While this guide is a general one for all hair extensions, it’s important to understand the kind of extensions you have.

Just like natural hair, washing your extensions is vital to keep them looking and feeling great. If you have curly extensions, you may like to use a leave-in conditioner to keep them looking luscious and glossy.

Once you’ve finished washing your hair, it’s important to dry it properly. Even if you don’t have extensions, you should never go to bed with wet hair.

When your stylist attached your extensions, they should have given you lots of great care and maintenance advice. You should follow any tips they’ve given you.
