HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR HAIR BUNDLES


Detangle Gently: Always detangle your hair bundles before washing, starting from the ends and working your way up to the wefts using a wide-tooth comb or a paddle brush. This minimizes shedding and breakage.

Wash with Care: Use lukewarm water and sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Sulfates can strip the hair of its natural oils, leading to dryness and frizz. Wash the hair in a downward motion to prevent tangling.

Deep Condition Regularly: Apply a moisturizing conditioner or a hair mask weekly (or every 7-10 days) to keep the bundles hydrated. For a deep treatment, leave the conditioner on for 15-30 minutes, potentially with a plastic cap and low heat, before rinsing thoroughly with cool water to seal the cuticles.

Air Dry Whenever Possible: Air drying is the gentlest method. If you need to use a blow dryer, use a low-heat setting and consider a diffuser attachment, ensuring the wefts are completely dry to prevent mildew.

Minimize Heat Styling: Excessive heat can damage the hair and alter its natural pattern. When using heat tools, apply a quality heat protectant beforehand.

Use the Right Products: Opt. for lightweight, alcohol-free serums or glossing polishes to control frizz and add shine. Avoid heavy products, which can cause buildup and matting.

Store Properly: When not installed, ensure the bundles are clean and dry, then store them to prevent tangling.

Daily and Nightly Care:

Nighttime Protection: To reduce friction and maintain your style while sleeping, tie your hair into a loose braid or bun (the "pineapple" method) and cover it with a satin or silk scarf/bonnet or use a silk pillowcase.

  • Avoid Sleeping with Wet Hair: Hair is most fragile when wet, and sleeping with wet hair bundles can cause severe matting and potential mold growth.
  • Avoid Excessive Touching: Minimize running your fingers through the hair, especially while it's drying, to reduce frizz.
  • Special Considerations
  • Curly/Wavy Hair: Conditioner-only washing (co-washing) is recommended more frequently (e.g., 3 times a week) for curly textures to maintain moisture and curl definition. Use a curl cream or mousse on damp hair to enhance the pattern.
  • Professional Maintenance: For sewn-in bundles, plan a maintenance appointment with a stylist every 6-8 weeks to have the wefts lifted and re-tied as your natural hair grows.
  • Swimming/Vacation: Avoid getting hair bundles wet in chlorine pools. If swimming in the ocean, apply a leave-in conditioner and braid the hair beforehand, then wash immediately after to prevent damage. 

 

  • REMEMBER TAKE CARE OF YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS :
