How to Make Old Human Hair Extensions Smooth and Silky Again

Human hair extensions are created to add volume, length and thickness to hair that may be lacking in those aspects. Over time, hair extensions may frizz or dull due to normal wear and tear and washing. While the extensions typically last six to eight months, there are preventative measures and ongoing methods to create shiny and healthy looking hair extensions. When treating hair extensions it is important to remember that real hair receives natural oils from the hair root but hair extensions do not, and therefore require a more gentle treatment than real hair on your head.

Things need to be prepared:Salon-approved shampoo,Salon-approved conditioner,Anti-frizz serum.

Instructions for it:
1.Wash hair extensions using a salon quality shampoo. Less inexpensive shampoos may contain more detergent, which leaves hair extensions dull and lifeless. Create a thick, rich later from the shampoo and use your fingers to pull the shampoo through the hair from root to tip. Do not scrunch when washing hair.

2.Rinse thoroughly and repeat the process with salon approved conditioner. Leave the conditioner on hair for five to 10 minutes to allow the hair extensions to soak in the moisture. Because hair extensions do not grow from your head they do not contain natural moisture and oils. Rinse with cool water completely.

3.Apply a spray on conditioner or an anti-frizz serum to the hair extensions before it dries. Use a comb or fingers to push the product through hair to get the best results!

4.Apply a heat safe gel to the hair to prevent unnecessary drying to the extensions when using a blow dryer. The gel will form a protective shield around the hair to help avoid fraying and breakage.

5.Comb hair extensions through when drying. Do not use a hair brush because it will pull the wet hair too hard, creating frizz that you don't like.
