I wanted to take a moment to address some frequently asked questions and common concerns regarding extensions.
Question 1: Can extensions be shampooed the same way as natural hair?
Yes, extensions can be shampooed like your own hair.
However, due to the additional hair, hardware, and beads involved, there are a few differences to keep in mind.
When shampooing, focus on the areas where your scalp tends to get oily, typically around the top of your head.
Ensure thorough cleansing by gently applying shampoo to the extensions, massaging it in, and rinsing for approximately five minutes.
Sectioning your hair during rinsing allows the water to thoroughly clean the extensions and scalp, promoting a healthy environment.
During your installation appointment, we provide detailed instructions on proper shampooing techniques.
Question 2: Do extensions hurt?
It depends on the person. Some individuals don't experience any tension or pain at all but rather need some time to adjust to the added weight. It can feel similar to having your hair in a braid or a low ponytail all day, where the scalp isn't sore, but you're aware of the hair being styled.
However, for those who are more tender-headed, adjusting to the weight may pose a slight challenge. Rest assured, our installation techniques are designed for your comfort.
Question 3: Can I use styling tools, such as curling irons and blow dryers, on my extensions?
Absolutely! We highly recommend blow drying your roots after shampooing, as it helps maintain a fresh look. You don't have to blow dry your entire hair, as extensions tend to absorb more water and require more time to dry. Feel free to use your preferred styling tools to achieve your desired look.
I hope this helps clarify any concerns you may have had. As always, please feel free to reach out to us if you have any further questions or need additional guidance.
We truly appreciate your continued support and look forward to making your experience at Luna Jade salon exceptional.
