Maintaining your hair extension weaves


A hair extension weave made from human hair is a wonderful investment. If maintained properly this can last quite long and still look fabulous. Sewn right into your hair, a hair extension weave can be made indistinguishable from your own hair while adding length and volume that you always wished for. Following these simple tips will allow your magnificent mane of hair maintain its quality and splendor for months.
1.      When combing your hair, start from the lower end removing snarls gently holding your hair form the top so the individual strands don’t fall.
2.      Make sure you comb out any tangles in your hair before washing since combing wet hair can do much damage.
3.      Use high quality shampoo to wash your hair extensions as cheaper alternatives can leave your hair dry. Also avoid products containing alcohol as this will dull the shine.
4.      Regardless of the shampoo and conditioner that you choose, rinse thoroughly between the tracks and remove residue and prevent build up.
5.      Even though it feels great to scrub your scalp when you wash you hair with weft hair extensions on, don’t rub it too hard or you may loosen the tracks. Just smooth the shampoo and conditioner instead.
  1. Pat your hair dry and let them dry in air instead of tightly wrapping them in a towel, that could pull out the extension tracks.
  2. While most of the hair styling products are not recommended for those wearing hair extensions, using good ones is just fine.
  3. Have your extension weave professionally tightened to assure these stay in place. Loosening of tracks happen gradually, and this will make sure they stay in place where they belong.
  4. Sleep on a satin pillow to assure your head move freely without disrupting the weave.
  5. If you are swimming, a swim cap is must as chlorine in water can dull and discolor your hair.
When you are to remove the human hair weave, get it done professionally as well.

Find perfect hair style


Finding the right looking way to wear and/or style our hair is a typical problem we all share. Fortunately hair grows and replaces itself, so almost anything you do will "isn’t permanent".
As a result trying a new length, shape, or hair color ought to be a fun experience as opposed to a scary one. It's all a part of the self-discovery process.
It doesn't matter how you style your hair now, changing the length and shape periodically will help you keep up with the "natural changes" your hair and facial expression under go with time. What once proved helpful when you were young might not act as along with you age.
It might come like a surprise but if you look closely you will find that most of the classic hairstyles are the consequence of what each hair type does naturally and uniquely.
With few exceptions, I've found that almost everyone's natural haired suits them best when "cut-shaped-styled" to create out its hidden beauty.
The secret to finding the "perfect hairstyle" is to simply use what the hair does naturally and design your look around it. With a custom shaping it is simple to dress it up or simply shampoo, comb and go.
You'll save some time and look good even when you don't have time to style hair. However, the form and length must also complement your face shape and more importantly your specific facial expression.
It is important to remember is do the best you can using what you have. If you're not happy with what your hair does, or looks like naturally there are countless methods to change it out.
But keep in mind that none of these situations are permanent. Hair could be one of your most unique features.
