Wash the hair in one direction. From top to bottom. Avoid washing hair upside down in the sink. Use shampoos and conditioners that are for dry hair and add the most moisture. Wash hair right after swimming. When brushing your hair, start from the bottom and work your way up while holding the top part to keep it from shedding or stretching!

Hair Extensions are perfect for most people. However, there could be factors, such as unsuitable current hair condition, hair loss, or hair damage that could prevent extensions from being an option. These factors will be discussed during your consultation.

Braids can be damaging to the scalp and hair if you fail to cleanse, moisturize, and treat the scalp. Beware of tight braids that pull the hair follicles. Damaged scalp and hair can result in severe and permanent hair loss. We recommend frequent cleansing with The Best Salon Professional Moisturizing Shampoo™ featuring C.A.N.T.E.L.™. Thoroughly towel dry all braided extensions by carefully blotting all sections. Then, liberally apply Africare Hair and Body Oil™ over the scalp.
