IBE® is the most gentle extension method out there. This method ensures even weight distribution of your extensions around your head, preventing stress and tension on any areas. There is no heat, tape, or glue used during installation. With proper at home care you will not experience damage from your extensions. Many clients wear extensions while they work to grow to repair their natural hair.

Your first move-up should happen 7 weeks after your initial install appointment. At this time, we will evaluate your grow-out and determine if you can go longer between maintenance appointments. Most clients get their extensions reinstalled between 8- 10 weeks.

Your extension hair will be the largest cost of your initial investment. Quality hand-tied hair will last on average 8-10 months with proper styling care and the use of recommended professional products.

This investment is one you will be glad you made. Your extension hair is not somewhere you want to cut corners on. It is going to be a part of you the same way your natural hair is day in and day out. If it is not 100% remy human hair you will not be able to use heat or wash and style as usual and you can experience extreme matting or melting if you try to. One of our biggest priorities is ensuring the manufacturer where we get your extension hair from is doing business ethically and honestly. Providing you with only the highest quality extensions.

Although, you will find you don’t need to style or as as often white wearing extensions.

At Home Extension Care Protect Your Investment
-
Wash your hair 1-2 x a week with a sulfate and paraben free professional shampoo. We recommend Goldie Locks.
Do not over wash your hair. Shampooing everyday will shorten the life of your extensions hair.
Before washing you MUST brush out all tangles! Do not brush vigorously at the top of the wefts, you can ruin your extensions and cause tension at your scalp.
If you have multiple rows, cleanse in between all the rows and gently wash. Use conditioner from the mid to ends of your hair. Do not apply conditioner to the scalp area. You can use a wide tooth comb or Wet brush to brush through in the shower but be sure not to pull too vigorously.
Extend time in between full shampoos by doing a partial wash. Section off your own hair at the top above your top row and secure with a clip or scrunchy. Place your extension hair only into a braid or pony so it stays out of the way. Once your hair is out of the way put your head directly under a faucet sink or shower head then shampoo & condition the top hair only and avoid getting the rest of your extension hair wet.. This is a great way to wash more often without washing the extension hair.
-
After washing, gently towel dry the hair. If your hair is dripping with water, you need to continue to towel dry. Do not get in the habit of letting your hair air dry. This can cause swelling at the weft line which can reduce the life of your wefts. Never go to bed with wet extension hai as this can cause matting and tangles. Always apply a leave in conditioner before you start brushing out your hair. Make sure that you are using a thermal protectant prior to applying heat. This will help protect your investment. WE recommend Goldie Locks
You can straighten or curl your hair like normal but don’t forget to apply a thermal protectant before you apply heat! Just like with your natural hair, the less you use thot tools the better. Braiding your hair at night can help make morning styling easier.
Brush your hair multiple times a day and always carry a brush in your purse. This helps avoid tangles and matting. Brush close to the seam of the row but DO NOT brush down into the seam where the wefts are sewn in. This can ruin your hair extensions and they cannot be installed again. Brushing improperly can also cause tension at your scalp and lead to damage of your natural hair.
You can wear your hair in a high pony or bun! This is the huge benefit of IBE Extensions®.
-
Never go to bed with wet hair. Brush your hair before bed and put your hair in a low pony or braid. Using a silk pillowcase is best, cotton can cause frizz and split ends over time. When I see matting it is mostly because you went to bed with your hair damp or wet or you did not properly brush your hair. Spending the extra few minutes every night can extend the life of your extension hair.
-
You can swim with extensions, BUT there are minerals found in some water that can cause discoloration and dry out extension hair.
Ocean water- salt water is extremely drying to hand tied wefts & can cause severe matting if you are not properly prepared. Many of our clients travel to tropical destinations wearing Invisible bead extensions® and carefully take care of them. If you do go in the water. braid your hair tightly and wash your hair when you are finished. We recommend Goldie Locks Serum. This can be applied multiple times a day on wet or dry hair.
Before going in any water like the lake, ocean or pool follow these steps:
Wet and apply a conditioner to your hair and brush it through to saturate the extensions. Then braid it tight or put it in a tight pony or bun.
Brush & wash it immediately after swimming. If you cannot get to a shower at least brush it out and apply Goldie Locks Oil.
SUNSCREEN
Sunscreen, particularly those containing ingredients like avobenzone can turn your extension hair orange or cause extreme dryness. Do no use any sunscreens containing the ingredien. To be safe use Goldie Locks sun screen.
