Raw Hair Extensions Aftercare: The Ultimate Guide to Keeping Your Hair on Point
Your Sevyn Extensions are premium, ethically-sourced raw hair, and we know you want to keep them looking absolutely flawless—always. Here’s how to care for your extensions like the modern woman you are, because we believe great hair is non-negotiable.
Step 1: Wash It Right
Whether you’re rocking your extensions straight, curly, or styled to perfection, washing them properly is key to preserving their texture, shine, and longevity. Trust us, the right shampoo and conditioner combo makes all the difference. We recommend:
1. Olaplex No.4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo & No.5 Conditioner
• This dynamic duo repairs and strengthens your hair, keeping it hydrated and silky smooth. Think of it as an intense spa treatment for your hair, but for everyday use.
2. Pureology Hydrate Shampoo & Conditioner
• Treat your extensions to this sulfate-free pair, packed with ultra-hydrating ingredients that leave your hair feeling luxurious. Bonus: it smells so good.
3. Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Shampoo & Lait Vital Conditioner
• Lightweight and silky, this combo enhances shine and softness without weighing down your extensions. Ideal for keeping things fresh and bouncy!
Step 2: How to Wash Like a Pro
1. Before jumping into the shower, gently brush your extensions with a wide-tooth comb to get rid of any tangles.
2. Wash your hair in lukewarm water. Apply shampoo, working it in gently from roots to ends. No scrubbing, no aggression—just love.
3. Rinse thoroughly, then follow up with conditioner, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends.
4. Rinse again with cool water to seal the cuticle and enhance shine.
5. Gently towel-dry your extensions with a microfiber towel.
Step 3: Treat Your Hair Right with Styling
• Keep it light and fabulous with heat protectants. Whether you’re curling, straightening, or blow-drying, always shield your extensions from high heat.
• Keep the heat low and slow—your extensions will thank you. High temperatures can alter the texture and appearance, and we’re not about that life.
• For a polished finish, opt for lightweight styling products that won’t weigh the hair down or leave it feeling greasy.
Step 4: Drying Tips for the Best Finish
• Air-drying is the ultimate way to keep your extensions looking fresh, but if you need to speed up the process, use a blow-dryer with a diffuser on the lowest heat setting.
• Don’t rub or wring your extensions when wet. Instead, gently blot them with a towel. No harsh moves here.
Step 5: Storing Your Extensions Like a Boss
When you’re not wearing your extensions, keep them stored in a silk or satin bag to prevent tangling and friction. If you want to keep them looking fresh, make sure they’re free of any moisture before storing.
Bonus Tip: Weekly TLC
If you’re feeling extra, give your extensions some TLC once a week. A deep conditioning mask will go a long way in keeping your hair hydrated, shiny, and so soft. Try a nourishing mask like Olaplex No.8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask or Pureology Hydrate Superfood Treatment Mask for that extra burst of love.
With the right aftercare, your Sevyn Extensions will stay as flawless as ever, keeping you looking like the ultimate modern woman you are. Follow these steps, and you’ll have no problem keeping your hair looking chic and on point every single day.
