Be Careful When Washing Your Hair
If you are washing your hair at home and not at a salon, do not rub your hair. Be sure to gently brush the top of your hair along the strands at the roots. As for the lower part of your hair, wash it naturally.
Do Not Go To Bed With Wet Hair
For hand tied hair extensions, you shouldn’t go to bed with wet hair (I never do that anyway, so it doesn’t matter to me!).
Other than that, you can take care of them as honestly as you would your own real hair. You will find that after a few months they are in great shape and even if you haven’t installed them in a while, you can reinstall them again!
