K-tip Hair Extensions Maintenance Guide
Welcome back friend!
I hope you have fallen in love with your k-tip extensions. I have created this guide just for you with everything you need to know about home care in order to set you up for success.
CLEANSING
Wait at least 48 hours before washing, extensively sweating or using product near the bonds.
Thoroughly brush your hair BEFORE showering to avoid excessive tangling.
Use a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner.
Shampoo twice using gentle motions. Be sure to rinse hair very thoroughly.
Apply conditioner to mid-lengths and ends only, avoiding bond areas. And again, rinse very thoroughly.
Use a deep conditioner 2-3 times a month to help increase the longevity of your extensions.
BRUSHING & SEPARATING
Brush hair at least twice daily, including before and after getting hair wet.
Brush gently starting at the ends and working your way up.
When brushing over the bonds, begin with the bristles facing up (as shown during your appointment).
Once weekly, use your fingers to separate each bond to ensure they are not merging.
STYLING
Always use a heat protectant prior to styling.
Be gentle. Use minimal tension.
Keep hot tools away from bonds.
SLEEPING
Make sure your hair is completely dry before going to bed.
Brush hair before going to bed.
Wear hair in a loose braid or ponytail.
Use a satin or silk pillowcase to reduce friction.
