How to extend the life of your hair extensions

So what are some tips to maximise care and life extension for your Kiki Remy Hair ?

You can look after your extensions by making sure to moisturised with the right products, as hair extensions are dry and can not create the natural moisture like your natural hair it is important to keep them hydrated.

With the proper hair care can last up to a year sometimes even longer depending on how often they are worn. The more you wash and style your extensions the shorter the lifespan will be so be sure to keep your washing to a minimum. The best way to ensure long life for your extensions is to keep free from odors, and only wash every 15-20 wears/ uses.

Make sure that you use a non chemical conditioner, do not brush while wet and add coconut, almond oil for silky moisture. When brushing make sure to brush out the hair from the bottom and then slowly but gently work it up to the top (we recommend using our tangle teezer brush to brush your locks). Regular soft brushing prevents and reduces future tangles. However we recommend that you try not to sleep with them in but if you must sleep with them we recommend having a paddle brush on hand sleeping with them in be sure to put them into a plait or ponytail so that it does not move throughout the night and you can quickly prevent them from becoming knotted and tangled.

Remember “Good Habits = Longer Lasting Hair Extensions which is also cost effective”.
