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 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 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 natural hair extensions

It is best to discuss your 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 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 natural hair

Avoid sleeping with the natural 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 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 natural hair.
Do not use towels to rigorously dry out your natural 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 hair, store them in well ventilated packs, and in such a way that they do not get matted and tangled.
