At Philocaly Hair, we understand that high-quality hair extensions deserve the best care to keep them looking beautiful and lasting longer. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to protect and care for your Philocaly clip-in extensions.
Gentle Handling
Your Philocaly clip-in extensions are made from high-quality Remy human hair, but they still need to be handled with care.
Tips:
Brushing:
Use a wide-tooth comb or a brush designed for extensions to gently detangle your extensions. Start from the tips and work your way up to avoid pulling the hair.
Attachment and Removal:
When attaching or removing your extensions, be gentle. Snap the clips open and close carefully to prevent damaging the wefts.
Washing Your Extensions
Regular washing helps maintain the luster and health of your Philocaly clip-in extensions, but it's important not to overdo it.
Steps:
Frequency:
Wash your extensions every 4-5 wears or when there is a build-up of product.
Products:
Use a sulfate-free shampoo and a moisturizing conditioner. These products are gentle on the hair and help maintain its natural oils.
Method:
Gently wet the extensions with lukewarm water. Apply shampoo and conditioner from top to bottom, avoiding scrubbing or twisting the hair. Rinse thoroughly and gently squeeze out excess water.
Drying Your Extensions
Proper drying techniques are essential to keep your extensions looking their best.
Steps:
Towel Drying:
After washing, gently pat your extensions with a soft towel to remove excess water. Avoid rubbing, as this can cause frizz and breakage.
Air Drying:
Lay the extensions flat on a clean towel and let them air dry naturally. Avoid using a blow dryer, as excessive heat can damage the hair.
Styling Tips
While you can style your Philocaly clip-in extensions just like your natural hair, it's important to use the right techniques to avoid damage.
Tips:
Heat Styling:
If you use heat tools, apply a heat protectant spray to your extensions before styling. Use low to medium heat settings to prevent damage.
Avoiding Excessive Heat:
Try to limit the use of heat tools. Opt for heatless styling methods like braids, rollers, or buns to create waves and curls.
Storing Your Extensions
Proper storage is crucial to maintaining the quality and longevity of your Philocaly clip-in extensions.
Tips:
Storage Bag:
Use a storage bag designed for hair extensions. This keeps them tangle-free and protected from dust and environmental factors.
Avoiding Moisture:
Store your extensions in a dry place to prevent mold and mildew. Avoid storing them in humid areas like bathrooms.
Maintaining Longevity
With the right care, your Philocaly clip-in extensions can stay beautiful and last longer.
Tips:
Regular Brushing:
Brush your extensions regularly to keep them smooth and tangle-free.
Avoid Sleeping with Extensions:
Remove your clip-ins before going to bed to prevent tangling and breakage.
Professional Maintenance:
Consider taking your extensions to a professional for periodic maintenance and trimming to keep them looking their best.
