Taking care of your clip-in and ponytail hair extensions should be simple, fun, and leave you feeling fab every time. At It’s Now Long, we’ve got your back with easy tips to keep your hair looking shiny and soft for months.
1. Washing Your Extensions
Unlike natural hair, your clip-in hair extensions don’t need a wash every day. In fact, we recommend washing them every 30 wears, or when you notice product build-up. Keeping them clean and hydrated helps them stay soft and shiny—because who doesn’t love a good hair day? Use sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner to give them a little TLC, and let them air dry for the best results. Self-care = hair care.
2. Styling Your Extensions
Whether you’re in the mood for sleek, straight hair, curls, or those insta-worthy s-waves, you can totally style your 100% Remy human hair extensions however you want. Feel free to use heat tools, but don’t forget that heat protection spray is your best friend! Treat your clip-in extensions or ponytail extensions just like your natural hair and they’ll keep looking as good as new. Style, glow up, and get out there!
3. Colouring Your Extensions
Want to mix it up with a new colour? You do you! While our extensions are made from 100% Remy human hair, if you’re thinking about bleaching them, we recommend chatting with your hairdresser first. Bleach can be a little harsh and may affect the quality of your extensions. For a flawless result, let the pros handle the transformation and keep your extensions as soft and dreamy as they should be.
4. How Long Should My Hair Be?
- Ponytail Extensions: Your hair should be long enough to put in a bun or ponytail. Yes, a low bun counts for the ponytail hair extensions to blend perfectly!
- Clip-in Extensions: For clip-in extensions,having at least 5 to 7 inches of natural hair ensures they blend effortlessly with your real hair, giving you all the length and volume you’re after.
5. Maintaining Your Extensions for the Long Haul
To keep your ponytail or clip-in hair extensions looking their best, handle them with love. When you’re not wearing them, store them in a cool, dry place to avoid tangles and dust build-up. Brushing them regularly with a wide-tooth comb keeps them smooth and shiny. Oh, and keep them away from chlorine or salt water if possible—it’s a haircare faux pas you’ll want to avoid!
Looking after your It’s Now Long hair extensions is as easy as clip-in, glow-up, and go! Wash them when needed, protect them when styling, and store them carefully to keep them fresh and fabulous. With just a little love, your Remy human hair extensions will be your best hair accessory for months to come—total #hairgoals!
