thin breathable net is used as a flat surface onto which the
hair is weaved onto. It gives the client a flat and smooth looking

PAMPERING
YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS |
To maintain your hair extensions in the best possible condition,
it is important that you follow these steps on caring for
them.
1.
Keep your hair clean, accumulation of dirt, sweat and too
much hair products can create a build up which can lead your
hair extensions to tangle or mat up.
2. Before washing brush or comb through your
hair extensions. Wash hair in one direction with shampoo and
apply conditioner.
3. Never sleep with wet hair. Make sure your
hair is dried completely, either left to air dry or blow-
dried. Tie longer length hair in a ponytail or make big braids
before going to bed.
4. Brush your hair extensions daily starting
from the bottom and work up gradually to the top. If you are
wearing a strand-by-strand technique, run your fingers through
your hair from time to time to keep the bonds separated.
5. Do not tug or brush your hair harshly
as this could weaken the bonds and always hold the hair while
brushing to avoid tension on the roots.
6. Always wear a cap when swimming to prevent
exposure to chlorine or salt water and wash your hair immediately
after swimming.
7. Wet your wavy & curly textures with
water, apply some leave-in conditioner towel dry and scrunch
to achieve the wave pattern.
8. Do not attempt to color your own hair
extensions. Head to a salon for this procedure.
9. Avoid using hair care products containing
alcohol.
10. Purchase the appropriate products recommended by Pampered Hair Haven
and your stylist for maintaining your hair extensions.
