Your Guide to Keeping Extensions Beautiful Longer
At Lena Shkreli and Company, we're passionate about helping you maintain the beauty and longevity of your luxury hair extensions. Proper aftercare is essential for keeping your extensions looking flawless, healthy, and vibrant. Here's your ultimate guide to hair extension care!
Gentle Brushing Technique
Always brush your extensions gently and regularly. Start from the tips, working upwards toward the roots to minimize tangles and reduce pulling or stress on your extensions. Metal bristle brushes are our favorites!
Extension-Friendly Products
Use sulfate-free shampoos, conditioners, and styling products specifically formulated for extensions. Sulfate-free products are gentler, preserving both the color and integrity of your extensions, keeping them soft and manageable. Along with a hydrating weekly mask is a MUST! Goldie Locks is our favorite line for hair extensions.
Wash and Condition Carefully
Wash your hair gently, avoiding vigorous scrubbing at the roots where your extensions attach. Apply conditioner mainly on the mid-lengths and ends, ensuring the attachment areas remain secure and residue-free. Once a week, trade your conditioner in for the Goldie Locks Signature Mask, run it mids through ends and allow it to sit for 10 minutes. Rinse throughly.
Heat Styling Precautions
Minimize the use of high heat styling tools, and always use a thermal protectant spray when heat styling is necessary. Reducing excessive heat exposure extends the life and quality of your extensions. A heat protectant is a must have! The Blow Dry Spray can be used on wet or dry hair!
Regular Maintenance Visits
Schedule regular appointments every 6-8 weeks for professional adjustments and check-ups. Regular salon visits help maintain your extensions' comfort, appearance, and seamless integration with your natural hair.
Bedtime Care
Protect your extensions while sleeping by loosely braiding or tying your hair back with a silk scrunchie. Consider using a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and maintain smooth, shiny extensions.
By following these simple yet effective aftercare tips, you can enjoy beautiful, healthy hair extensions for longer. Visit Lena Shkreli and Company for expert care and advice tailored to your specific hair extension needs!
