The key to maintaining RAW & Virgin hair is to make sure it’s not being overly manipulated, heavily processed and weighed down by product. Use a pea to a dime size of lightweight oil to keep your extensions shiny, featherweight, bouncy, manageable and beautiful.
Always detangle extensions while wet it makes them less subject-able to breakage. Also, before bed use a silk bonnet, scarf or pillowcase to allow moisture to stay within the strands of your extensions which will result in longer lasting hair.
Want to give your extensions an extra boost of love and lusciousness?

INSTALLATION TIPS
Use the over and under method along with the fold over method when installing your hair to ensure minimal to no shedding. Not required, but you may seal your wefts using a good quality weft sealant. Also, we don’t recommend cutting your wefts only when absolutely necessary.
