How to Care for Hair Extensions

GrzechHair offers natural hair extensions. Proper care is essential to keep them looking beautiful and in good condition for as long as possible. Follow a few simple rules when washing, brushing, styling and sleeping with your hair extensions.

Sleeping

Always brush your hair before going to bed and braid it or tie it in a loose ponytail. Never sleep with wet, tangled or loose hair, as this can cause matting and tangling.

Washing

Wash your hair in an upright position using lukewarm water. Gently massage the scalp and the spaces between the bonds with your fingertips. Avoid circular movements, rubbing or scrubbing the hair, as these can cause tangling.

We recommend using intensely moisturising products, such as Beauties by G moisturising shampoo. After washing, gently squeeze out excess water with a soft towel – do not rub the hair.

Apply Beauties by G moisturising conditioner from approximately ear level down to the ends. Do not apply conditioner, masks, oils or other care products directly to the bonds, as this may weaken them and cause the extensions to slip.

Brushing

Brush your hair thoroughly before washing. Start at the ends and gradually work your way upwards. Hair is more delicate when wet, so avoid aggressive brushing and always handle it gently.

Use a brush suitable for hair extensions, which allows you to brush the hair without damaging the bonds.

Drying and Heat Styling

Natural hair extensions can be blow-dried, straightened and curled. Always use heat protection and make sure the hair is dry before using a straightener or curling iron.

Avoid applying excessive heat directly to the bonds or attachment points.

Colouring and Chemical Treatments

Hair extensions can be coloured, but any colouring or chemical treatment is carried out at your own risk and voids the product warranty. Avoid bleaching and other aggressive chemical treatments. If you want to adjust or refresh the colour, we recommend choosing a gentler treatment such as toning whenever possible.

Curly and Wavy Hair

Curly and wavy hair requires intensive moisturising care. Brush the hair gently before washing and use moisturising conditioners, masks and oils to help reduce frizz and maintain the hair's condition.

After washing, allow the hair to dry partially, gently comb through it if necessary and apply a small amount of oil to the lengths and ends. Gently scrunch the hair to help maintain its natural wave or curl.

Swimming, Sport and Summer Care

When exercising, we recommend braiding or tying your hair to reduce tangling. Chlorinated pool water and salt water can affect both the condition and colour of hair extensions, so rinse and wash your hair thoroughly after swimming.

Be careful with self-tanning products, tanning oils, bronzing lotions and similar cosmetics, especially during summer. Contact with these products may cause changes to the colour of hair extensions.
