Weave may feel a little tight
So your extensions are in and looking fabulous. Now it’s time for you to take the reins. Firstly, it’s probably going to feel a bit strange. You have more hair which means a bit more weight on your scalp. Weave may feel a little tight, don’t worry this is very normal. Micros and rings are fit a centimetre away from the scalp to ensure they can move without tension. I fit extensions to last but in a very comfortable and safe manner.
The first few days
When you go to bed that evening, you’re going to feel it. Some people don’t feel anything (lucky them) - some people find it pretty uncomfortable. Discomfort isn’t a sign of problem so don’t worry, in a few days you’ll be so used to it you won’t remember life without them,
The science part
Your hair never stops growing so day by day the extensions are loosening, millimetre by millimetre. That’s why it becomes more comfortable as it’s growing. I aim to never put too much tension on natural hair which ensures long lasting and the most comfortable wear for your extensions.
Avoid any tight or high hair styles for the first few days. This is going to add even more tension to your scalp unnecessarily. Keep it in a low pony or loose plait or bun if you need to tie it back.
Maintenance
Make you you’ve booked Maintenance as soon as possible, appointments go quick so if you forget to book and only remember when you’re extensions are too grown out, you’ll have to wait for a cancellation. You are responsible for your own bookings.
