Hair Care by Type
Tiwa (Coily)
Taking proper care of coily hair extensions is essential to maintain their quality and ensure their longevity. Here are some hair care suggestions specifically for coily hair extensions:
- Detangling: Use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to gently detangle the hair extensions starting from the ends and working your way up. Avoid harsh brushing or aggressive combing to prevent damage and minimise shedding.
- Washing: Wash the coily hair extensions with a moisturising shampoo. Rinse thoroughly and follow up with a moisturizing conditioner, focusing on the mid-lengths to ends. Avoid excessive rubbing or tangling during the washing process. We recommend the Redken All Soft Shampoo or Joico Moisture Recovery Shampoo.
- Conditioning: Regularly deep condition the coily hair extensions to keep them moisturized and prevent dryness. Apply a generous amount of conditioner and use a wide-tooth comb to distribute it evenly. Leave the conditioner on for the recommended time, then rinse thoroughly with cool water. We recommend the Redken All Soft Conditioner or Joico Moisture Recovery Conditioner
- Moisturizing: Coily hair tends to be naturally dry, so it's crucial to keep the extensions hydrated. To revitalise the curls, we recommend spritzing water on the hair and applying a curl enhancing gel.
- Styling: When styling coily hair extensions, use minimal heat to avoid damage. Opt for heatless styling methods like twist-outs to create defined curls without applying excessive heat. If you do use heat, apply a heat protectant spray and use low to medium heat settings.
- Nighttime Care: Protect the coily hair extensions while you sleep by wrapping them in a satin or silk scarf or using a satin or silk pillowcase. This helps reduce friction and prevents the hair from drying out or becoming tangled.

Temilola (Voluminous Blow Out)
Taking proper care of hair extensions is essential to maintaining their quality and ensure their longevity. Here are some hair care suggestions specifically for voluminous blown-out hair extensions:
- Detangling: Prior to washing or styling, gently detangle the hair extensions using a wide-tooth comb or your fingers. Start from the ends and work your way up to the roots to minimise breakage and tangling. Avoid excessive pulling or harsh brushing.
- Washing: Use a moisturising shampoo and conditioner. Avoid rubbing or rough handling during the washing process. We recommend the Redken All Soft Shampoo or Joico Moisture Recovery Shampoo.
- Conditioning: Deep condition the extensions regularly to keep them moisturized and minimize frizz. Apply a generous amount of conditioner and distribute it evenly through the hair using a wide-tooth comb. Leave the conditioner on for the recommended time before rinsing thoroughly with cool water. We recommend the Redken All Soft Conditioner or Joico Moisture Recovery Conditioner.
- Moisturizing: Our hair thrives off minimal to no products in order to not weigh it down. But if you're looking to add extra shine apply a dime size amount of lightweight serum, focusing on the ends and areas prone to dryness. We recommend the Garnier Sleek and Shine.
- Heat Styling: The hair extensions can be heat styled to achieve different looks. However, it's important to use a heat protectant spray before applying heat and to use low to medium heat settings to prevent damage. Avoid excessive heat exposure to maintain the integrity of the hair.
- Nighttime Care: Protect the hair extensions while you sleep by wrapping them in a satin or silk scarf or using a satin or silk pillowcase. This helps minimize friction, reduce tangling, and maintain the smoothness of the hair.
