Hair Extensions are a fantastic way to get a fabulous head of hair. They add length to your hair and pump up the volume, so you can have flawless locks.

What we love about hair extensionsis that you can cut and trim them as your desire to achieve the perfect look,but they do require special care. Here are some tips and tricks on caring foryour extensions from Best Wig Outlet so they canlast you as long as possible.

Cleaning and Washing Hair Extensions

Hair extensions are an amazing way to get the look that youwant, but like your own hair, they need to be washed and kept up. Not just forcleanliness, but to keep them in nice shape so they’ll last for a long time. However,you don’t want to wash them too often for the same reasons. Washing often canstrip the extensions of their oils and shorten their life.

A sulfate-free shampoo is the ideal thing to use whenwashing extensions. It’s not harsh and will keep them in good condition. If youwant to take the care a step further and really make them last, try to get a shampoothat is as natural as possible. This means avoiding additives like SLS andalcohols. Conditioning your extensions is also fine but try to keep theconditioner at the ends of your hair, rather than the roots.

Wearing Your Extensions

It is recommended by many stylists that you should gentlybrush extensions from the ends and work your way up. This makes sense, sinceyour extensions are adhered to the scalp, so naturally, if there are knots ortangles to be dealt with, you could risk loosening them or pulling them out.

Products can be another issue Using high-quality and morenatural products is a great choice, as hairsprays, gels, and other stylingproducts can cause your extensions to have a shorter lifespan.

Storing Hair Extensions

If you’re storing your extensions for later use, you’ll wantto make sure that they’re clean, brushed and dry when you put the away. Thiswill keep them in optimal condition. Make sure they’re stored somewhere wheredirect sunlight won’t hit them and alter the color.

Cutting and Coloring Hair Extensions

We recommend that you always have a professional cut yourextensions. They can be cute and styled, often times, just like your naturalhair once they’re placed. A professional that has experience with extensionscan know the best way to carefully and successfully cut them in the length andstyle that you want.
