How to co-washing your hair?

Co-washing your hair before installing is an essential step to not only gently cleanse the hair but also add luster, shine and bounce back into the hair for a flawless install.
Step 1: Saturate the hair with cold water and apply a sulfate free moisturizing conditioner.
Step 2:  Comb conditioner through extensions with wide tooth comb. Hold hair at the weft and wash in a vertical motion, careful not to create friction, by back and forth movement. This may cause the hair to tangle easily.
Step 3:  Let conditioner sit for at least 5 mins.
Step 4:  Rinse thoroughly with cold water to close the hair cuticles and lock in moisture & shine.

Step 5: Let hair air dry. DO NOT blow dry your hair extensions, to avoid heat damage.

*NOTE We only suggest shampooing your extensions if the hair cuticles have an excessive amount of product build up causing the hair to be weighed down. Regularly, shampooing can dry out the hair and strip it of its natural moisture. Be sure to use only sulfate free shampoo when cleansing and always follow it with a moisture conditioner.

Swimming/Vacation

Chlorine water and sunlight are our hairs worst enemy! Conditioner, conditioner, conditioner, before and after each time you swim. If you wear hair color, avoid natural sunlight as much as possible, as the sunlight affects the PH balance in your hair. Use a swim cap to protect your style if possible. DO NOT chemically process your hair if you’ve been swimming. If you’re wearing braids/weave during the summer or on vacation, be sure to rinse thoroughly, as sand and chlorine tends to seep down into your braids.
