Looking after your hair extensions

Into Hair are hair extensions specialists and the following advise is given as generic good practice, however your technician may give further independent advise .

Prior to your hair extensions we recommend that you have a minimum of 3-4 inches in length, just about long enough to put your hair into a ponytail. Ideally, the longer the better.  However, shorter lengths can be done but will be advised on consultation.  You can email us a picture and we will be able to let you know.

After Care  

Do not wash your hair for at least 48 hours after having you hair extensions fitted to give them time  to go hard.

Once you have had you hair extensions fitted, the following should be followed to ensure that you keep your hair looking healthy and neat.

Ensure you hair is brushed every day ensuring you start from the bottom working your way up, making sure you hair is tangle free. 

Hair should be washed using a smooth motion rather than being rough with the hair ensuring not to knock the bonds.  When conditioning your hair do not apply to much conditioner to the area of the bonds as this can cause them to come loose.

It is advisable to put your hair in a loose plait before bed this will help to reduce any tangling or knotting whilst sleeping.

You can style your hair just as you would with your own hair, using crimps, blow drying ,  straighten, curling tongs just be sure to not apply too much heat to the bonded area.

We advise that a maintenance check is done 6 weeks after have them fitted this will, ensure you pro long the life of them, allowing your technician to replace and loose bonds.  We will also be able to let you know how your getting on with looking after them which in turn will prolong the life of your hair extensions.
