Your hair extensions will require regular maintenance to keep them looking healthy and nourished. Providing each step is followed correctly your hair will last its full lifetime without any problems and will continue to look beautiful. Remember this is human hair, so you will need to look after it just like you would your own hair.
Important!
For keratin bonds to fully set and work the way they’re designed to, we recommend that you do not wash your hair within the first 2-3 days after having them applied. Allowing the bonds to set properly will ensure the maximum lifespan of the product.
General
- Please ensure that your natural hair is washed prior to installation. This is to remove any residue, including product build up, oil and pollution. Your hair must be free from any kind of conditioner, styling product, balm or natural oils. Your hair must be fully dried before installation. This will provide a clean surface and allow the bonds to adhere correctly and prevent them from sliding and becoming loose.
- After having your hair extensions installed, we recommend Euphoria One aftercare products to restore your hair’s natural oils and moisture. These nutrients can be lost after washing and blow-drying. Our aftercare products will also condition your hair and your hair extensions, leaving them naturally silky, shiny and soft.
- One of the first things you may notice immediately after having your hair extensions installed is that your scalp may feel tender or sore. Don’t panic, this is normal and will subside within a couple of days. You have extra weight attached to your head and this should not be perceived as a problem, therefore you have no need to worry. However, if the tenderness or soreness persists, or you endure any other issues, you should contact the stylist who installed them to check, as this may be the result of the bonds being fitted too tightly.
- Your natural hair will grow by approximately 1.5-2 inches within three months. If your bonds have not been separated correctly once installed, your hair roots may start to tangle together. This is not healthy for your hair or your scalp if this issue is ignored. Please refer to the Brushing section with help to prevent this.
- We recommend that you keep your hair extensions in for up to three months at a time, leaving a two-week gap between installations. This will allow time for your natural hair and scalp to rest.
