NBR HOME CARE

WASHING

 

Brush out extensions with a wet brush before getting into the shower. This helps prevent deep tangles and matting. 

 

Use a sulfate free shampoo and conditioner to prolong your haircolor and the extension color as well. Shampoo gently between the rows, no need for vigorous scrubbing. 

 

Use a leave in + oil combo, right after you shower or before brushing out your hair and extensions with a wet brush (again) (I recommend Unite 7 Second Detangler and U-Oil)

 

When brushing wet hair, start from your ends and work your way up to the scalp. Hold the hair in one hand (pinched like a ponytail) and brush down. 

 

STYLING

 

Rough dry your hair 80% of the way (meaning no tugging at the extensions with a round brush or comb, just use your hands/fingers). This applies to Dry Bars as well. It is important to let whoever styles your hair to NOT round brush your hair from start to finish of your blow-dry. 

 

You can use a round brush and a small amount of tension to smooth your hair and the extension hair, the last few minutes of your blow-dry. 

 

If curling your extensions, run the extension hair through your curling iron to smooth the hair once or twice, before placing the curls. This will give your extensions a more polished look, close the cuticle and prolong the extension hair. 

 

Feel free to use a heat protectant like Unite 7 Second Glossing Spray. 

 

SLEEPING

 

Brush the extension hair out and then place in a loose ponytail or braid. 

 

Never go to bed with your hair wet. This helps prevent matting of your and the extension hair. 

​

 

OTHER

 

After a few washes, the extension hair will  expand and take on a more realistic texture

​​

If you notice any excessive tangling, or hair shedding, please contact me immediately, as these area quick fix when addressed right away. 

​

Careful when using sunscreen to not get it on the extension hair.  It can turn lighter tones a peachy color, which results in hair needing to be replaced. Use mineral sunscreen only to prevent this from occurring. 

​

If you loose a bead or anything is bothering you, please contact me. 

​

You can live a normal, even active lifestyle with NBR, just treat the extensions with some TLC  to keep them looking their best, the longest. I hope you love your Natural Beaded Row Extensions as much as I do!
