INSTALL TIPS

It’s recommended that you consult a stylist before installing any hair extensions. Your stylist will be able to select the best method of installation . If you prefer to install your own extensions, which many women do, then at least try to schedule an appointment for a professional trim and deep condition prior to your install.

As your extensions begin to grow out schedule a maintenance appointment with your stylist approximately every 2-3 weeks to avoid excessive tangling or breakage to your natural hair.

If you choose to install your extensions yourself, sew around the weft. Doing so will prevent the weft from shedding and ultimately prolong the life of your extensions.

Always ensure your hair is completely dry before bed. Wet extensions will cause odor and itchy scalp. Protect your hair using a silk or satin scarf, bonnet or silk pillow case.
