Hair Extension Maintenance


Essential Care Points for Lemani Hair & Extensions:


We only recommend the products that are tried and tested by our team at Lemani hair and Extensions. To ensure  longevity of your Hair Extensions we recommended only extension safe products free from protein and high alcohol content. Check with your Lemani stylist before using any products that have not been recommended by our team. For Best Care follow our strict care instructions. 


Exercise caution with heat styling; limit temperatures to 170 degrees for all extensions under 24 inches. For 26 inch and 30 inch limit heat styling to 150 degrees and restrict usage to once a week to prevent excessive drying. Use a low alcohol thermal protection spray or cream al all times. 


Prioritise nighttime care by sleeping on a silk pillow or wearing a silk bonnet to reduce friction. Always secure your hair with a silk hair tie to prevent tangling and matting.


After a new installation or move-up, refrain from putting your hair up immediately; allow a few days to prevent friction and pulling.


Brush your hair daily with a Lemani hair extension brush ensuring hands go through the tracks to prevent matting and maintain the integrity of your extensions.


Congratulations on your stunning new hair extensions from Lemani Hair & Extensions! We’ve meticulously colour-matched and worked our magic to ensure they perfectly complement your natural hair. However, just like your own hair, these extensions require regular maintenance to keep them looking fabulous. Here are some foolproof aftercare instructions to preserve the beauty of your extensions:



1. Maintenance Colours/Toners:

  • Hair extensions, especially blonde ones, may experience fading or brassiness due to heat styling, washing, and sunlight exposure.
  • Schedule maintenance colours/toners every 6-8 weeks to combat fading and maintain the perfect colour match.
  • Use recommended home care products to prolong the vibrancy of your extensions.



2. Swimming Precautions:

  • Avoid pools, spas, and the beach, but if you must, tie your hair up to keep it dry.
  • If you do however end up exposed to water, wash your hair immediately, apply a treatment, and gently brush out any matting.
  • NEVER go to bed with wet hair.



3. Sunscreen Awareness:

  • Be cautious with sunscreen to prevent extensions from turning pink.
  • Watch for signs such as orange-pink blotchiness where your hair passes through your hands or at the ends touching your back.



4. Tanning Products and Makeup:

  • Tanning products and makeup can stain lighter-coloured extensions, so handle them with care.



5. Heat Styling Guidelines:

  • Use heat tools with caution and always apply an extension-safe heat protectant (e.g., Moroccanoil Perfect Defence).
  • Limit heat to 170 degrees to avoid damage.
  • Look out for signs of heat damage, including white spots, excessively dry hair, split ends, and matting.



6. Brushing Techniques:

  • Brush your hair every day using a soft bristle brush between the rows and at the nape to prevent tangling.
  • Be gentle to maintain the integrity of the extensions.



7. Nighttime Care:

  • Put your hair up in a high pony or a low plait at night to prevent friction against the pillow.
  • Sleep on a silk pillowcase for added protection.



8. Sunglasses and Styling:

  • Avoid sunglasses causing the rows to lift by handling them carefully.
  • Don’t pull your hair up too tightly, as it can cause rows to drop or slip.



9. Post-Extension Care:

  • Wait a few days before putting your hair up high after getting fresh extensions to avoid friction and pulling.
