Maintaining Those Curls

MAINTAINING THOSE CURLS

Investing in quality hair extensions are only one step of the journey. The second part is ensuring your investment last for a long time. Here are a few guidelines for maintaining those curls.

Finger Combing Your Kinky Curly Hair

Finger combing rather than brushing your hair extensions is a must. Brushing while the hair is dry will cause it to frizz out ultimately damage them. If you opt out of finger combing, the hair use a wide tooth comb.

Wash Your Curls Gently

You should wash your hair extensions occasionally just not as much as you would wash your natural hair. Avoid a brush when the hair is dry and wet, finger comb or use a wide tooth comb. Also, avoid rubbing the hair in circular motions, make sure you are gently washing from to bottom.

Air Dry Those Curls

Air drying your kinky curly extensions are vital. After washing your extensions give them a chance to air dry. Using your hair dryer will cause frizziness and dryness within the extensions.

Storing The Curls

When you aren’t out flaunting your hair extensions, how are you storing them? The way your hair extensions are stored are just as crucial in the journey of maintaining them. When they aren’t in use make sure they are clean and store them in a Ziploc bag or on a wig head. Lightly apply some oil before storing the weave; it will be soft, curly, and tangle free.

Water Based Serum For The Shine

Apply some water-based hair serum after washing and before air drying your hair extensions. Remember, less is more, adding too much will leave your hair limp.

Don’t Straighten The Curls To Often.

Curly hair extensions already have gone through a lot of procedures to give them a unique style and look. Using too much heat and styling tools to straighten this hair out is putting undue pressure on the hair. If you can, avoid flat ironing the hair and using heat tools do so, if you do decide to use them use a heat protectant.

Alcohol Based Products Are A No

Alcohol-based hair products are drying and using them on your weave will only dry them out and cause shedding.
