WE WANT TO CREATE EPIC MANES WITH A NATURAL FLOW TO THEM. CHOOSING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WEFT EXTENSIONS OR KERATIN BONDS CAN BE A LITTLE BIT TRICKY, SO LET’S BREAK IT DOWN FOR YOU.
THE DIFFERENCE
WEFT EXTENSIONS
THINK OF THESE LIKE A FULL-ON HAIR CURTAIN. THEY COME IN STRIPS (WEFTS) THAT GET SEWN IN TO BEADS THAT ARE ATTACHED TO YOUR HAIR. PERFECT IF YOU WANT MAJOR VOLUME AND LENGTH FAST — KINDA LIKE LAYING DOWN A FULL CARPET OF HAIR. GREAT FOR BIG, BOLD TRANSFORMATIONS.
KERATIN BOND EXTENSIONS
THESE ARE THE VIPS OF EXTENSIONS — INDIVIDUAL STRANDS SEALED WITH KERATIN BONDS THAT BLEND SEAMLESSLY WITH YOUR NATURAL HAIR. THEY’RE SUPER DISCREET AND FLEXIBLE, LETTING YOU MOVE, STYLE, AND FLIP YOUR HAIR WITHOUT GIVING AWAY THE SECRET.
SO, IF YOU WANT BIG, FAST, AND FULL, GO WEFTS. IF YOU WANT NATURAL, LOW-KEY, AND LONG-LASTING, KERATIN BONDS GOT YOU. COOL?

Alright, you just got that fresh install — now let’s keep it lookin’ good. Here’s the game plan:
TAME YOUR MANE
TAME YOUR MANE
HANDS OFF, LADY.
LET THOSE EXTENSIONS SETTLE FOR AT LEAST 48 HOURS. THAT MEANS NO WASHING, NO HEAVY STYLING — LET THE MAGIC MARINATE.
CONDITION, BUT DON’T DROWN.
MID-LENGTH TO ENDS ONLY. KEEP THAT CONDITIONER FAR FROM YOUR ROOTS UNLESS YOU’RE TRYNA MAKE YOUR INSTALL SLIDE OUT EARLY.
TIGHT STYLES? CHILL.
TOO MUCH TENSION = GOODBYE HEALTHY SCALP AND EARLY EXTENSION RETIREMENT. LOOSEN IT UP.
BRUSH LIKE A BOSS.
USE A WIDE-TOOTH COMB OR DETANGLE BRUSH. START AT THE ENDS AND WORK YOUR WAY UP. BE GENTLE — THIS AIN’T A TUG-OF-WAR.
SLEEP PRETTY.
SILK OR SATIN BONNET, OR A SILK PILLOWCASE IF YOU’RE FANCY. BONUS POINTS IF YOU BRAID OR PONYTAIL IT BEFORE BED — NO TANGLES IN THIS HOUSE.
SHOW UP FOR YOUR MAINTENANCE.
FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENTS ARE NON-NEGOTIABLE. THAT’S HOW YOU KEEP YOUR REAL HAIR HEALTHY AND THE LOOK ON POINT.
WASH DAYS? MAKE ‘EM COUNT.
USE SULFATE-FREE SHAMPOO, AND WASH IN A DOWNWARD MOTION. NO FLIPPING YOUR HAIR ALL OVER THE PLACE — WE’RE NOT IN A SHAMPOO COMMERCIAL… UNLESS YOU WANNA BE?
HEAT WITH CAUTION.
YOU CAN STYLE, BUT BE GENTLE. USE A HEAT PROTECTANT, KEEP IT MEDIUM-TEMP, AND YOU’RE GOLDEN.
YOU WEAR THE HAIR — DON’T LET IT WEAR YOU. KEEP IT CLEAN, KEEP IT CUTE, AND LET THAT CONFIDENCE DO THE TALKING.
