Since I've been in the Beauty Industry, I've worn every texture and pattern of hair extension pieces, custom units, synthetic hair fibers and human hair textures you can think of. I felt it was my duty as a Hair Extension Specialist to give my Clients more than an educated guess about how to take care of their hair... I've been pretty much swimming since I was a child so when I became a Hairstylist, I learned early the do's and don'ts of maintaining the health of my hair in addition to making sure my weave looked good.
When wearing sewn in weaves or securely attached hair extensions like micro-links, tape ins while surfing, you'll need to get this down so you can have as minimal maintenance as possible.
Things needed for your Sewn in Weave
- To prevent detangling sulfate free moisturizing shampoo
- Tea Tree Oil or Apple Cider Vinegar (in a spray bottle) helps remove smells that are trapped in between your hair extensions. You can use before or after the cleansing.
- Only use a conditioner that you rinse out if you're wearing (Virgin Human Hair only)
- Detangling leave in conditioner (kids detanglers are my favorite)
- A light oil for the scalp (Jojoba, Almond, Coconut or Argan)
- Detangling Wet large Paddle Brush / wet wide tooth comb)
- Heat Protectant for hot styling
- Shine serum (typically I use a little before I dry the hair and after)
- Satin bonnet or Silk Pillowcase to sleep on
