Hair
extensions come in two types: first is the synthetic type which is made
of either Kanekalon or Toyokalon. Synthetic hair extensions are best
for extensive hair salon styling like curling. The other type of hair
extensions commonly used by women in Tampa is the Remy hair extensions
which is also known as the human hair. This is a more natural type of
hair extensions that lasts longer with proper care.
Knowing the Basics
Let’s
start with the basics! Shampooing is the number one cause of damage in
hair extensions. Some hair salons recommend certain types of shampoo
that one can use. However, some clients tend to cut costs by settling
for cheaper brands that can turn out to be knock offs or ineffective.
Note
this important tip: It is always best to spend on maintenance rather
spending them on repairs. Never use a Volumizing shampoo especially for
synthetic hair extensions for this will maximize the strands and may
cause tangles. Dry your hair extensions just like how you dry your
natural hair.
If hair color is an
issue for your hair extensions, it is best to plan ahead. Have your
natural hair colored and let hair salons take care of the matching; in
case your roots need a retouch, it is safest to go to your hair salon
and have them done.
Professional Tips
Feel
free to style your hair extensions in whatever style you want such as
buns, braids and ponytails as you would normally. As the summer season
approaches in Tampa, this means more time for beach and pool parties.
Never be afraid to go for a dip but make sure to wear a swim cap made of
latex. Before putting them on, carefully comb your hair extensions
working on the roots to the tips and braiding them to ensure that the
strands are tucked to avoid tangling inside the cap. As soon as you get
out of the water, wash your hair extensions to remove damaging chemicals
that may have sucked up your cap.
When
things go wrong, never be too aggressive in getting the hair extensions
off your head. Instead, go to your favorite hair salon and have them
fixed. It is always the best option to ask for professional help.
