but stay away from the midshaft.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t use just any shampoo.<\/h2>\n

When you are washing your hair, it\u2019s wise you use shampoo to get your hair clean and dirt-free. While this is good, be cautious of the shampoo you use. As a rule of thumb, stay away from a shampoo containing sulfates as it tends to excessively dry the hair, leading to dullness, split ends, and other problems such as a compromised bond.<\/p>\n

You also should avoid greasy products and heavy conditioners.<\/p>\n

When you are out shopping for conditioners and shampoos<\/strong><\/a>, pay close attention to the contents. As a rule of thumb, stay away from any product with sulfates.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t use just any brush.<\/h2>\n

You shouldn\u2019t use any shampoo you come across the same way you shouldn\u2019t use any brush. This is because using the wrong brush can damage your extensions.<\/p>\n

To be on the safe side, use a detangling brush with nylon bristles that will allow you to comb through the hair without pulling. When combing, always ensure that you brush through thoroughly and remove all the knots present.<\/p>\n

Avoid brushing the hair while wet as the strain on the bond can cause the extensions to weaken prematurely. If you have to wash the hair when wet, use a light detangling spray.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t sleep with wet extensions.<\/h3>\n

Some people opt to wash their hair in the evenings to have an easy time in the morning. While this is good, unfortunately, most of them don\u2019t have enough time to let their hair dry, so some go to bed with wet hair.<\/p>\n

This is wrong as going to bed with wet hair causes the hair to be matted down, tangled, and knotted. This causes you to have a hard time straightening the hair, which increases the chances of damaging it.<\/p>\n

Avoid going to bed with wet hair. Instead, ensure that the hair is thoroughly dry before you hit the sheets. You can do this by washing the hair early enough so that by the time bedtime comes, your hair is already dry.<\/p>\n

You can also dry the extensions with a blow-drier before going to bed.<\/p>\n

If you have to go to bed with wet hair, braid it to prevent matting and wrap it with a silk scarf to avoid tangling.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t use too much heat.<\/h4>\n

You can straighten your extensions with a flat or curling iron, but remember that just like your natural hair, they can burn. To prevent this from happening, never go beyond 380 degrees. 350 degrees is usually the sweet spot.<\/p>\n

You also should avoid pausing on a hair section as you can burn the hair there. Always ensure that you glide through the hair quickly to reduce the chances of damage.<\/p>\n

You can always straighten the hair at home but if you aren\u2019t confident in your skills, straighten it in salons that do extensions Olney<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
