At-Home Hair Extension Aftercare

HOME CARE FOR MY EXTENSIONS:

  • Do not wash hair up to 48 hours after initial application of extensions (micro-ring and micro-ring weft excluded); allow up to two weeks to become comfortable with hair extensions.

  • Extensions may be painful or uncomfortable the first few days.

  • Before washing, brush all tangles out using gentle strokes. Brush hair from the root down with a recommended hair extension brush up to three to four times daily.

  • Do not leave bonds wet for long periods of time. After being in a pool, hot tub, body of water, or any other chemically treated water, wash thoroughly with a PH balanced formula – colours and quality of hair may be altered depending on the chemical make-up of water treatment systems. Hair extensions are not recommended for use in chlorinated water, salt water, and hard water with a high mineral content or in hotter climates than normally accustomed to as damage or discolouration can occur.

  • We recommend pulling hair back into a loose braid with a soft hair tie when going to sleep to prevent tangling/matting.

  • Only use extension products prescribed by your hair extension technician. Do not use any over the counter chemicals such as; perm solution, permanent or semi-permanent hair colour, shampoos that contain sulfate, or any products not approved by the technician/salon.

  • Do not apply any oil-based products directly to the bond, instead hydrate hair mid-shaft down with serums and/or oils.

  • When styling with hot tools, avoid heat to the bond.

  • DO NOT USE natural and organic shampoo and conditioners.

IN SALON MAINTENANCE:

  • Scheduled maintenance appointments are recommended depending on the condition of your extensions and natural hair.

  • If you have any questions/concerns during the duration of the install, please contact Love’s In The Hair Extension Studio Inc..

  • Love’s In The Hair Extension Studio Inc. is not responsible for any colour change/damage done to the hair if Blue/Purple/Silver or toning shampoo is used.

  • Extensions MUST be removed professionally (recommended to be removed at Love’s In The Hair Extension Studio Inc., as our products work together) and that if they are not maintained/removed in a timely manner, it is solely your responsibility for the end result of your natural hair.
