Instant Gratification With Extensions

What’s not to love about hair extensions? They give you instant hairstyle gratification, they let you up your hair’s natural volume and texture, and they give you the depth and nuance of color without any chemical processing. It’s a win-win-win situation. And even though the weather is heating up, there’s no reason not to opt for extensions when you’re in the mood to instantly switch it up.
Sun, salt and chlorine are never your hair’s best friends, and that’s also true for your extensions. If you’ll be spending time at the beach or the pool, add to your ensemble with a hat or scarf to protect both your natural hair as well as your extensions. Before taking a dip, put your hair up into a bun or a loose braid to keep it high and dry so that your extensions don’t end up soaking in the water. When you’re done for the day, use a good, gentle shampoo to remove the salt and chlorine. And even though salt spray is all the styling rage this summer, it’s not a good idea for extensions. Get similar results from a spritz of leave-in conditioner instead, and then wind small sections around the handle of a makeup brush for instant beachy waves.
And speaking of conditioners, summer fun in the sun can really dry out both your natural hair as well as your extensions. So don’t skimp on the conditioner after you shampoo. Your stylist can recommend products that will both hydrate your hair and give you some TLC for your extensions all at the same time. Consider applying a detangler to the ends, too. It will help you get all of your hair smooth and tangle-free without any struggles or pulling.
