Proper care for fiber
hair extensions
Not everyone has naturally exotic hair, hence the desire for the
Brazilian, Indian, Peruvian and Cambodian hairs, regardless of their prices.
The reason some women are able to reuse their fiber hair extensions for as long
as a year is the maintenance practice. Hair extensions require work as they are
not like the natural hair. The better you take care of your fiber hair
extensions, the longer they will last.
In order to ensure long-lasting extensions and wigs, the
following tips will prove helpful:
Detangling hair
To get rid of tangles, gently comb out fiber
hair extensions using a wide tooth brush or a detangling brush.
While combing, do not just insert the brush to the root of the hair, start
combing from the ends and slowly work your way to the top (the root). To avoid
removing the hair while combing, support the extension with your hand.
Washing
It is advisable to wash the hair at least once in a week, but
not more than three times in a week. Washing them too much will make them
appear too dry and they will get damaged faster, which is undesirable. It is
best to wash gently with cold water and a very gentle shampoo, free of
sulphite. Always apply moisturising conditioner after washing. Rinse the hair
and dry.
Drying hair
Pat the hair dry and avoid rubbing with a towel as this will
lead to breakage. It is best to allow fiber
hair extensions dry in air, as excessive use of hair dryer will
lead to damage of the hair. However, if necessary the dryer should be put on a
cool setting, and the extension should be combed out gently with a wide tooth
brush while drying.
Styling fiber hair extensions
It is best to discuss your human hair style preferences with
your stylist. Use styling products that are alcohol free such as mousse, gel,
and hairspray in moderation. Avoid oily or greasy products, as it can cause
extreme tangling of the hair.
Applying heat
Heat is the biggest enemy of human hair extensions. Excessive use
of heat causes the ends of the hair to weaken and become brittle, leading to
breakage. If heat must be used, heat protectant must be applied to the hair
before-hand. The use of flat irons should be avoided.
Sleeping with fiber hair
Avoid sleeping with the fiber
hair wet , for it may get tangled while sleeping. Plait the
hair, pin it up, roller-set it or roll with bendy rollers before sleeping.
Sleep with a satin cap or on a satin covered pillow to avoid pillow friction.
Other things to take note of:
·
Avoid touching
the hair every time. Touching fiber hair extensions leads to the transfer of
oils from the hand to the hair, leading to them become unsightly.
·
Rinse your hair
in tap water before and after going into the swimming pool. The heavily
chlorinated water has damaging effects on fiber hair.
·
Do not use
towels to rigorously dry out your fiber hair extensions, to avoid breakage.
·
Oil your scalp
whenever your scalp feels itchy. Avoid scratching because it can result in
frizzy roots and noticeable tracks.
·
When storing
your fiber hair, store them in well ventilated packs, and in such a way that
they do not get matted and tangled.
