Virgin hair / Human Hair Maintenance
All our hair extensions here at virginhairworld are with little or no efforts in maintenance..
Please treat and care for as you would your real hair or follow instruction below if neccessary.
1) Keep hair clean at all times. We suggest washing your hair at least once or twice weekly with lukewarm or cold water if you feel the need to, our hair extensions usually doesn't require regular washing, except you want to
2) When washing your hair, we suggest using natural shampoo brushing hair thoroughly, wash in one direction, squeezing the shampoo and conditioner from top to bottom gently, then rinse out with clean water.
3) Our wavy and curly hairs doesn't need brushing, they do not tangle, tidying up with just the fingers to loosen up will do, and a spray of water on curly hair to freshen up, but if you must brush for either to give volume or change of style, When brushing hair, remember to hold weft with the other hand, to avoid pulling scalp.
4) To keep hair from dyness if need be. Dilute some conditioner, Conditioner 10 -15% with water, 85 - 90% and use it as a hair spray daily before brushing. We recommend using a leave in contioner for diluting.
5) Color or dye to any color as desires, style as desire. Straighten from curly to silky smooth straight hair or go bouncy curly from straight. Switch between styles and colors. Avoid harsh coloring or chemicals for longer lasting.
WASHING VIRGIN HAIR EXTENSIONS
There is a real knack to maintaining healthy and vibrant hair extensions and washing your hair correctly yet not over washing
• Let the shower head do the work, wetting your hair in a light downward motion.
• Not too much shampoo (and when we say shampoo, we mean no Sulfate). A dab the size of quarter of your palm should do it.
• Lather your hair at the roots, massaging gently AROUND the extension attachments. Avoid touching these if you can. Two minutes of soothing massage is about right.
• Rinse your scalp, again letting the shower do the work. Repeat the lathering and palm wash process , but with a smaller amount of shampoo and just as gentle.
• Lastly, rinse away any traces of shampoo using lukewarm water until your hair feels squeaky clean. A blast of cool water (as cold as you can cope with) at the very end will close the cuticles and ensure the hair is left smooth and shiny.
• Whilst your hair is wet, use your fingers to lightly separate the hair and continue this process with a wide-toothed comb to ensure no sections are joined or intertwined.
• Rub Almond or Coconut oil into the wet hair with the palms of your hands and comb through again using the wide-toothed comb.
MOISTURISING
• We recommend, an oil spray sheen, such as olive oil spray, if you must moisturise, use light weight moisturiser to avoid too much moisture build up and In order to preserve the moisture in your Hair Extensions you can use natural oils and lotions that contain Almond or Coconut . We only recommend pure natural oils and lotions for moisturising your hair to keep them looking vibrant .
DON’T FORGET…
• Avoid over-washing your hair. Use small amounts of natural products and your hair will stay cleaner for longer. Our hair extensions doesn't need much to them.
• Never use a brush on your hair when it’s wet. Instead, use a wide-toothed comb.
• NEVER go to bed with wet hair!
CURLY HAIR
Real Curly Hair Extensions look incredibly glamorous and there is a fantastic selection to choose from here at virginhairworld. Curly hair has a tendency to be naturally drier than straight hair, so it may be necessary to replenish its moisture more often especially 6-8 weeks after installation. Getting to know your hair extensions is key – as soon as you sense they are beginning to dry, spray them with a little water when required. Adding a few drops of natural oil to the water will work wonders too.
Changes in weather, your exercise routine, pollution and how you style your hair can all have an impact on all hair types. So keep an eye on things to get the best out of your lovely hair extensions.
Finally, enjoy your human hair extensions from us. Just a little bit of TLC is all they need to stay looking healthy and glossy, most times they need nothing but tidying up with the fingers.
