Follow this guide to keep your Clip-In, Tape-In, and Volume Weft looking their best.
Daily Care Rituals
Brushing: Keeping it Smooth
✔ Use a loop brush or wide-tooth comb to detangle.
✔ Start from the ends, working up to the roots.
✔ Always brush before washing or styling.
⨉ Never brush wet hair—it weakens the strands.
💡 Luxury tip: A loop brush prevents snagging—essential for seamless wear.
Washing: Clean, but Gently
Clip-Ins → Wash every 5-10 wears or as needed.
Tape-Ins & Volume Wefts → Wash 1-2 times a week, focusing on the scalp.
✔ Use: Sulfate-free shampoo, lukewarm water, gentle downward strokes.
✔ Condition: Mid-length to ends only—avoid roots for tape-ins/wefts.
✔ Rinse: Cool water to seal in moisture.
💡 Luxury tip: Deep condition weekly to maintain silkiness.
🔹 Hard Water Warning: If your water contains minerals, it can dry out and discolor your extensions over time. Use a clarifying rinse once a month to prevent buildup.
Drying: Protect the Strands
✔ Pat dry with a microfiber towel—never rub.
✔ Air dry whenever possible.
✔ If using heat, low setting + heat protectant is a must.

Nighttime Routine: Beauty Sleep for Hair
“The #1 mistake people make?
Not protecting their extensions at night.
A silk pillowcase is the easiest fix.”
— Bella-Lu Stylist
Nighttime Routine
Clip-Ins: Remove & store in a protective bag.
Tape-Ins & Wefts:
✔ Sleep with hair in a loose braid or ponytail to prevent tangling.
✔ Use a silk pillowcase—less friction, less breakage.
💡 Luxury tip: A silk pillowcase doesn’t just protect your extensions—it keeps your natural hair healthier too.
Heat Styling: Handle With Care
What's recommended
✔ Always use heat protectant spray.
✔ Max temp: 300°F (150°C) for longevity.
✔ Curls last longer with minimal heat—overuse can dry out the strands.
Warning
⨉ Avoid excessive straightening—it weakens the hair.
⨉ No direct heat on tape bonds or weft seams—it shortens their lifespan.
⨉ Don't use straightener on wet hair.
Gym, Swimming and Outdoors
Sweat and oil control
✔ When working out, tie hair in a high pony or braid to prevent sweat from absorbing into extensions.
Swimming Notice
Chlorine and salt water dry out and fade extensions.
✔ Rinse hair with fresh water before & after swimming.
✔ Apply a leave-in conditioner before swimming to create a protective barrier.
✔ Wear a braid or bun to minimize exposure.
💡 Luxury tip: If you swim often, use a deep hydration mask weekly to restore moisture.

Storage: Keep them Pristine
Clip-Ins: Store in a protective extension bag or silk-lined box.
Tape-Ins & Wefts: Keep hair bundled neatly when not in use.
💡 Luxury tip: A dedicated storage bag prevents dust, tangles, and fading.
