Avoid swimming with extensions but if you do then tie them up or wear a swimming cap so they are out of the water.

washing your extensions
​
Before washing brush out all tangles.
​
Wash your hair upright in the shower or laying back in the bath. Don't flip your hair upside down to wash.
​
Apply shampoo to root area and use gentle movements to wash your scalp. Try not to scrub hard around extensions and never scrub the ends of your hair.
​
Squeeze the excess water out and apply lots of conditioner to mid lengths and ends . Try not to get conditioner on the extension bonds and this may cause then to slip out. Leave the conditioner on for a least 5 mins. The longer you can leave the conditioner on the better.
​
Rinse hair thoroughly. Gently squeeze of excess water with a towel, do not use scrubbing motions.
​
Leave in conditioner, oil and heat protector should be sprayed on to your wet hair and then combed through with a suitable hair extension brush.
​
Dry the hair with the air flow pointing downwards on a setting that is not too hot.
Finish with applying a oil to the ends of the hair.
​
Heated styling tools such as straighteners and tongs are not recommended but if using them heat protector is a must!
