Do’s 

 

• Maintain your appointments: you’ll need to get your extensions re-installed every 8-10 weeks to avoid tension and difficulty in styling and maintenance.

• Brush multiple times daily: to ensure your hair doesn’t snag and to keep it looking beautiful and well-kept.

• Keep hair clean: be thorough when washing around your wefts to avoid product build up and maintain scalp/hair health.

• Be gentle: when brushing, styling or cleansing your hair use a light touch to avoid disturbing your attachment points, and/or tangling or damaging your hair.

• Use professional products: It is recommended you use sulfate and paraben-free products which focus on hydration and moisture. You need to be prepared to use shampoo, conditioner, a hair mask, leave-in conditioner, and a serum for the best results. Extensions need extra moisture due to the processing during their creation, so a moisture-rich line is recommended.

Don’ts 

 

• Sleep with wet hair: going to bed with wet hair will cause unnecessary tangling and matting that you’ll have to deal with the next day!

• Use a cotton pillowcase: Cotton pillowcases can cause unnecessary tangling and strain to your hair. It is rough and unforgiving as you toss and turn in the night. It is highly recommended that you use a silk pillowcase so your hair stays protected throughout the night.

• Use reparative or bond-building products: You need to focus on hydration and moisture with your hair care line. Anything that lists protein (natural or synthetic) as an ingredient needs to be steered clear of. It will cause your extension hair to break and become brittle.

• Go to improperly trained stylists: be sure to go to a certified IBE® hair stylist to receive the safest, most versatile, and comfortable hand tied hair extensions.
