Maintenance & Care

Please refer to the below information for Maintenance and Product Use guidelines.

  • Do not use shampoo and conditioner that contain any Protein, Sulphate, Keratin or have a high alcohol content. These ingredients will cause damage to your hair extensions.
  • Following Tape Extensions application, do not wash or wet hair for 48-72 hours.
  • Apply shampoo to the roots of your hair, and conditioner from mid-lengths to ends.
  • Applying regular treatments is necessary to keep hair extensions in top condition.
  • Hair extensions must be brushed regularly, before bed, in the morning and before taking a shower (NO hard bristle brushes or tangle teezers).
  • Do not go to bed with wet or damp hair.
  • Always dry your hair after washing.
  • Oils and treatments should only be used on the mid-lengths and ends.
  • Avoid putting heat styling tools such as straightening irons or wand directly on the bonds/tapes or where hair extensions are attached (blow drying is fine).
  • Regular maintenance in the salon is required to ensure your hair extensions always stay intact.
  • Avoid Tanning and Sunscreen products as this will discolour extensions. 

 

Colouring:

If colouring your extensions is required, a professional should always perform this. If you really wish to colour your extensions try not to go far from their original colour. Colour to darker tones with a gloss Redken Shades EQ only. Also, dont repeat this process too often on the same extensions. Please ensure you apply the desired colour to a test strand first, as we cannot be held responsible for any issues you may encounter during or after any colouring of your AHB Hair.

 

Swimming:

Avoid swimming in chlorine and sea salt water, minerals in the water can alter the colour in hair extensions and also dry them out severely. 

 

Styling:

Avoid wearing a tight or high ponytails in the first two weeks following application. Use leave-in cream with heat protection when using heat tools and temperature below 180 degrees.
