How Do L Care For My Clip In Hair Extensions?

This is the easiest part! If you don’t wear product, or much of it, and you wear the extensions only once or twice a week, you shouldn’t need to wash them more than about once a month. There are some that like to let them go for a while and wash them once or twice a year! If you wear them every day, and wear product in them a lot, then maybe you would want to wash them once a week or once a fortnight.
To wash them, all you need to do is fill a sink up with water that has about a tablespoon of good shampoo in it (VO5 is the best from a supermarket, but a good color holding one from a salon or other professional hair care outlet is better). Just let the extensions soak in the water for about 5 minutes, and without scrunching them up, just swirl them around in the water to encourage circulation and lathering. Remove from the water and rinse.

Then simply fill the sink up again and add another tablespoon of good conditioner to the water, and maybe a little to the hair extensions themselves, and sit in the water again for a couple of minutes. Swirl them around again, and take them out. With your index and middle finger on either side of each extension piece, simply squeeze the water out of the hair, by moving down the hair from the top to the bottom, and lay them flat or hang them to dry. If you prefer, hold each piece up and blow dry them until they are dry, and them run a hair iron down them to make them nice and new and straight again, just like when you got them brand new in the pack!
