To rid your extensions of knots, it's definitely worth taking a look at the products you are using. Dry hair = more tangles. Like your natural hair, the better the health, the better the condition! To keep your clip ins looking and feeling smooth and silky, we recommend applying deep conditioning treatments packed with plenty of moisture to hydrate the hair.
On a similar note, opt for a shampoo and conditioner free of sulfates when washing your extensions, as ingredients like alcohol and sulfates are known to dry out hair extensions.
As hair extensions lack the oils your natural hair produces, products such as nourishing hair masques and oils will keep your extensions free of tangles! Better yet, indulging the hair in hydrating products will leave your locks soft, and silky smooth.
