Styling plays a huge role in how long extensions last, and it’s important to teach clients how to do it right.
Here’s a simple guide on how to educate your clients on styling their extensions for longevity.
Before diving into styling, remind your clients that proper care is key. Hair extensions are an investment, and taking care of them will help them last longer. Let them know that everything from brushing to washing affects how long the extensions stay healthy.
Low-Maintenance Hairstyles
Show your clients a few easy, no-heat hairstyles like loose buns or braids that can protect their extensions while still looking good, especially on busy days when they don't have time for heat styling.
Use the Right Tools
Not all tools are safe for extensions.
- Heat Styling: Use tools with adjustable heat settings, keeping it below 180°C (350°F).
- Brushes: Recommend a soft-bristle brush or wide-tooth comb and advise detangling from ends to roots. We would recommend our Luxury Paddle Brush or our Luxury Wide Tooth Comb.
- Heat Protectant: Always use a heat protectant spray before styling.
Consider selling the right products directly to your clients for added convenience.
Heat Styling Do’s and Don’ts
Heat can be tough on extensions, so teach your clients how to use it carefully:
- Use low heat and work slowly.
- Let hair cool before brushing or touching.
- Keep heat tools away from the roots to avoid damaging the attachment.
Night-Time Hair Care
Remind clients that how they treat their extensions overnight matters too.
Suggest these simple habits:
- Tie their hair in a loose braid or ponytail before bed to prevent tangles.
- Use a satin pillowcase to reduce friction and breakage.
For extra protection, a satin hair wrap is also a great option.
Regular Salon Maintenance
Finally, stress the importance of regular salon visits every 6-8 weeks for adjustments and maintenance. Offer a “maintenance package” to encourage them to come back for touch-ups.
By teaching your clients how to care for and style their hair extensions, you’re not only helping them make the most of their investment but also building loyalty and trust. Happy clients will keep coming back—and they’ll spread the word about their experience.
