Introducing Your TasteProved Hair Care Routine
Whether you have extensions fitted or have chosen clip-ins, the key to keeping your locks looking flawless is your choice in products. Through building a team of staple products that are right for your hair, you can prevent it from becoming dry, dull and brittle. And, we have the perfect products for you, so let’s take a closer look at how to maintain your extensions:
1. Start By Detangling
First things first, before you wash your hair, use styling tools or even go to bed, you will need to thoroughly detangle those locks. This will not only help to keep your extensions in immaculate conditions but also prevent any damage to your natural hair. Our professional detangler has been specially designed with flexible bristles to brush even the most fragile of hair without damage. It also does not have balls on the end of the bristles, meaning that nothing will become caught on your bonds as you brush closer to the scalp.
If you have extensions fitted, then it is important to be gentle, avoiding tugging at your bonds as this may cause them to become loose. Instead, start from the bottom and work your way up, section by section. Use one hand to lightly hold your hair at the top, giving extra support to the bonds then use the other to begin brushing with your professional detangler.
For those with clip-in extensions, although there is no harm in giving your hair a quick once over with the brush after styling, if you need a thorough detangle, always brush your extensions and natural hair separate. Through unclipping your extensions and brushing these alone, you can again, prevent any tension on your scalp and pulling from the clips. You will also find that they will be far easier to blend once your natural hair is smooth and free of any knots.
2. Give Those Locks A Boost
There is nothing better than a pamper evening, even more so when stuck in a lockdown, so be sure to add our hair extension boost to your routine. As a super nourishing, hydrating hair mask, our hair extension boost is perfect if your extensions are starting to become a little dry and dull. The goal of the mask is to restore moisture into the extensions, smoothing and softening, leaving you with that “fresh out of the salon” feel.
We recommend using our hair extension boost bi-weekly, and the product should be used on freshly washed hair. Be sure to thoroughly detangle your locks before application, then work a generous amount of the mask from root to tip, making sure that you avoid the bonds. Allow the boost to deeply condition your hair for up to 10 minutes, depending on how lacklustre your hair is feeling, then thoroughly rinse with warm water.
Voilà, It’s As Easy As That!
There is no better feeling than a good hair day, and with our tried and tested hair care routine, you can keep your locks looking fabulous for longer. All of our products have been specially designed to benefit not only your extensions but also your natural hair, keeping them healthy, frizz-free and full of shine. The key is to take your time perfecting your routine, and by giving your locks just that little extra TLC, we promise that they will thank you for it!
