How to care for and wash weft hair so that it doesn't get tangled

To keep your hair weft in a good condition, there are things to remember when you use it. Here are some simple “do’s and don’ts” for keeping your weft hair beautiful.

Do’s

▶ First of all, wash your hair carefully and slowly so that the hair on the extensions won’t fall out. Washing newly-connected hair is quite a feat, it even causes pain if your hair is weak and sensitive. But washing your hair often is a must, if not it may cause some potential serious harm to your scalp, your own hair, and your extensions. Besides, compared to natural hair, after washing, it takes longer for the hair extension weft to dry. So, you will have to spend more time drying your hair.

▶ Use the right hair care products. There are some kinds of shampoos and conditioners specifically made for hair extensions that will help them stay strong and healthy. But you should carefully read product ingredients and choose low detergent ones.

▶ When you wash your hair, rub the hair from the forehead towards the back of your head and gently brush from the hair roots to the ends.

▶ Use some conditioner after washing with shampoo for silky hair.

▶ When going to bed, you should tie your hair loosely to one side then wrap your hair in a thin silk scarf to help to prevent your hair from tangling and uncomfortable sleeping.

▶ In fact, hair extensions cannot absorb nutrients, because they are dead hair. However, increasing absorption is still a good thing to do after doing hair extensions, because your own hair needs more nutrients to be able to grow healthy. Every 2-3 months, when the hairline grows, you should go to the hair salon to check the joints and tighten them. The cost for the hair extension routine care is also not too much.

Don’ts

▶ Don’t pull the hair extension to prevent the hair joint from loosening no matter how tight it was previously.

▶ Don’t dye, press, or curl your hair extensions yourself. If you want to do that, Messi Hair recommends you to get it at a hair salon.
