Care

It behaves like your own hair, because it is.

Raw hair with an intact cuticle responds the way growing hair responds. It takes a curl, releases it, and drinks conditioner. It also dries out if you treat it like synthetic. These are the only rules that matter.

Washing

Use a sulphate-free shampoo. Sulphates strip the cuticle, which is the whole reason this hair lasts.
Wash in cool or lukewarm water, never hot.
Work downward from weft to tip. Do not pile the hair on top of your head and scrub — that is what causes matting at the root.
Condition every wash. Deep condition every third.

Drying

Press water out with a towel rather than rubbing.
Air dry where you can. For wavy and curly textures, scrunch and leave alone.
Never sleep on it wet.

Heat

Always use a heat protectant.
Keep irons under 180°C / 350°F. This hair does not need more, and more will cost you months of life.

Colour

Our natural dark shade can be safely lifted to #613. We recommend a professional colourist — the hair takes colour readily, which means it also over-processes readily in inexperienced hands.

Storage

Braid loosely or lay flat in the bag it arrived in. Never store damp.
