Hair extension procedures are very popular today among women of different age groups, because everyone wants to look great no matter what. This procedure gives magnificent hair - thick, gorgeous hair, which not everyone can grow on their own, or just do not want to spend many months on it. As a consequence, there are many hair extension masters who use different techniques.
Types of hair extensions:

- Spanish, or cold extension. Additional strands are glued with a special glue without thermal influence. This technique is not recommended for dark-haired women.
- Italian, or hot hair extensions. The strands are fixed with keratin, which visibly hides the difference between the native and attached hair. There are no contraindications.
- English. Fixation of the strands by means of hot resin. This type has disadvantages: the possibility of scalp burn, low aesthetic effect - close up noticeable places of hair sticking.
- Japanese. Own strands are threaded into metal or metal-ceramic beads. The bundle of attached hair is fixed in the clip of the bead. There are no contraindications.
- Afro extension. Braiding of extra strands into braids, creating volume and desired length. Afro extension has no significant disadvantages.
The most popular among all kinds of hair extensions is hot extensions (capsule extensions). And the reasons why capsule hair extensions are preferred are as follows:
- The method is the most convenient in implementation, because it gives an opportunity to grow absolutely any strands;
- Hair can be worn for up to 4 months after capsule extensions with proper care.
Hair extensions are easy to care for, but you need detailed instructions to avoid unfortunate mistakes. If you do it right, you'll keep your hair looking beautiful and well-groomed for months to come.
Hair care after hair extensions: tips
- The strands can be washed with any care products, but each wash must be appropriately gentle. It is recommended to wash your hair in an upright position, without turning it upside down.
- Masks should be applied to strengthen and nourish the hair extensions. The masks are applied on the ends and the hair mass below the capsules.
- Do not go to bed with a wet head. Therefore, before going to bed, the head should be well dried, gathered strands in a loose ponytail or braided.
- Dry your head at low temperatures, do not hold your hair dryer close to the capsules if you use warm air, try not to direct it towards the roots.
- Comb the hair slightly dried with a special brush. Start combing from the ends, gently gathering them in a bundle in your hand. Be sure to comb through the places where capsules are attached to hair to prevent hair tangling in the root zone. Comb at least 2-3 times a day.
How to choose a comb?
- Material of the teeth. The material of the comb and brush should be soft. Hard teeth can severely damage the structure of hair. Products made of silicone, natural bristles are suitable. Devices made of such materials have a gentle effect on the hair, without traumatizing or damaging the hair.
- A hair brush for hair extensions should be without massage balls on the teeth. This is one of the main requirements for a brush. The massage balls cling to the capsules and pull out the artificial strands.
- To take good care of "donor" curls you need to buy a brush with several rows of teeth and a fine comb with one row of teeth.
- Double bristles. A professional, high-quality brush for the hair extensions has double bristles. In this case, the bristles can be artificial (but necessarily soft), natural or mixed. Large teeth of such a device gently comb the strands, small - smooth them, give a natural shine.
