To keep your extensions looking their best, wash your hair 1-2 times a week with Goldie Locks shampoo and conditioner. Avoid daily washing to extend the life of your extensions. Before washing, brush out all tangles. If you have multiple rows, section them half up, half down to wash between the rows. Gently wash without rubbing the ends together. Apply conditioner from the ears down, avoiding the scalp and extension ties to prevent buildup. Use a wet brush or wide-tooth comb to distribute the conditioner before rinsing. For a quick wash, section off the top part of your hair, braid or tie the extensions, and wash only the top section. After washing, apply Goldie Locks serum and leave-in conditioner before drying, and use the serum again once dried. This method allows for daily washing if needed.

Gently squeeze the water out of your hair, do not rub! You should moisturize your hair daily, with a leave in conditioner and serum depending on your hair texture. Make sure before drying that you protect your hair with a heat protectant. Follow with brushing through with a wet brush. Before drying make sure each row is completely brushed out from the top of the weft, to the bottom. I don’t recommend letting your extensions air dry unless you have "ibe one' hair, but if you wish make sure the top of the row (where is is attached to your head) is completely dry to prevent matting and molding. Your hair must be completely dry before going to bed.

I recommend to braid your hair or put in a low bun for sleep. It’s also best to sleep on a silk pillowcase Cotton pillowcases can cause frizz and split ends over time. Silk pillowcases are much more gentle on your hair. in cases of very restless sleep a wide headband keeps your extensions secure. Do not sleep on your extensions while they’re wet, it will damage your natural hair and can cause matting and mold.

You can straighten and curl your hair extensions just like your natural hair. Always apply a heat protectant before using hot tools, and remember that less heat is better. Extensions hold styles well, so you can style less frequently. After washing and drying, curl your hair and touch up the curls throughout the week. Brush your hair multiple times a day to avoid tangles and matting, using a wet brush for gentle effectiveness. Brush all the way up to the seam of your extensions to prevent matting at the roots, but be gentle near the top of the wefts to avoid damaging them. You can easily put your hair up in a high ponytail or bun without worrying about visible beads or tape. Flip your head upside down to gather the rows all at once for a neat style.

Yes, you can swim with hair extensions, but be cautious. Minerals in some water can cause discoloration or dryness. Saltwater is particularly drying and can cause severe matting, so consider removing extensions before ocean swimming. If you swim in the ocean, wet your hair with fresh water first and rinse and condition immediately after. For pool or lake swimming, wet your hair first, apply a leave-in conditioner or hair mask, comb through, and braid or tie your hair in a bun or ponytail. Brush and wash your hair immediately after swimming. Be cautious with sunscreen, as some ingredients can discolor extensions. Use brands like Bare Republic and avoid sunscreens with Avobenzone.
