While Wearing Your Hair major tangles or matting may occur: THE PROBLEM: This is what looks like a very large rats nest at your scalp involving multiple (more than 3-4 strands) at the area of your attachment on your scalp. It usually involves shed hairs as well as your natural hair that has been left un-bonded during application. THE CAUSE: Major matting is almost always caused by sleeping with wet or damp hair but can also happen over a long period of time if you are not maintaining your strand by strand hair extension install. THE SOLUTION: Remember that the area around the roots is the last to dry. It is always best to wash during the day when your hair has many hours to fully dry at the root. With major strand tangling or matting, it is best to remove, detangle the hairs, remove the shed hairs, flat iron the hair and replace the extension. If your hair seems to be tangling in the area on which you sleep, i.e., one particular side of the head, consider purchasing a satin pillowcase. It’s a great idea to run your fingers through your hair, around the bonds, as best as possible to detangle the shed hair from root hairs. It is impossible to remove the shed hairs as they are typically stuck in the bonds, but you can keep them from getting messy by separating them every few days, or so, as your hair grows out. THE RESULT: You will save your hair along with your extension hair. By fixing or maintaining tangles you will keep larger, more time-consuming tangles from occurring. |
