First, it’s important to note that tangling happens much more often with synthetic hair. High-quality natural hair extensions significantly reduce the risk of tangling and matting. These strands are smoother, silkier, more elastic, less porous, and easier to comb—especially when properly cared for.

• Never wash your hair while leaning over the bathtub with your head down. Always wash it in an upright position.
• Wet the hair first, then gently apply the shampoo. Do not scrub or use circular motions—this can cause tangles.
• Instead, gently massage the scalp and let the foam flow down the lengths of your hair.
• Apply conditioner using a wide-tooth comb, starting mid-length down to the ends. (Do not use a comb to apply shampoo—this could damage the tape or bonds near the scalp.)

After washing, always detangle the hair gently but thoroughly. Use only a special brush made for extensions—preferably one with a mix of natural boar bristles and soft nylon fibers. These brushes help smooth the hair, reduce static, and add shine without causing tangling between natural hair and extensions.
