Composing the Perfect Hair Care Routine

Posted by Donna Bella on April 07, 2016

You’d think that something as commonplace as hair would be easier to maintain. But the reality is, despite generations of (sometimes questionable) hand-me-down beauty insights inherited from our ancestors—like liberally applying oil to your scalp or brushing your hair 100 strokes per day—it often takes years upon years of personal trial and error to master our own hair. And what’s more? The issue can get even more complex with hair extensions in place. So how should you be taking care of your precious mane? We’re here to help you figure it out. Step 1: Parse out your hair type. There...

Applying Heat to Your Hair Extensions Properly

Posted by Donna Bella on November 14, 2014

Most hair extension wearers will opt for human remy hair because it can be styled just like natural hair. Synthetic hair extensions don’t do too well with heat, therefore they should never be styled with a heating tool. Because remy hair is made out of human hair, it has more flexibility to be styled and can take the heat when it comes to using styling tools. Keep in mind that constant styling with a heating tool isn’t too healthy for your natural hair, either, let alone your hair extensions. If you can give them a break from the blow dryer,...

Stylist Nightmares: Touch-Up Trauma

Posted by Donna Bella on April 11, 2014

You may hear us harping on it all the time, but it never gets any less important: hair extensions need to be regularly maintained! This includes regular touch-ups (moving the extensions closer to the scalp to account for growth), brushing to eliminate tangling and matting and taking special care to avoid damaging activities to your extensions (like bleaching, or exposing them to chlorinated water). What happens though, when clients forgo these regular maintenance tips and just let their extensions grow willy-nilly? Here’s our next stylist nightmare for this week. Read on. One client came in with fusion extensions. She’d had...

Caring for Your Extensions on Your Tropical Vacation

Posted by Donna Bella on November 15, 2013

As the weather gets increasingly more frightful, many seek the sun and sand of a tropical vacation to soften those debilitating winter blues. A question we got often here at Donna Bella is how well extensions, particularly Tape-In extensions, hold up to the beach-side rigors of a vacation (sand, sun, salt water...all that jazz) and how best to maintain them. The truth is, tropical vacations do come with their own share of hair extensions challenges, but with just a little bit of simple care and maintenance, you can soak up some rays and avoid wrecking your hair, no matter what...
