FAQ
Hair Extensions
1. How long do hair extensions last?
Real human hair extensions can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months or longer with proper care. Factors such as the type of extensions, how they are installed, and how well they are maintained will impact their longevity.
2. How should I care for my hair extensions at home?
Proper home care is crucial to extending the life of your extensions. We recommend using sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoos and conditioners, along with a hydrating leave-in conditioner to keep your extensions moisturized. Always brush gently with a wide-tooth comb or a special extension brush to avoid damaging the bonds or wefts.
3. Can I use heat styling tools on my hair extensions?
Yes, you can use heat tools like curling irons and flat irons on 100% human hair extensions. However, always apply a heat protectant spray before styling to prevent heat damage. Heat protectant products act as a barrier, shielding the extensions from excessive heat exposure.
4. Can I swim with hair extensions?
Yes, you can swim with hair extensions, but we recommend wearing a protective swim cap or tying your hair in a braid to prevent tangling. After swimming, rinse yourextensions immediately with fresh water and apply a leave-in conditioner to keep them hydrated.
5. How do I protect my hair extensions from the sun?
UV rays can dry out both your natural hair and extensions, so it's important to use a UV protection spray on your hair when spending time outdoors. Additionally, wearing a hat or scarf can shield your hair from direct sun exposure.
6. What type of products should I use on my hair extensions?
We recommend using lightweight, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners specifically designed for hair extensions. Avoid heavy oils or products that contain alcohol, as they can weigh down the extensions or break down the adhesive bonds.
7. How should I brush my hair extensions?
Brush your hair extensions gently, starting from the tips and working your way up to the roots. Use a wide-tooth comb or an extension-friendly brush to avoid putting too much tension on the bonds. Always brush in sections to ensure you don’t pull on the attachments.
8. How often should I wash my hair extensions?
You can wash your hair extensions 1-2 times a week, depending on how often you style them and your hair’s natural oil production. Over-washing can strip the extensions of moisture, so it’s important to maintain a balanced routine.
9. Will hair extensions damage my natural hair?
When installed and cared for properly, hair extensions should not damage your
natural hair. We recommend visiting a certified stylist who specializes in extensions to ensure the proper application and maintenance of your extensions.
10. Can I color or highlight my hair extensions?
Because we use 100% real human hair extensions, you can color them just like your natural hair. However, it’s best to let a professional stylist handle the coloring process to avoid any damage.
11. Are hair extensions good for my natural hair?
Yes, hair extensions can actually be beneficial for your natural hair when properly cared for. Extensions help hold styles longer, meaning you won’t need to use heat styling tools as often. This reduces heat damage to your natural hair. Additionally, with extensions, you can go longer between shampoos, which helps preserve your hair’s natural oils and keeps both your hair and extensions healthier over time.
