Mastering the Art: A Step-by-Step Guide on How to Brush Your Hair Extensions

by Hairxtensions .co.uk Hair Extensions UK

Hair extensions can instantly give you a whole new look. To make sure that they remain beautiful and last as long as possible,  you need to use the right hair extension aftercare products and brush them properly to avoid matting, tangling, and shedding.

 

Unlike your natural hair, extensions need a gentle touch and specialised hair extension tools. Forget the root-to-tip brushing you're used to. Instead, grab a specially-designed hair extension brush and start from the bottom. Use a looping motion to detangle each section, then gently work your way up. This prevents tangles, minimizes damage, and keeps your extensions looking their best!

 

 

Invest in the right care products.

 

If you’re thinking of buying new Remy extensions and caring for them yourself, it’s a good idea to also shop for hair extension aftercare products to extend their lifespan and maintain their quality. Look for specially formulated shampoos, conditioners, and protein sprays. Don’t forget to apply thermal protection serum before heat styling and treat the strands occasionally with Argan oil to keep them healthy.

 

It’s also a good idea to invest in hair extension tools — particularly brushes and combs designed for hair extensions. These brushes are engineered to glide through the strands easily without snagging hair wefts, micro-rings, tapes, and bonds.

 

 

How to brush your hair extensions

 

Once you have the right hair extension aftercare products and tools, take the time to learn and master this step-by-step guide for brushing:

 

 

·     Step 1: Section your hair using a comb or your fingers.

·     Step 2: Start brushing from the ends and downwards.

·     Step 3: Hold the extensions firmly at their attachment points with your free hand to avoid pulling on the roots or bonds. Then, brush downwards from the middle section towards the attachments.

·     Step 4: Loose knots by brushing downwards while taking care not to tear or pull.

·     Step 5: Gradually make your way up to the roots while brushing down

·     Step 6: When you reach the attachments or roots, turn your brush sideways and use the bristles lightly so they don’t tug at the attachments

·     Step 7: Repeat the brushing techniques one section at a time for the rest of the extensions.
