Have you recently had hair extensions added by a hair extension technician? If yes, it is really important that you maintain your extensions. Please refer to this previous post I provided which has heaps of info on getting the most out of your hair.
One additional point I’d like to make is follow up maintenance. You really should go back to the extension technician about 2-3 weeks after having them added. This will allow your hair to be checked to make sure everything is in order. It will also give you a chance to ask any questions which you’re more than likely going to have. So if you recently added the extensions, why not book in an appointment now? Don’t just leave the extensions for 3-6 months, by that time if you’re doing something wrong it will be too late.
One other quick side point. Check with your hair extension technician what the costs are (if any) for additional check ups. In some cases, the costs are really high and you may not have any alternative but to pay up. This is especially important for those girls who live in small towns which may only have one hair extension technician.

Hair extensions have been known to occasionally cause hair damage. In a previous post I discussed a possible cause of hair loss when using hair extensions which is traction alopecia. Although this isn’t common, for those that it effects, it is hugely traumatic. So what can you do once the extensions have been removed to restore your hair as quickly as possible? You need to enlist the help of a quality shampoo and conditioner scientifically designed to stimulate hair growth.
