The Ultimate Guide to Revive Your Hair Extensions After Unboxing

Opening a box filled with new hair extensions is always an exciting moment! Whether you're looking to add length, volume, or a whole new style to your hair, the possibilities are endless with Doores hair extensions. But if you're wondering why your extensions might look a little flat or lifeless when you first take them out of the box, don’t worry—it’s totally normal!
Hair extensions, especially high-quality, real human hair like ours, can sometimes need a little TLC after being packaged tightly for shipping. Here’s a ultimate guide on how to take care of your extensions right after you unbox them, so they’re ready to rock that fabulous look.

Why Do My Extensions Look Flat?

When you first open your Doores hair extensions, you may notice that they seem a bit flat, lifeless, or even tangled. This is a common occurrence. During the shipping process, hair extensions get compressed to fit in the box, which can flatten the natural volume. The good news is that with a little love and care, you can bring them back to life!

Step 1: Inspect the Hair

The first thing you want to do after opening your box is to carefully inspect your new extensions. Run your fingers through them gently to check the texture and quality. Since Doores uses 100% real human hair, you’ll notice that the hair feels soft and natural. If you see any loose strands or small tangles, don’t worry—this can happen during packaging. It’s time to detangle!

Step 2: Detangle Gently

Using a wide-tooth comb or your fingers, gently detangle your extensions. Start at the ends and work your way up to the roots to avoid causing breakage. If you encounter any knots, don’t yank at them—just gently work through them. Detangling helps restore the natural flow of the hair and ensures that it’s smooth and ready for styling.

Step 3: Wash (If Desired)

While our Doores extensions are ready to wear straight out of the box, you might want to give them a fresh wash. Here’s how to do it the right way:

• Shampoo: Use lukewarm water and a sulfate-free shampoo. This helps cleanse the hair without stripping it of its natural oils.
• Condition: Follow up with a hydrating conditioner. Since our extensions are made from real human hair, conditioning them is essential to keep them soft and shiny.
• Rinse: Be sure to rinse thoroughly. Avoid wringing or twisting the hair—just gently squeeze out excess water using a microfiber towel.

Once your extensions are clean, let them air dry or use a blow dryer on a cool setting. Air-drying is always the gentlest option to prevent heat damage.

Step 4: Add Volume & Style

Now that your extensions are detangled and clean, it’s time to style them! Here’s where you can really have fun:

• Add Volume: To restore the natural volume that might have been flattened in shipping, you can use a volumizing spray or mousse. Simply spritz the product onto your extensions and gently comb through.
• Curl or Straighten: Our all extensions, including our I-tip and U-tip from the Pro Series, are heat-friendly, so you can style them just like your natural hair. Whether you’re looking to curl, wave, or straighten, feel free to use your favorite styling tools. Just remember to apply a heat protectant to avoid damage.

You’ll notice that after a little styling, your extensions will have that gorgeous, voluminous look you were expecting!

Step 5: Proper Storage

When you're not wearing your extensions, it's important to store them properly to keep them looking their best. Avoid tossing them in a drawer or leaving them exposed to sunlight. To preserve the hair's texture and longevity:

• Store your extensions in a breathable bag or the original packaging.
• Keep them in a cool, dry place to prevent tangling and to protect them from moisture or dust.

Proper storage helps your extensions stay tangle-free and ensures they last as long as possible.
