The Ultimate Guide to Maintaining Your Raw Hair Extensions

The Ultimate Guide to Maintaining Your Raw Hair Extensions

Investing in 100% raw, unprocessed hair is a game-changer, but proper care is essential to keep your bundles looking flawless. Here’s how to maintain your raw hair extensions for long-lasting quality and effortless beauty.

1. Wash & Condition Regularly

Co-wash your raw hair extensions before installation and every two weeks using a sulfate-free, moisturizing conditioner. Always wash in a downward motion to prevent tangling.

2. Hydrate & Moisturize

Raw hair doesn’t receive natural oils from the scalp, so keeping it hydrated is key. Use lightweight oils like argan or coconut oil to maintain softness and shine.

3. Minimize Heat Damage

While our bundles can handle heat styling, always use a heat protectant to prevent dryness and breakage. Opt for low-heat settings to preserve the natural texture.

4. Avoid Cutting the Wefts

To reduce shedding, avoid cutting the wefts. If necessary, seal the wefts with a high-quality weft sealant.

5. Protect at Night

Wrap your hair in a silk or satin scarf or sleep on a satin pillowcase to prevent tangling and friction damage.

6. Gentle Detangling

Use a wide-tooth comb or paddle brush, starting from the ends and working your way up. Always detangle while the hair is damp and conditioned.

With proper care, MK’s Hair Bar’s raw hair extensions will maintain their luxurious look and feel, giving you flawless hair day after day.
