"Jordan and team are the Best in the business!!! She has transformed my hair with fabulous extensions and unbelievable color!! They are kind and professional and make you feel like a queen!"
How to Brush your Keratin Fusion Extensions:
Using a boar bristle and nylon, or a Lavish Locks brush, brush your hair extensions at least two times a day and before every shampoo. Start detangling the ends first and then work your way up to the scalp. Make sure the extensions are tangle free at the bonded area. As your hair grows, the natural shedding gets trapped in the bond and doesn’t get released until the extension is removed. Sometimes that hair that is trapped in there can start tangling if the hair above the bond isn’t brushed well. Sorting through the extensions to the scalp is recommended daily.
Washing your Keratin Fusion Extensions:
Wait 48 hours to wash your hair after the extension application.
Only use stylist approved products. Certain products are designed to wash and condition the extensions appropriately, without compromising the attachment zone, and balance the ph.
If your hair is “dry” wash your extensions at least once a week to prevent natural oils from accumulating at the scalp area. If you are oily or your lifestyle is more active, wash more frequently. We can help you determine the proper time to wait in between washes because each client is unique.
Do not shampoo in large circular motions that could cause knotting. Using fingertips instead of finger nails is much healthier for the scalp and hair additions. Press and squeeze the shampoo gently through the hair from roots to ends. Repeat as needed.
Thoroughly wet the hair. Your head should be in an upright position so the hair is in a down ward flow. Do not shampoo upside down. Distribute shampoo evenly in your hands and apply to the root working it to the ends.
Distribute conditioner using downward strokes from mid-shaft to ends. Never get conditioner on the attachment area. The scalp does not need to be conditioned because the natural oils will do it.
With the conditioner in the hair gently use the wet bush to detangle the hair from ends to root and let it set for a few minutes.
Rinse conditioner and towel dry the extensions with a squeezing or patting method. Do not rub the hair against the towel. Too much friction can cause damage.
Let hair air dry whenever possible, but blow drying can still be done every time after each wash. Try to avoid extremely high heat from blow dryers, flat irons, and curling wands especially at the attachment area. Leaving the heat on too long can burn the extensions. We recommend 300 to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Leave in conditioner or oils will help keep the integrity of both your natural hair and the extensions.
Keratin Fusion Extension Aftercare:
Always hold the extensions 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 especially near the bonded area.
Curling irons, flat irons, wavers, and hot rollers may be used but avoid too much heat at the attachment.
Long extensions should be braided or put in a low ponytail to prevent tangling and matting while sleeping.
Color can be done with the extensions in as long as it done by a professional.
Fusion Extensions Follow-ups:
Plan to schedule maintenance with your stylist every three to six months 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 extensions. 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.
Love Notes From Clients

I don’t leave many reviews however, this place and all of their amazing staff deserve a huge Thank you and genuine shout out. I heard about Lavish Locks... read more from a co-worker and started following them on Instagram for about a month before I finally took the plunge and went in for my consultation. It was important to me that they understood how important the overall integrity of my hair was to me and I saw that once I started to watch how they treated their other clients. When I went into my consultation I met with Jordan and her Mom and instantly fell comfortable as all of my questions were thoroughly answered. My biggest concern was my wedding ceremony in the Maldives exactly two weeks after getting a hair topper and two hand tied wefts as I knew I would be in the Indian Ocean along with hot tub and pool time. Amanda completed my install from start to finish and taught me EXACTLY how to care for my new investment and properly protect them while on my elopement/honeymoon. Today, as I leave this exotic country and head back to the states 4 weeks after my hair addition installation my hair still looks INCREDIBLE! I’m so grateful I decided to start my journey with Amanda and the Lavish Locks team!! THANK YOU 🌺
