How to Maintain and Refresh Your Curly Hair

Deep Wave is a great texture for vacations and the summer because it can be worn wet or dry and still look beautiful. Due to the coily texture, some find it a little harder to maintain. Well, here is the answer to all your questions on maintaining your deep wave extensions and wigs.

Some of us like the look of the deep wave hair when it is wet, therefore, we add products to give that look even when it dries. This is a very popular technique but make sure you wash your extensions regularly because when product is piled on the hair it causes the extensions to become heavy and it will begin to tangle. So, if your deep wave extensions are starting to tangle a lot it’s probably time for a wash

Washing Deep Wave Hair

Washing your deep wave extensions properly is also very important for maintaining your hair. Before washing make sure you use a detangling brush to minimize tangling. This will allow you to wash your extensions without tearing them. Anytime you are combing or brushing your extensions it is important to start from the ends and work your way up to prevent damage.

Wash the extensions with a conditioner by rubbing the conditioner down the extensions and running your fingers through the hair. Leave in for approximately 10 minutes then rinse. Rinsing your hair thoroughly is very important to get rid of all products and build up that will result in tangling. For this process, you will continue to work in a downward motion. Allow the water to run down your extensions as you guide the water with your fingers. If the deep wave hair extensions are not flowing through your fingers easily, you will need to condition them again.

DO NOT USE HOT WATER TO WASH YOUR EXTENSIONS BECAUSE IT WILL DAMAGE THE CUTICLES.
