How to Care Clip in Hair Extensions ?
Why Do You Need Care Clip in Hair Extensions ?
With the right care, your LaaVoo clip-in hair extensions can last 3–6 months (even a year or more)! The key? Gentle handling and smart routines. Here’s how to keep them looking fresh:
1. First, Remove Them Gently
Before washing, carefully unclip the extensions from your natural hair. Take your time to avoid tugging—this protects both the extensions and your real hair.
2. Brush Thoroughly
Before Getting Wet!
Tangles are public enemy #1. Use a wide-tooth comb, soft bristle brush, or loop brush (designed to prevent snags) and start brushing from the ends, working your way up. This minimizes breakage when washing.
Once brushed, stack the wefts neatly (like when you first got them) to avoid tangling during cleaning.
3. Prep a Clean Sink
Fill a clean sink with lukewarm water (not too hot, not too cold). Add 2–3 pumps of alcohol-free, sulfate-free shampoo (great for preserving color!) and swirl to mix.
4. Shampoo Each Weft
Wash one weft at a time (or bundle gently with an elastic if short on time) to avoid tangles. Hold the weft at the top, submerge it, and gently work the shampoo through with light strokes—no vigorous rubbing!
- For buildup: Try Charcoal Detox Shampoo (deep clean without stripping oils).
- For blondes: Use purple shampoo (like Balancing Purple Shampoo) to fight brassiness.
Rinse after 3 – 5 minutes and set aside on a towel. Repeat for all wefts.
5. Condition
And Maybe Skip Shampoo Sometimes!
Apply a moisturizing, sulfate-free conditioner before or after shampoo—you can even “co-wash” (skip shampoo, just use conditioner) for extra gentleness. Massage into each weft from top to bottom, leave for 5 – 10 minutes, then rinse.
LaaVoo’s High-Gloss Smoothing Conditioner is a winner here — adds shine, detangles, and uses natural ingredients like baobab oil.
6. Add a Deep Treatment
Optional, But Worth It!
For softness and moisture, slather on a hair mask and work it through each weft. Bundle, coil gently, and cover with a shower cap—leave overnight for maximum nourishment.
7. Rinse Thoroughly
In the morning, rinse each weft until no conditioner residue remains (that “slippery” feeling means leftover product, which causes greasiness). Finish with a quick cold water rinse to seal cuticles and boost shine.
8. Air Dry Smartly
Squeeze out excess water (don’t rub with a towel—this causes damage!). Lay wefts flat on a microfiber towel to air dry (it absorbs water faster and reduces tangles). For extra smoothness, add a drop of hair oil while damp.
If you must blow-dry : Use a heat protectant , set to cool, and dry from root to tip—only brush when 90% dry.
9. Brush Again Once Dry
Once fully dry, gently brush each weft from bottom to top with your loop brush. Now they’re ready to clip back in!
Pro Storage Tips
Keep extensions in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Store them in their original packaging or a LaaVoo dust bag to prevent tangling—never toss them with other hair tools!
