How to Wash Synthetic Hair Extensions

Synthetic hair extensions

Detangle

  • Gently brush the extensions with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to remove any tangles before washing.

Prepare the Wash

  • Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water.
  • Add a small amount of sulfate-free, gentle shampoo and mix to create a light lather.

Wash

  • Submerge the extensions in the water and gently swish them around. Avoid scrubbing or twisting the fibers, as this can cause tangling.

Rinse

  • Rinse thoroughly with cool water until all shampoo is removed.

Condition (Optional)

  • If the extensions are labeled as condition-safe, apply a small amount of synthetic hair conditioner, focusing on the ends. Rinse again with cool water.

Dry

  • Gently squeeze out excess water without wringing.
  • Lay the extensions flat on a towel to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight or heat sources.

Style

  • Once completely dry, gently detangle again and style as desired. Avoid using heat tools unless absolutely necessary, and never exceed 180°C.

How to Brush Synthetic Extensions

  • The Right Brush:
    Use a wide-tooth comb or a special wig brush designed for your extensions’ royal care.
  • Start from the Ends:
    Begin brushing gently at the very ends, and work your way up slowly and gracefully to avoid tangling.
  • Handle with Care:
    Avoid pulling or tugging the fibers—treat your extensions like the crown jewels, to prevent unnecessary strain on your magical locks.
  • Separate Brushes for a Princess:
    Keep your extension brush just for your enchanted tresses. This way, natural oils from your own hair won't sneak in, keeping your extensions clean and luxurious for longer.
