Care & maintenance

These are general tips. Your stylist's aftercare instructions come first.

Washing

• Use gentle products your stylist approves, and keep heavy oils and conditioners away from bonds or tape.
• Wash with your head upright rather than tipped forward, and don't scrub the attachment points.
• Dry the roots and bonds fully. Don't go to bed with damp attachments.

Brushing

• Brush from the ends up while holding the hair near the root.
• Use a soft brush that won't snag on the attachments.

Heat & styling

• Use heat protection and moderate temperatures, and keep hot tools off the bonds and tapes.

Sleep, sport & swimming

• Sleep with a loose braid or ponytail, and try a silk pillowcase.
• Before swimming, braid your hair, then rinse out chlorine or salt water soon afterwards.

Maintenance visits

Book check-ups and re-application with a certified stylist at the intervals they recommend. Don't remove the extensions yourself.
