It is true that extensions take extra work as you will be taking care of extra hair, but provided that you use the correct products, the maintenance is not too difficult. Being human hair you can continue to style your hair in the same way, you can use your hair straighteners and curling tools, provided you use a heat protectant prior. All clients receive a complete care guide when having hair extensions applied so you can ensure proper maintenance. Here are some of the key points:

• Use salon-quality products provided by the salon
• Never use products containing protein, keratin, and/or sulfates.
• Concentrate shampoo on your natural hair only, not the extensions.
• Apply a deep treatment mask once per week.
• Tie hair in a plait prior to sleeping.
• Use the recommended extension brush to keep your hair tangle-free.
• Return for maintenance on time to ensure no damage is caused to your natural hair.

The short answer to both is absolutely yes, however there are some restrictions.

With regards to the colouring of extensions, they must be taken darker and not lighter. For example if you select an extension colour that is a mid brown and you want to go blonde you will not be able to have them bleached, you could only have them coloured darker with a semi permanent colour.

You can tone and purple shampoo hair extensions.

If you are someone who colours their hair (most of us!) you can absolutely still get hair extensions. Pretty much all colouring can still be done whilst wearing hair extensions. If you are a foiled blonde, the only thing that you may choose to do is instead of having a full head of foils is just have a half head or hairline & part as the extensions will create the lightened coloured throughout the back for you. This means less risk of damage to your own hair through excessive colouring, and more money in your purse- win win!
