Hair Care Tips

Q: How many packs or bundles should I have for my sew in?

A: For anything shorter than 14 inches (2-3 is fine), 16-24 inches (3-4), 26 inches or longer (4-5 depending on length, curl pattern etc)

Q: Should I relax my hair before or after I get a weave?

A: NO, if you are going to wear a relaxer then wear your natural hair and have it maintained by a professional stylist. If you are wearing a weave there is no need to relax your hair. It will cause too much tension on your hair which causes hair damage and potentially loss. If you wear partial weaves, try a keratin straightening treatment.

Q: I want to wash my weave at home how do I do it?

A: We recommend that you visit a professional stylist, every 2-3 weeks for a weave retouch. A professional stylist will shampoo, condition, dry, re-tighten and flat iron your weave. If you want to wash it at home we recommend using a sulfate free shampoo and conditioner. Wash your hair by running your hands down the hair not scrubbing. Also invest in a hood dryer to sit under in order for the braids underneath to dry. If your braids are not dry it can cause a number of issues for you and your hair. **Do not use any Tea Tree shampoo, or Dandruff shampoo! These type of shampoos will cause your extensions to tangle, mat, and/or lose its luster. Please be mindful to stay away from ingredients that can strip your extensions of moisture such as parabens, sulfate, and silicone. These products usually tend to have a high alcohol content which dehydrates the hair follicle of its nutrients.

Q: Can the hair be straightened or curled?                                                               

A: Your new virgin hair extensions can be styled like your own hair. You are able to use a thermal (hot) tool to straighten, curl, crimp, etc. Keep in mind the hair does not have all the nutrients that a strand growing from your scalp will. Heat damage can cause breakage and dryness. Therefore, it is imperative that you use a heat-protecting product, always co-wash your hair, and protect it during sleep hours.

Q: Can I color my bundles?                                                                                      

A: Any chemical processes should be done by a professional or at least consulted by one. This purchase is an investment for you and chemically altering the hair can possibly damage it. Although our virgin hair extensions can handle a coloring process very well, please be cautious. Once the hair is chemically-altered incorrectly, the cuticle can become damaged and overexposed, causing fraying, breakage, dryness, and tangling. This in turn will affect the overall look and feel of your hair. Chemical damage has no reverse button, and we will not be held liable for any damages.

Q: How should I care for my extensions?                                                                 

A: We recommend co-washing your bundles weekly and shampooing bi-weekly to rid your bundles of any excess product. Deep conditioning can be done as needed.
