Care between appointments starts with gentle handling, clean attachment areas and a routine suited to your scalp and hair. Ask your professional to demonstrate the steps for your fitting.
Detangle without pulling
Before washing, gently work from the ends upward in small sections. Hold the hair above each knot so the pull does not reach the attachment. Use a brush suited to your fitting and avoid dragging it across the rings or weft.
Wash gently and rinse thoroughly
Use lukewarm water and gently clean the scalp and between the rows with your fingertips. Let the hair hang down rather than rubbing it into a pile. Rinse away all product residue. Choose your washing schedule with your professional according to your scalp, activity and product build-up.
Condition the lengths
Apply conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends, away from the attachments. Use richer masks, oils and serums only where and in the amount your professional recommends. A single ingredient claim such as “sulfate-free” does not establish compatibility with Stessia.
Dry the base carefully
Blot rather than rub with a towel. Dry the scalp and weft base fully with moving airflow on a low or medium setting. Make sure the lengths are also dry before sleep or tying the hair up.
Use heat thoughtfully
Use suitable heat protection, limit hot-tool passes and keep straighteners or curling irons away from the attachments. Ask your professional for settings suited to the hair; no universal Stessia temperature limit has been established here.
Ask before corrective treatments
Do not colour or tone the extension hair yourself. Have purple shampoos, strong clarifying products or chemical treatments assessed by your professional first. For a change in colour or feel, ask for advice rather than layering on more treatments.
