If you have a special event coming up or if you are simply suddenly craving a change there is a beautiful way to give yourself an instant makeover without cutting or dying your hair. Hair extensions are a girl’s best friend and can instantly add length, volume, or pops of color to your style for a completely new look. And depending on the style you choose you may be able to easily change them out whenever you take a notion.
What Types Of Extensions Are There?
Hair extensions come in a variety of types and colors so that there is an option to meet anyone's needs. Whether you want extensions that stay in and are serviced by your stylist or if you want an option that you can put on and take off yourself at home we’ve got you covered.
Aqua Hair Extensions
Here at Salon Naman, we use Aqua Hair Extensions. Aqua extensions are made from the finest quality 100% Remy human hair. Remy hair is carefully collected and processed to ensure that every cuticle is intact and facing the right direction. Because they are real human hair they can be styled just like your natural hair meaning they truly blend flawlessly into your new hairstyle. While technology advancements mean that synthetic hair looks more natural than ever before, the nature of synthetic hair is to hold its shape. This means it may be difficult to impossible to restyle synthetic extensions making them far less versatile.
How To Shampoo
With the exception of clip-in extensions, the shampoo process is basically the same for all leave-in extensions. You’ll shampoo as usual using a sulfate-free strengthening shampoo such as Kerastase Bain Extentioniste Shampoo. Gently massage in a circular motion using great care near the extension bonds. The less the bonds are disturbed the better. A strengthening conditioner like Kerastase Fondant Extentioniste Conditioner will strengthen and nourish your hair and extensions to keep them in good condition. Apply conditioner from midshaft to ends only. You do not want conditioner near the extension bonds as it could break down the adhesive or cause the extensions to slip.
You can use the same products on clip-in extensions, but you’ll hand wash them by themselves. Before shampooing separate the extensions and thoroughly comb them. Start at the top working towards the ends gently massaging in the shampoo as you go. Try to keep the clips dry. Condition the length of the extensions the same way working from top to end. After rinsing gently squeeze out excess water and then hang the extensions to dry. To speed dry lay the extensions flat on a microfiber towel. Roll them up and press to express as much water as possible. Now when you hang them they will dry faster.
