Whether your chosen Hair Extension Method is temporary or semi-permanent, it’s important to give them a break from heat styling every once in awhile. Having your hair extensions last is not only important for you but also your wallet. If you’ve taken the better route of choosing a 100% Remy Hair Extensions then you will need to treat your extensions like you would your own hair. Minimize the amount of heat damage by air drying your extensions most of the time. Below are tips to air dry your hair extensions:
Wring Out the Water
After you’ve used a hair extension safe shampoo and conditioner, it’s important to start with a solid foundation. Get rid of access water and speed up the air-drying process by gently wringing our your hair extensions. Use a wet brush and brush through your extensions, then gently wring the hair again to remove any water leftover. Brushing the hair extensions also ensures there will be no tangling after they are dry.
Dry With a Towel
Gently wrap your extensions in a soft towel. Let this sit for a few minutes so the towel can soak up water. We recommend using a microfiber towel because it is absorbent and doesn’t damage or make your hair frizzy.
Hang Dry
After a few minutes, unwrap the towel. Gently brush through using a wet brush. Allow your hair to hang dry (whether they’re clip-ins or attached to your hair) so the water can evaporate.
Don’t Touch
When your hair extensions are hang drying remember not to touch them. If you touch them it can create unwelcome kinks and texture.
