Hair extensions are an investment, and like any investment, they deserve the best care. At Inspire Salon, we believe that your extensions should look flawless from the moment they’re installed until your next appointment. Here’s how to keep them looking their best.

Why Extension Care Matters

Proper care not only keeps your extensions looking gorgeous but also extends their lifespan, saving you money in the long run.

Daily Hair Extension Care

  1. Gentle Brushing:

    • Use a wide-tooth comb or a specialized extension brush.

    • Start from the ends and work your way up to avoid pulling.

  2. Avoid Heat Damage:

    • Always use a heat protectant spray.

    • Keep styling tools below 350°F.

  3. Sleep Protection:

    • Tie your hair in a loose braid or use a silk pillowcase to minimize friction.

Washing Your Extensions

  • Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner.

  • Gently lather and rinse, avoiding rough scrubbing.

  • Focus conditioner on the ends, avoiding the roots.
