Care & Maintenance Tips for Human Hair Extensions: Keep Your Locks Luxurious

Picture-Perfect Hair, Every Day

Imagine running your fingers through silky, voluminous hair that turns heads wherever you go. Human hair extensions give you the freedom to transform your look instantly, adding length, volume, and a sense of effortless glamour. But to enjoy hair that stays soft, shiny, and tangle-free, proper care is essential. At Hair Niche by Shelly, we provide 100% natural human hair extensions with customizable options to ensure every strand blends seamlessly with your hair colour, giving you a flawless, natural finish. 

Why Proper Care Matters

Extensions are more than just strands; they are an investment in your confidence and style. Without the right care, tangling, dryness, or premature wear can disrupt the flawless look you worked so hard to achieve. By incorporating simple, consistent care practices, your hair will stay healthy, vibrant, and stunning for longer. 

Gentle Washing & Conditioning 

• Sulphate-Free Shampoos: Use gentle, sulphate-free shampoos to clean your extensions without stripping away natural oils. 

• Focus on Mid-Lengths to Ends: Concentrate conditioner on the mid-lengths and tips to avoid weighing down the roots. 

• Lukewarm Water: Avoid hot water, which can damage hair cuticles and reduce shine. 

Tangle-Free Styling 

• Wide-Tooth Comb or Extension Brush: Detangle carefully, starting from the ends and moving upward to prevent pulling and breakage. 

• Minimal Tugging: Gentle brushing ensures the bonds or clips remain intact while keeping your hair smooth. 

• Sectioned Styling: Work in small sections when styling or combing to maintain full control and avoid tangles. 

Smart Heat & Styling Practices 

• Heat Protectants: Always apply a protective spray before using curling irons, straighteners, or blow dryers. 

• Moderate Temperatures: High heat can compromise hair integrity, so stick to medium settings. 

• Low-Strain Styles: Opt for styles that don’t tug excessively, like loose waves, gentle curls, or soft updos. 

Proper Storage & Overnight Care 

• Silk or Satin Storage: Keep your extensions in silk or satin bags to reduce friction and frizz. 

• Braiding Before Sleep: Never sleep with wet hair; braid or wrap extensions loosely to protect the strands overnight. 

• Avoid Tangling: Detangling before storage or bedtime ensures smooth, ready-to-wear extensions each day.
