How to Care for Brazilian Body Wave
Introduction
Brazilian body wave is a popular type of hair extension that is known for its natural-looking, luxurious appearance. However, in order to keep your Brazilian body wave looking its best, it is important to care for it properly. Here are some tips on how to do just that:
Washing
- Wash your Brazilian body wave hair extensions as needed, but no more than once or twice a week. Over-washing can strip the hair of its natural oils, which can make it dry and brittle.
- Use a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to wash your hair extensions. Sulfates are harsh detergents that can strip the hair of its natural oils.
- Be sure to rinse your hair extensions thoroughly after washing to remove any shampoo or conditioner residue.
Conditioning
- Condition your Brazilian body wave hair extensions after every wash. Conditioner helps to keep the hair soft and manageable.
- You can use a leave-in conditioner or a deep conditioner, depending on the condition of your hair.
- Be sure to follow the directions on the conditioner bottle, and do not over-condition your hair, as this can make it heavy and greasy.
Styling
- When styling your Brazilian body wave hair extensions, use a heat protectant spray to protect the hair from heat damage.
- Avoid using hot tools on your hair extensions on a high heat setting.
- If you must use a hot tool on your hair extensions, be sure to move it quickly through the hair to avoid burning it.
- You can use a wide-toothed comb or a detangling brush to brush your hair extensions.
- Avoid brushing your hair extensions when they are wet, as this can cause them to break.
Sleeping
- When you go to bed, tie your Brazilian body wave hair extensions up in a loose ponytail or braid to prevent them from tangling.
- You can also sleep on a satin pillowcase to help reduce friction and tangling.
Other Tips
- Get regular trims to remove any split ends.
- Avoid using harsh chemicals on your hair extensions, such as chlorine or bleach.
- Store your hair extensions in a cool, dry place when you are not wearing them.
Conclusion
By following these tips, you can keep your Brazilian body wave hair extensions looking their best for longer. With proper care, your hair extensions can last for many months, giving you a beautiful, natural-looking head of hair.
