Pro tips:

Shampooing Correctly

Ensure to shampoo your hair in the shower, never in the bath or upside down.

Use your fingers in gentle downward motions to encourage the shampoo & water to rise over the hair extensions. Avoid using circular motions as this can lead to tangling. Rinse thoroughly to remove all product.

Conditioning Correctly

Apply conditioner from the middle to ends of our hair, making sure to avoid the tape.

Rinse thoroughly to remove all product. Gently squeeze and blot dry your hair to remove excess water. Avoid rubbing motions in a downward motion.

Blowdrying Correctly

This is vital to ensuring your tapes last.
Using a professional soft bristle or detangling brush, support the hair at the tapes & gently brush from the bottom up.

Apply recommended hair protector/styling product on the mid-lengths to ends of the hair only, do not apply near the tapes. Concentrate on drying the taped area until 100% dry before drying the lengths and ends.

Once dry, you can use professional styling tools to finish your look. If you would like to leave your hair to dry naturally, you can do so if you first blow-dry the tapes thoroughly.

Going on Holiday

Please exercise caution when using products that contain SPF, such as tanning lotions, body lotions, fake tan & other make-up products, as these can stain and discolour your extensions or fillers.

Excessive sunshine can also lead to discolouration,  as can chlorine in swimming pools and certain minerals in local tap water, both at home & abroad. Extra care should be taken in this regard. Using the right shampoo and conditioner will help to minimize this.
