Beauty, Sleep and Swimming
Always tie your hair together loosely in a scrunchee or put it in a braid before you go to sleep. Same when exercising, or riding in a convertible. When swimming, saturate with leave in conditioner and tie your hair into a braid. After swimming gently undo your braid, carefully sort it then dry bonding points with a towel.
Tidy Cuts
Every 4-6 weeks you should come to the salon for a tidy cut. During this cut we trim shed hair away from the bonding points. This keeps your
extensions flowing freely. Tidy cuts also make your removal fast and easy on your own hair. The importance of tidy cuts cannot be stressed
enough.
