The washing routine: Maintaining tape hair extensions

The most important thing about the upkeep of high quality tape hair extensions, will always come down to the types of products that are regularly used in the hair. Consider always using sulphate and alcohol free products on the hair as this can cause dryness and perhaps decrease the value of the product. Keep in mind that the aim is to keep the hair looking as natural and healthy as possible. So the amount of heat styling tools and any sort of unhealthy product should always be limited whenever possible. Here at ZALA, we recommend using protein-rich products for the hair. This is to ensure they are always in their best possible condition.

 

Sleeping routine

When it comes to wearing and maintaining tape hair extensions, your sleeping routine will always play a vital role in the quality and condition of your tape hair extensions. This is because when you sleep, the friction between the adhesive in your hair can cause unwanted an excessive tangles and knotting. Consider sleeping with your hair braided or perhaps loosely plaited all while being completely dry. This will keep the hair straight and under control. Leaving no room for flyaway's or any potential tangles. It would also be a good idea to invest in a silk or satin slip over your pillow for the ultimate, soft glossy locks as you wake in the mornings.

 

Brushing routine

It is quite easy to keep good care in maintaining tape hair extensionss just by regularly brushing your hair.  We highly recommend for all our customers, (especially tape) that brushing your hair with a soft-bristled or loop brush will keep them groomed and well maintained. This separates any loose hairs from the full set and keeps your tape hair extensions looking healthier and fuller. Our ZALA loop brushes can be purchased on our hair extension accessories page for a low price of only $9.95 AUD. To purchase a loop brush, please click here.

 

General maintenance

Here at ZALA, we recommend for a general maintenance check (maybe even tapes to be re-applied) every 8-10 weeks. This is because the tapes can grow with the natural hair and will need to be moved back closer to the scalp. This will keep your tape hair extensions looking healthy and nourished. Please also avoid any contact with the adhesive when using any treatment products including any natural oils or conditioners. The aim is to keep the adhesive nice and fresh, and as long-lasting as possible. This is also very important when maintaining tape hair extensions.
