Every woman's dream – long, full hair, the epitome of feminine beauty. Unfortunately, not every hair is made for this, so a trip to the hairdresser is the only option. With extensions, you can lengthen or thicken your hair. Long hair requires special and precise care. Extensions care.
Since the hair is no longer nourished from the roots, the appearance and beauty of the extensions depends on the wearer's care. Proper washing and drying is crucial.

For daily care:

1. Daily brushing

The hair should be combed through 1-2 times with an extension brush. Start at the bottom and work your way up. Important: Hold the hair firmly with your other hand to reduce stress on the hair roots.

2. Moisturize daily

You should moisturize daily to keep your extensions shiny and healthy for a long time. For the ends of your hair, you should definitely use a hair-end conditioner, and an anti-frizz product is also essential. This product prevents breakage and should be part of your daily care routine (we're happy to advise you).

Washing:

Important: Never wash your hair over your head. We recommend washing your hair once or twice a week for hair lengths of 50 cm or more. Comb your hair thoroughly with a special extension brush and loosen any tangles before washing (tangles will only get bigger with washing). Use mild shampoos. Shampoos Cleanse your scalp thoroughly. Avoid rubbing your hair, as this will cause tangles. Rinse the shampoo thoroughly. Use conditioner or fabric softener/conditioner only on the ends. Keep the washing process as short as possible, as too much water will dry out the extensions.

Blow-dry your hair:

While blow-drying, use your hands to loosen any tangles. Brushing your hair is easier when it's already a little dry; this isn't possible when it's wet. We have great products for a beautiful mane.

The best way to color your hair is with a hair tint. This way, you can achieve your desired shade gently and effectively. Tinting is significantly gentler than coloring because the tint doesn't contain ammonia. It contains only natural ingredients, so you don't risk damaging your hair. The color particles in these products don't penetrate the hair, but rather coat it like a coat. Tints have a positive electrical charge that is attracted to the negatively charged hair. This effect is even more intense in wet hair. Therefore, you should tint your hair after washing it. Remember that the color will be more intense if your hair is initially light. With tints, you should only darken your hair by 2 to 3 shades. We do not recommend lightening it.

Premium Line hair still has its natural cuticles, so you can color it like your own hair. This allows you to perfectly adjust the hair color. Pay attention to the information on the tints you want to use. To be on the safe side, you should first treat a small strand to see how much processing time you need for a perfect result. After that, you can color the rest of the extensions. Keep in mind, however, that every treatment puts strain on the hair structure. You should therefore keep such treatments to a minimum to enjoy your hair for a long time. human hair-Extensions.

Conclusion: Minimal daily effort – a little more time spent washing, but that should be worth it for every woman to have great hair.

Contact with chlorinated and salt water should be avoided, as they can damage your hair. If you're visiting the pool or the beach, curl your hair into a bun and secure it with a rubber band. The same applies if you're taking a bath at home—be careful with bath oils.

Coloring and other styling is possible, but depends on the type and quality of the extensions.
