Many ladies literally "go all out" - they do tattoos, false nails, silicone busts, liposuction and, of course, hair extensions. All these little tricks add extra charm, emphasize individuality and make us, the fairer sex, more noticeable and attractive to them - men. Today we will tell you about caring for hair extensions - what needs to be done so that they remain beautiful and look natural as long as possible. To begin with, it would be nice to find out how long people wear hair extensions. Practice shows that with proper care, you can be proud of your new purchase for at least three to four months. Agree, not bad? But this will require some effort from you. After all, improper handling significantly reduces the "wearing" period of false strands. Perhaps the most difficult moment in care is washing hair extensions. Quite often you can hear complaints that the hair falls out, splits and gets tangled. How many tears have been shed over this! Is it possible to avoid these little tragedies? Of course. Just when "communicating" with extensions, you should be delicate - no sudden movements, improperly applied products and excessively hot water. All this can negatively affect the attachment points of the strands and the general condition of your new hair. Well, now - in order. To begin with, you need to choose the product that will most gently and effectively care for your hair. What shampoo can you use to wash your extensions? What balm or masks should you use? After all, the "lifespan" of your hairstyle depends on this. Of course, the best choice would be a professional line that will best suit the type of your new hair. This product will not destroy the structure and will help to preserve the beauty, freshness and shine of the strands for quite a long time. If you do not have the opportunity to buy professional cosmetics, then you can use detergents for normal hair. But you should not use shampoos intended for dry or oily hair. The former will dry out the strands, and the latter, since they contain emollients, can provoke hair extensions to fall out. If you have purchased a concentrated shampoo, do not forget to dilute it with a small amount of water before use. But it is better to immediately opt for a suitable composition. When caring for hair extensions, it is unacceptable to use masks and other means to strengthen the hair roots - they can destroy the capsules that fix the strands. Conditioners, masks or balm should be applied to the hair, stepping back from the attachment point, at least a few centimeters. To add extra shine, you can use special compositions - liquid silk or silicone.
