AFTERCARE.

hand-tied extensions

  • For first time extension-wearers, it’s important to give the scalp a chance to accept that theres now a foreign object attached.

    However, how we install and what we install is extremely attentive and cautious of scalp health from day one.

    This will be closely monitored throughout your experience when wearing Luxury Hand-tied Extensions.

  • With it’s flexible tension, you will be able to pull your hair up without visibility or discomfort. With that being said, when wearing a ponytail or topknot, be sure to wear it very high or low. Meaning either near the occipital bone, or on the very top of your head. Give the extensions a chance to “flip” over by physically flipping your head over to pull it up. 

    If this step is neglected, This may cause damage inevitably. This also  may create the appearance of “flaps” or “wings” if ponytail is closer to the center of the head, causing maximum tension near the front of the extensions. Also be sure to use a scrunchy, invisibobble, or something non-abrasive to avoid breakage on both natural hair and extension hair if wearing this style often.

    1. Products
