Protect Your Investment, Maintain Your Glow
Luxury extensions are an investment in your confidence. Because they do not receive the natural oils from your scalp, they require specific care to stay soft, shiny, and tangle-free. Follow this professional guide to ensure your Pao Hair Extensions remain flawless for months to come.
The secret to longevity is moisture. Using the wrong products can strip the hair of its natural luster.
Sulfate-Free Only: Always use professional-grade, sulfate-free, and paraben-free shampoos and conditioners.
Avoid the Roots: Apply conditioner and masks from the mid-lengths to the ends only. Never apply oily products directly to the bonds (tapes, keratin, or wefts) to prevent slipping.
Frequency: We recommend washing your hair no more than 2 to 3 times a week to preserve the hair’s natural cuticle.
Incorrect brushing is the leading cause of shedding and matting.
The Right Tool: Use a specialized extension brush or a soft boar bristle brush.
Bottom-Up Method: Always start detangling from the ends and gently work your way up to the roots.
Support the Bond: Hold the top of your extensions with one hand while brushing with the other to minimize tension on your natural hair.
Your extensions are 100% human hair, meaning they can be styled just like your own, but heat management is crucial.
Heat Protectant: Never use a flat iron or curling wand without applying a high-quality heat protectant first.
Temperature Control: Keep your styling tools at or below 180°C (350°F). High heat can permanently dehydrate the hair fibers.
Air Dry First: Let your hair air dry about 80% before finishing with a blow dryer to reduce heat exposure.
Mechanical friction is your extensions’ enemy.
The Silk Secret: We highly recommend sleeping on a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction and prevent frizz.
Never Sleep Wet: Sleeping with damp hair causes severe matting. Ensure your hair is 100% dry before going to bed.
The Sleep Braid: Secure your hair in a loose braid or a low ponytail before sleeping or exercising to keep the strands aligned.
To seal the moisture and achieve a mirror-like shine, apply 1 or 2 drops of our Pao Organic Hair Oil to the ends daily. This prevents split ends and keeps the hair feeling silky between washes.
Pro Tip:
Treat your extensions with the same love you give your natural hair.
Regular maintenance appointments at the salon are essential to keep the installation safe and seamless.
