How to Care for Professional Hair Extensions

Professional hair extensions offer long-lasting, natural-looking hair. Milk & Blush extensions are made with the highest quality 100% Real Remy human hair and can last 6–12 months with proper care. Maintenance appointments are recommended every 6–12 weeks, depending on the method. Follow the simple aftercare steps below to keep your extensions looking their best.

Cleansing & Styling

Extensions don’t have a natural supply of nutrients and oils like your own hair, so they need extra attention to maintain their condition. Blondes, in particular, require more upkeep as they go through an extended colouring process to achieve their gorgeous tones.

Applying too much shampoo can strip hair of moisture, much like excessive cleansing affects the skin. A small amount is all that’s needed to refresh the hair, and apply conditioner generously while avoiding the roots.

Style with Care

Just like your natural hair, you need to make sure you’re protecting your hair extensions from heat damage when styling. Using too much heat can lead to breakage as your extensions do not get the same supply of natural nutrients and oils as your own hair. Always apply heat protectant such as a Silicone Spritz, and keep the temperature below 180°C (350°F) to avoid damaging the extensions.

Choose the Right Hair Brush

Gently brush your extensions with a loop brush or wide-tooth comb, starting from the ends and working your way up to prevent tangles.

Remember to brush your hair extensions each time you take them out of their box and before you pop them back to keep them tangle free. Just be sure to brush from the ends up!
