Try not to use heat, I've been wearing extentions years and the pair I have this is my 9th month of having them. Try not to wash them too much once a month as they won't get as dirty as your hair , don't tease/back comb them. Also if you put your hair up put the extensions in upside down.. Ps you will get addicted haha xxx

Don't brush them too much and also put them away safely! Cx

Love hair extensions! I am telling you girl, Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine Condtioner and the Fortifying Condtioner is the best stuff on earth. You barely need to use shampoo at all because that will dry them. Condition condition condtion! Also, buy a "hair loop brush" from a beauty supply. Shouldn't be more than like 4 bucks. Google it if you don't know what it looks like, but this special brush keeps the hair from ripping out the extension weft. :)

Make sure you wash them! Once a week is suitable if you wear them every day or most days. After you wash them, lay them out on a towel on the floor to dry over night. Then spray them with a heat protectant. Brush them often, because they can get tangled easily. When you wash them, use a wide tooth shower comb, to comb them out wet. Then use shampoo & conditioner. Use any heat you want, just don't forget the heat protectant! I love my extensions. <3 if you do all these things, I guarantee you your first set will last you a while. My extensions "life span" is six months, but I've had them for sooo much longer.
