Hair Extensions Care Guide

Discover expert human hair extensions care guide, including ideal cleaning frequency for different climates and step-by-step washing guidance. Keep your extensions soft, tangle-free, and long-lasting with proper maintenance.

Cleaning frequency

Regular Wear: Clean every 7-14 days to prevent dryness from overwashing.

Occasional Wear: Clean every 15-30 days.

Hot and Humid Weather: More frequent washing may be needed as sweat and humidity can cause buildup and tangling.

Cold and Dry Weather: Less frequent washing is advisable to prevent excessive dryness and maintain moisture.

1. Detangle First Gently comb from the ends upward using a wide-tooth comb. Avoid tugging to prevent shedding.

2. Rinse with Lukewarm Water Use water at 30-40°C (86-104°F). Rinse hair in the direction of the hair cuticles — no rubbing or twisting!

3. Shampoo Gently Dilute sulfate-free shampoo in water. Soak extensions for 3-5 minutes, smoothing strands with your fingers. Never scrub or swirl — this causes tangles!

4. Rinse Thoroughly Ensure all shampoo residue is removed. Leftover products can dry out the hair.

5. Condition (Key Step!) Apply extension-safe conditioner from mid-lengths to ends (avoid adhesive bonds/tape areas). Leave for 5-10 minutes, then rinse.

Deep Care:

Use a hydrating hair mask or nourishing oil monthly for extra softness.

6. Remove Excess Water Press extensions between a clean towel — never wring or twist! This protects the hair structure.

7. Air-Dry Naturally Lay extensions flat in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight, blow dryers, or heat.
