High-quality products can ensure the health of your hair extensions and real hair. This is why it is important to use products that protect your hair, because if you don't, it will become dry or dull.
It is important to avoid using any popular tools on extensions. If necessary, make sure to use thermal spray. However, it is best not to use hot tools at all.
When washing your hair, scrub your hair very carefully. You don’t want to push your hair too hard or scrub your hair upside down. Hard scrubbing can cause matting and tangling.
Combing your hair every day is essential, at least twice a day! It is also important to use extended brushes instead of regular brushes. Be very careful when brushing to avoid breaking and damaging your extension cord. Regularly combing your hair can keep your hair extensions in good condition and prevent knots and tangles.

LOC method
Many women want to figure out how to keep hair extensions moist for a long time. You may have seen professional hair stylist use this technique without thinking. It looks like a random program without any thought process. However, you are wrong!
What is the LOC method?
The secret lies in the process of layering the product, from the most watery consistency product to the thickest product. This is called the LOC method. It is an abbreviation for the type of product you use and the order in which it is applied to your hair.
L stands for liquid, it can also be water or water-like products
O stands for any type of oil
C stands for cream and its products
If you have very curly, wavy or curly hair extensions, the LOC method is especially important because a small amount of oil may not keep your hair moist, healthy and shiny. Especially when you use curls to increase the appearance of your hair! There is no dispute, you must use the LOC method to prevent the extension from drying out.
You can try several methods to preserve dry hair extensions. This expansion is a big problem because drying can cause tangles, matting, and breakage. Many products are specifically designed to restore and repair damaged, dry and faded extensions.
You can also try these, but if you don't want to spend a lot of money on expensive products, use the alternative methods listed below. Everything comes from the comfort of your home.
Use olive oil, coconut oil or argan oil
The first method is simple and contains ingredients that most of us already have. Use extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil or argan oil. Make sure these are pure, odorless oils.
The procedure is very simple. Just take a bowl, add some extra virgin olive oil, and put it in the microwave for about one minute.
You want it to be nice and warm, but not too hot so that you can't touch it.
Then, put the extension cord in a bowl and dip it in olive oil.
Then, add the hair extensions to the plastic bag, close it, and leave it there for about an hour.
Now just rinse the extension and brush it a bit. Because the strands are wet, be very gentle.
Add some conditioner to apply the hair so that it does not smell oily, which also helps to smooth the hair.
Finally, put the hair extensions on a towel and let them dry overnight.
Time range: 1 to 2 hours
The boiling pot method
This method is very simple, but requires the highest amount of oil. If you want to try something different, listen to me. There is a boiling method that is commonly used to restore dryness and/or damaged expansion.
1. Just boil a small pot of water until it gets hot, just don’t get too hot.
2. Add ten to twenty drops of olive oil, coconut oil or argan oil, and add two scoops of conditioner.
3. Put dry hair extensions and keep them for about 10 minutes.
4. It is important to let the hair cool before removing the extension.
5. Again, put the wet extensions on the towel and let them dry overnight.
Time frame: 15 minutes
If you want to add oil to the extension cord, be sure to use extra virgin oil, coconut oil or argan oil. Other substances are known to cause breakage or fat accumulation.
Does it work? If not, don't despair! There are more ways to restore their old brilliance. Follow the next guide and your extension will be almost brand new.
After purchase, your hair extension looks perfect, but many of us do not always take proper care, and some problems may arise at this time. Sometimes your extension may be a bit messy, which doesn’t look good. Fortunately, there are many ways you can try to untie the hair extension and take steps to prevent it from happening again.
If you use them correctly, your hair extension shouldn't become so serious. However, if you spray a lot of hairspray or the wind is particularly strong, you may encounter this problem. Of course, no one wants tangled and messy extensions, so you should try to restore your extension to a perfect state and keep it that way.
Tangled hair extensions look like mouse nests, which is an experience no one wants. However, with millions of extensions being cleaned every day, sometimes you may be unlucky. However, whether the tangled hair is due to poor maintenance or poor quality hair extensions, there is always a way to save the mess.
5. How to fix tangled hair extensions?
What you don't want to do is use a brush to pull the tangles out. Instead, it is an antistatic comb or an extremely wide comb. These will not damage the extension.
At the beginning, dry the hair extensions with a towel, do not completely wet or dry them.
Use a hair clipper and comb the knots with a very wide tooth comb.
Then, adjust them. The important thing is to extend the hair gently and be patient.
A leave-in conditioner will help you get rid of tangles, so you don't have to use force.
If you have a particularly large knot, it is best to use a tail comb and gently pass through the knots. This way you can reduce hair loss.
Time range: 30 to 45 minutes
6. How to prevent tangled hair extensions and knots?
The first thing you need to incorporate into your daily work is brushing. Hair extensions need to be combed, just like your natural hair. It may sound obvious, but many girls don't brush their teeth often. This is when the rat dens appear.
Brush your hair extensions
Even the hair extension is soft and free of tangles. This is how you want to keep them!
Prevention is much easier than recovery, so be sure to brush several times a day. If you have a permanent extension like fusion or tape, then you put everything together, just like your natural line. If you have clips, make sure to brush them when you clip them in and when you remove them to store them. You must brush your hair before and after each shampoo.
One thing to remember is to brush very gently to avoid damaging the hair. It is best to buy a brush for combing hair specifically for hair extensions. It will get rid of all knots and cushions.
In order to make your life easier and reduce the number of brushes, it is best to wear a nightcap or a scarf on your head when you sleep. The goal is to protect your lock and prevent it from knotting and tangling while you sleep. You can also wear a ponytail or braid to prevent the hair from brushing together and causing tangles.
Don’t wash hair extensions often
The other time, but sometimes girls will skip this step altogether. You don’t need to wash your hair again when you wash your hair. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be like this at all.
How often should you wash hair extensions?
For flip in and clip in hair extensions, stylist recommends washing hair every 20 or 30 times. For other expansion types, cleaning should not exceed once a week.
The products you use for washing are also important. Avoid harsh shampoos and buy shampoos that are gentle on your hair. The more natural the better, because chemicals can also destroy your expansion.
Don’t use many hair products
Other products you use, such as hair sprays, gels, and oils can also affect the condition of your hair, and you should avoid using them as much as possible. The more product you apply, the more you need to wash your hair, which can eventually lead to tangled or knotted hair.
Also, avoid using hot tools as much as possible, as the extension will dry out faster and the heat will shorten its lifespan.
7. Take hair extensions quality in consideration
Okay, you have followed all these steps, but your hair still looks like a terrible stick of slime? Another thing to consider, you may not want to hear this, but your extension may be of poor quality. The best way to determine whether the hair extension is healthy and whether it will help you maintain the time you want is whether your hair can stand the test of time.
Real hair does split ends. If you are doing everything possible to keep your hair healthy and trim off any split ends, this is a good quality indicator. Wait, what? Yes, if there are not too many forks, you have real hair extensions.
If your hair is dry, keep it moist! Now, if you make every effort to keep your hair extensions healthy and your hair still falls out or is difficult to style, your hair may be full of fillers.
Most fillings look very silky, and the plastic fibers are noticeable. If your hair extensions cannot retain moisture, there is nothing you can do because the hair is processed with fillers.
The only solution is to obtain a set of actual hair. If you prefer quality over quantity, then we recommend the real Remy extension.
