Hair Replacement Maintenance
Hair Replacement & Hair Topper Care Guide
At our salon, we take the time needed to assess which brand of extension, method of application, amount of bundles, length in inches, and texture best suits each client through the complimentary consultation process.
How to Brush your Hair
Key Steps To Washing Your Hair Topper:
- Use only stylist-approved products to protect the attachment and balance pH.
- Wash at least once a week if hair feels dry; wash more often if you’re active or have an oily scalp.
- Avoid circular shampoo motions—use fingertips to gently press from roots to ends.
- Keep your head upright for downward flow; do not shampoo upside down.
- Apply conditioner from mid-shaft to ends—avoid the attachment zone.
- Detangle gently with a wet brush, from ends to roots.
- Rinse and towel-dry by patting (avoid rubbing).
- Air-dry whenever possible; if using heat, keep tools between 300–350°F and always use leave-in conditioner or oils to protect the hair.
Hair Replacement Aftercare
Always hold the piece with one hand, while brushing with the other, in order to avoid excessive tension at the root area.
If you are going to be swimming always wet your hair with fresh water and use a conditioning mask on the middle to ends of the hair. Hair is like a sponge so if its full of fresh water and deep conditioner, it will not be easy for it to absorb salt water or chlorine. Then secure your hair in a low ponytail or braid so that it is not free flowing in the water. Free flowing hair can easily get tangled. When you know that you will no longer be getting back in the water, rinse with fresh water again. At your earliest convenience wash and condition your hair.
Dry your hair thoroughly before going to bed. Never go to bed with wet hair.
Curling irons, flat irons, wavers, and hot rollers may be used but avoid too much heat at the attachment.
Color can be done with the piece in as long as it done by a professional. We prefer to do the color at the same time the piece is getting maintenance.
Hair Topper Maintenance
Plan to schedule maintenance with your stylist every four to six weeks to maintain beautiful healthy hair.
A follow up appointment is a complimentary service to ensure the best condition of your new hair. This service is included in first time hair purchases.
Two weeks after the hair is applied, you come in so we can show you how to brush, wash, condition, blow dry, and style the hair addition. We also assess the growth and shed rate to determine when the move up will be. We can also make any changes such as, cutting the length or adding more layers. By this appointment, most clients will have washed their hair a few times and we are happy to answer any questions.
Removals are done in a gentle and non-damaging way when done by a certified stylist.
“I would give a million stars if I could!
I was growing my hair out from chemotherapy and didn’t want to wear a wig for my wedding day. Jordan helped me choose the best option for extensions and amazingly color-matched my natural brunette hair color. She was so caring and just a beautiful person inside and out!”
