Ohh Girls - HAIR TIPS

Hair extensions aren’t always a breeze to take care of, but with the proper care, maintenance and reasonably small amount of commitment your extensions will continue to turn heads.

Try to brush your extensions from the bottom up and try not to brush you hair when it’s wet as that is when hair follicles are at their most vulnerable

At night sleep with a satin bonnet or satin pillowcase to protect your hair.

When using heating tools, use a heat protectant.

Wash your hair at least every two weeks... Use sulphate free shampoo then rise. Next, apply a moisturizing conditioner from weft to tip.

To avoid damaging your hair extensions, the cuticles, and your scalp, shampoo with lukewarm water.

Wash the hair gently in a downward motion with your palms, do not scrub or bunch the hair together as this will cause open cuticles to rub against each other causing friction.

Whilst wet, add 2-3 drops of natural oil such as Almond or Coconut by gently applying it evenly over the hair, these oils will penetrate the cuticles and add moisture.

Using a small amount of Argan, Almond or Coconut oil 2-3 times a week or when required. Argan oil is a great finishing oil for styling and frizz, however it's a dry oil and does not moisturize the hair as well as Almond or Coconut.

Gentle shedding is normal; However, your hair extensions should not shed excessively or any more than your own hair will.

Avoid shampoo and conditioning products which use Sulphates, Isopropyl Alcohol, Formaldehyde and Propylene Glycol, these are strong chemicals which will strip the hair of natural oils and leave them dry and sometimes damaged if used for a prolonged period of time.

Please note, the longer the hair, the thinner the wefts are going to be.

When bleaching or colouring the hair please seek professional help.
