Once every 5-7 days is ideal.

This is something you may be working yourself up to at first, so listen to your scalp! If you’re itching or flaky to where your feeling discomfort? Its time to wash, regardless of the amount of days its been

Using MOISTURE-rich professional-grade products vs. Protein-rich products.

Nothing with keratin, restorative or reconstructive properties. Too much protein can breakdown the hair over time causing it to dry out. HYDRATE HYDRATE HYDRATE!

AIRDRY as much as you can before sticking a blow dryer to it.

When blow-drying make sure you are getting the tops of your wefts COMPLETELY dry. This will aid in longevity of your hair and overall health of your scalp. AIRDRY as much as you can before sticking a blow dryer to it, and allow your hair to be 70- 80% dry before using a brush along with your dryer.

Never ever sleep on your hair wet!

This can cause friction making it much more possible for your hair to matt up, loosen wefts from the top and put you at risk for fungal infections on the scalp.

If you are showering in well or harsh water this can dry out the hair, fade it out, and turn it rusty colored, due to the possibility of lime, rust, etc.

Be sure you have decent water running through your pipes! If not, I suggest a Raindrops showerhead filter! (Sold on Amazon.)

Turn down your hot tools lower than what you normally use.

We don’t advise over 360 degrees.

Sleeping with your hair in a low pony or low braid is best if you like it “up” at night!

I suggest tying off with a scrunchie or hair scarf. This will help with less of a morning mess!

Not 100% necessary but totally helps with any tangling at night if you sleep a little wild and you want to go the extra mile!

 PURCHASING PRODUCT: It is very important you’re buying products from a reputable place. Purchase on Amazon, TJ Maxx, Target at YOUR OWN RISK. These stores are not licensed to sell PRO GRADE products. There is no guarantee to what is in the bottle itself, that it isn’t expired, hasn’t been tampered with when you purchase it outside your salon or a professional grade storefront.

Step one – Brush out your hair. Layer by layer, row by row. The hair needs to be brushed out really well before getting wet. Section it all out and make sure you are brushing through your natural hair in between rows as well as all of the extension hair. 

Be sure to hold the base of your wefts at the scalp while brushing through your hair.

This will give your scalp and install the support it needs while combing through any tangles. It’s best you start at the bottom of your wefts and work your way to the top, using a good quality brush or comb. We have found it best to use a classic paddle brush to work all the way through everything. If you’re using a wet brush, be sure to double-check the tops of your wefts that all the tangles have been brushed out!

Think about it like this, we are waiting up to 7 days (sometimes 10 if you’re anything like us) to wash your hair! Make sure you are really dividing up the hair, getting to your natural hair and cleansing/scrubbing your scalp very thoroughly. Dry shampoo and product build up can really make a scalp angry over time, clog follicles and cause damage down the road. Double shampoo if you have to, (we do) and get all that weeklong grime all the way OUT!  

Sectioning the hair out by row pre shower for an easier shampoo. If you have a lot of hair in, we understand it can be over whelming when you’re not used to it all, especially in the beginning! So why don’t we divide and conquer? Clip up your top row, then wet and shampoo the bottom, release the top, wet and shampoo THEN rinse as a whole. This will ensure everything is getting squeaky clean, not missing or neglecting anything in between! Go in for a second shampoo once everything is down.

As for conditioner, try to keep it just through the mids to the ends of the extensions and don’t be hesitant to cake it on! Make sure you are getting in between to your natural hair to be sure those ends are being conditioned as well!

We understand training your hair to go without a wash for 5-7 days can be frustrating or even feel impossible.

A top wash is something that is an amazing way to clean what’s getting seen, getting oily the fastest and the most necessary to push through those dirty looking days. You will separate all the natural hair on the crown, as well as your bangs and face framing pieces. Put ALL extensions in a ponytail behind your shoulders. Use your kitchen sink or tub (most times more comfortable then the bathroom sink) and only shampoo/condition the separated natural pieces. The crown, bangs and face framers. Blow-dry and style into the rest and you should be good to push through a few more days!
