Rock Your Doores: The Ultimate Guide to Washing Your Clip-In Extensions
Hey, hair boss! Ready to give your Doores clip-ins some TLC? We've got you covered with this step-by-step guide to keeping your extensions as fabulous as you are. These tips work for all high-quality human hair extensions, so let's dive in!
Step 1: Brush your extensions
Before you dive in, show those extensions some love with a thorough brush. Start from the bottom and work your way up, using a wide-tooth comb or soft bristle brush. Gentle does it - we're aiming for smooth, not stressed! Stack your wefts neatly to keep things tangle-free.
Step 2: Prepare your sink
Fill your sink with lukewarm water and add a splash of shampoo. Remember, your extensions don't get as greasy as your natural hair, so a little goes a long way. Pro tip: Use alcohol-free and sulfate-free products designed for color-treated hair or extensions. Your Doores deserve the best!
Step 3: Shampoo each weft
Divide and conquer! Split your extensions into manageable sections. Hold the weft tops and give them a good dunk. Massage the shampoo in gently - we're going for a spa day, not a workout. Repeat for all sections, and if you're feeling extra, go for a second round.
Step 4: Condition each weft
Now for the good stuff! Slather on a generous amount of conditioner or hair mask from top to bottom. Want to level up? Leave it on for an hour or even overnight (shower cap recommended). Your extensions will thank you with extra softness and shine!
Step 5: Rinse out each weft
Rinse each weft thoroughly - we're aiming for squeaky clean, not product-heavy. For an extra boost of shine, finish with a cold water blast. It's like a refreshing splash for your extensions!
Step 6: Air dry your extensions
Gently squeeze out excess water and let your extensions air dry. It's the gentlest option and helps them last longer. If you're in a rush, use a blow dryer on cool with heat protectant spray. Your extensions, your choice!
Step 7: Comb each weft
Once dry, give your extensions a gentle comb-through with a wide-tooth comb. Start from the bottom and work your way up for tangle-free perfection. Add a touch of hair oil for extra smoothness and shine.
That's it now you know how to wash your clips and Doores hair extensions.
FAQ About Washing Hair Extensions
Q: How often should I wash my clip-in hair extensions?
A: The less you wash your hair extensions, the longer they will last you. We recommend to wash your hair extensions every 15-20 wears or so, depending on how much product you use on them. Remember, since the hair extensions aren’t actually attached to your scalp, they don’t get oily like your natural hair and therefore don’t need to be washed as often. The only reason you need to wash your hair extensions is to get rid of excess product buildup, or if you’ve worn your hair extensions about 15-20 times and they need some refreshing.
