After taking the time and investing in Remy hair extensions from PerfectLocks, you’re likely lovin’ your new look. Naturally, you’d want to maintain that look as long as you can. While your Perfect Locks hair extensions will normally last between 5 and 10 months depending on how fast your hair grows, you can easily add months to that simply by knowing a few of the secrets when it comes to caring for your PerfectLocks.

Sleeping With Perfect Locks Remy Hair Extensions

Sleeping can be extremely hard on your new ‘do. When you sleep you can easily pull on your Peferct Locks hair extensions without realizing it. To prevent this from happening, pull it back into a ponytail or even braid it before going to sleep. You should also refrain from sleeping with wet hair, which will inevitably weaken the strands and the method used to hold them in place. You might want to consider using a diffuser on your hair blower to prevent heat damage to your Perfect Locks.

Take Care When Getting Your Perfect Locks Wet

While you want to keep remy hair extensions clean, you don’t want to leave them wet longer than you have to. You should also try to limit the exposure of your PerfectLocks hair extensions to harsh chemicals such as chlorine, which can suck a large portion of their lifespan and make them appear dull and lifeless.

Therefore, if you decide to go for a swim, be sure to wear a cap and wash/condition your Perfect Locks as soon as possible after getting out of the water. When you do wash them, be sure not to place the conditioner on where the extension meets your natural hair. This can cause them to slip and can weaken the bond between the two surfaces. Just rinse your PerfectLocks hair extensions well and use a large tooth comb to detangle. And, never use a towel to pull or rub harshly on your hair.

Selecting Hair Care Products for Use on Your Perfect Locks

When it comes to styling your Perfect Locks Remy hair extensions, you want to choose your products wisely. ‘Two in one’ shampoos and those that contain substances such as silicone, alcohol, sulphur, and wax are extremely hard on this type of beauty treatment. You should also avoid using bargain hair care products on your PerfectLocks as well as any harsh treatments such as perms or colors.

These are just a few things you’ll find can extend the life of your PerfectLocks Remy hair extensions. Of course following general tips for hair care such as protecting it against extreme heat, keeping it clean, and using a spray on conditioner between washes can all help. Although these steps seem simple, they are very important when you look at the whole picture.
