Caring For Your Extensions
Your Extensions at Home
to ensure the health and quality of both your natural hair and your extensions please take the time to review our at home care instructions thoroughly
Brush & Blowdry
-
First, spray in Unite seven seconds all throughout your hair. Using a Wet Brush, start from the ends of your hair and work your way up (hold the top of your wefts to avoid too much tension).
-
Be sure to brush all the way to the top of the weft, ensuring there is no matting and tangling at the very top.
-
We suggest clipping everything up except your natural hair underneath your bottom row, and start your brushing with that moving up each section as you go.
Next, drop down your bottom row and brush that out.
Next, drop out your natural hair in between the two rows, and brush that out.
Next, drop out your top row and brush that out.
Finally, drop out your natural that is on top to complete the brushing process. -
Apply a heat protectant like "Oribe Royal Blowout".
-
Rough dry your hair 80% of the way (No tugging at the extensions with a round brush or comb. Use only your hands and fingers.)
-
For a faster blow dry, section out each row and rough dry them separately.
-
You can use a round brush and a small amount of tension to smooth your hair and the extensions, the last 20% of your blow dry.
Sleep
-
Apply a hydrating oil on the mid shaft to ends (we recommend Oribe Gold Lust Oil) and then brush thoroughly ensuring there are no tangles from the top of the wefts to the bottom and make sure you're going to bed with D R Y hair (especially at the top of the wefts).
-
Do one or two loose braids and secure with a silk scrunchie. A loose low pony is another option.
-
Sleep on a silk pillowcase if you can. This will help reduce frizz and tangling throughout the night.
Cleanse
-
Brush hair to remove any tangles and to prevent matting before showering.
-
Use a sulfate free shampoo + conditioner to prolong your hair color and extensions. We suggest Oribe.
-
Gently shampoo all of your natural hair, and in between your rows as well.
-
We suggest a double shampoo to fully clean the hair. (three shampoos if your hair is extra dirty). Be sure to add more water to create a nice lather.
-
Rinse well. Do not leave any product behind.
-
Apply a moisturizing conditioner to the ends of your natural hair and extensions. For even distribution and to seal down the cuticle, use a Wet Brush and brush the conditioner through your hair and extensions (hold the top of your wefts while brushing).
-
Rinse well. Do not leave any product behind.
-
We recommend a weekly mask to strengthen, hydrate + nourish your hair.
