In the post that we bring you today, we are going to review the 5 external agents typical of summer that most affect hair with extensions. We know that you will not be able to escape from the vast majority of them, unless you take your suitcases and go to a remote destination in Iceland. Our goal is for you to know how to be alert against all these risks.
Whether you have or don't have hair extensions, Abusing the sun is always going to be very bad for your hair.. And in the case of wearing any type of extension system, it will be even more so. Because? Because the hair extension is something “added” to your hair. It is hair that does not grow from your scalp so it does not receive natural nutrients or vitamins.
Therefore, if acute sun exposure occurs, ultraviolet rays will have a very negative effect on your hair with extensions. To do? Sunbathe moderately or protect your head with a nice hat or pamela if you are going for a long walk by the sea.
Sea water is free of chemical pollution, but If the saltpeter is not removed well, it can be a serious problem for the hair extensions.
Salt water can have a drying effect on both natural hair and hair extensions. When salt water comes into contact with your extensions, it can remove moisture, leaving them dry, brittle, and more likely to tangle and break.
You can be calm while you bathe in the sea with your hair extensions, but remember that, after bathing, the salt remains deposited in the hair which can change its texture. Rinse well under the shower with fresh water and problem solved.
Chlorine is another issue. Remember that it is a chemical product that alters the PH, making it more harmful. We don't mean by this that you have to give up cooling off! Just be a little more aware and try not to dive too much, for example. AND after each bath rinse your hair well in the shower and that's it.
You spend the winter clinging to your hair dryer and straightener. Why don't you take advantage of the summer and let them rest a little? The natural hair extensions Air dried they look great! If you still can't live without your shaping tools, engrave these tips on fire: Never use an iron on wet extensions., use a thermal protector and try not to pass the iron more than 3 times over the same section of extensions.
To prevent your hair extensions If they become tangled more than necessary, we advise you two things: first, that you brush the extensions very well several times a day, always starting from the middle of the hair to the ends. Second, that you bet on wear a braid or a ponytail that is not too tight when you are at the beach or in the pool. You will avoid unnecessary tangles.
