HAIR CARE TIPS

Raw hair requires the same amount of care that is required for your very own natural hair. Following these tips will allow you to maintain the luster and remember longevity depends on your maintenance.

PREVENTING HAIR SHEDDING AND TANGLING

Shedding is a situation that is preventable and it is also normal. In order to make sure hair does not shed excessively and is kept to a very light minimal, we strongly encourage you or your stylist to follow the key instructions.

• Do not cut the wefts. If you cut the wefts, seal each end with Weft Sealer.

• Apply weft sealer prior to installing your hair (especially if your using chemicals).

• Do not put the needle through the wefts , this leads to increase in shedding and lessens the quality of the hair. When sewn-ing in weave, please make sure that your stylist sew in the wefts by looping and tying the weave thread under and over the weft in blanket stitch.

• Greasy products will result in weighing down hair, lost of natural texture and increase chance of tangling.

• Do not split the weft. Splitting wefts are not necessary and can do more harm to the hair than good.

HAIR MAINTENANCE

Excessive shampooing strips the hair of its natural oils which is normally received from the scalp. Keeping your hair conditioned regularly helps to avoid excessive use of hair products. Using moisturizing and hydrating shampoos and conditioners will maintain your healthy hair.

• Use a wide tooth comb to detangle hair prior to washing your hair.

• Always comb or brush hair from bottom up.

• Before shampooing, ensure hair is tangle free. Use sulfate-free and silicone free hair products. Silicone and Sulfate based products will make curly hair frizzy and uncooperative.

• Gently rinse your hair extensions with warm water until they are saturated. Apply a generous amount of shampoo/conditioner.

• Keep shampooing to a minimum of twice a month or sporadically to remove residue of product on hair.

• Do not use products that contain alcohol,  (hair mousse, or gel ).

• Co-Wash hair (exchange conditioner for shampoos wash) weekly in a downward motion

• Wash hair in a downward motion from top to bottom, careful not to tangle hair especially curlier styles.

• Deep Condition (especially if chemically altered)

• Applying a small amount of Coconut or Argan  Oil daily will help maintain shine and luster. Keep in mind Less is more.

Raw hair should be taken care of as it is your own. It is an investment that is guaranteed  to last 2 years, but only with proper care.
