Daily Hair Care Routine

How careful are you?
Consistency is the name of the game! A little love every day will keep those virgin raw hair extensions looking fresh and absolutely gorgeous.
 
  • Gently Detangle: This involves finger detangling and then using a wide-tooth comb or soft-bristle brush. It's always advisable to begin with the ends and work your way up rather than the top down. That way, you will avoid inflicting unnecessary breakage on your precious hair extensions.
  • Moisturize: Raw hair, alongside your hair extensions, is thirsty for moisture. Just apply a light leave-in conditioner so it continues to drink up the good stuff without getting overly weighed down.
  • Don't over-wash them: Raw hair does not require you to wash it daily like normal hair does. Ideally, you would only need to wash them once or twice a week, depending on how much you apply to the hair.

 

Washing Raw Hair Extensions

Finally, when it's time for the wash day, you have to treat the extensions right.
  • Use Sulfate-Free Shampoo: Harsh shampoos can remove the natural oils from your raw hair. Choose a sulfate-free formula to gently cleanse the hair.
  • Deep Condition Generously: Raw hair is very fond of moisture, so, after every wash, make it a point to deep condition it. Let it sit there for a good 10-15 minutes for maximum hydration.
  • Cool Water Rinse: This will close the cuticle layer and trap all of that moisture to give your hair a smooth, shiny finish.

 

Styling Tips For Raw Hair Extensions

Styling the raw beauty
Raw hair extensions allow you so much versatility when it comes to styling, but heat and chemicals may get the better of you if you don't take proper care.
  • Limit Heat Usage: If you're blow-drying or flat-ironing, make sure to use a heat protectant, which will minimize damage. And keep in mind that less is more when it comes to blow-drying and flat-ironing.
  • Protective Styles: Many protective styles, such as braids or low ponytails, decrease friction and tangles, especially with fast movement activity or while sleeping.
  • Air-Dry Over Blow-Dry: If possible, allow your raw hair extensions to dry in the air after being washed. This will maintain the hair's natural texture while avoiding heat damage.

 

Night-Time Care Routine

Good dreams better hair
Don't forget your extensions when you go to bed! A little nighttime care makes all the difference.
  • Wrap It Up: Sleep in a silk or satin scarf, or better still, a silk pillowcase to reduce friction-which can cause tangles and breakage.
  • Loosen It Up: Do not tie your hair into tight ponytails or buns at night. Instead, just keep it loose in a braid or bun so that it does not tangle up.

 

Long-Term Care and Maintenance

Raw hair extensions can last for as long as a year or more, provided they are taken care of. Keep rotating, and they will be fresh-looking.
  • Storage Matters: When you are not wearing your extensions, put them in a silk or satin bag so that they are not getting dusty or tangled.
  • Reinstall with Care: It truly doesn't matter whether one wears sew-ins or clip-ins; be sure to reinstall them every time with care so as not to get stress on both your natural hair and the extensions.

 

Conclusion

Raw hair extensions are simply a great investment. If you take time out of your busy schedule to take care of them, you can make them last even longer. Using these care tips, you'll keep your extensions soft, shiny, and in great shape for months on end.
