After Care:
Do NOT wash hair for at least 24 - 48 hours to allow your newly applied extensions to adhere completely.
Brushing:
Use a BELLAMI boar bristle brush daily to remove any knots or tangles.
Gather the hair into a ponytail and securely hold close to the scalp. Begin brushing from the ends, carefully working your way up toward the scalp.
Brushing your hair before it gets wet will keep it from tangling while washing.
To ensure bonds stay separated the duration of wear, gently brush at the scalp and between rows. Gently pull extensions apart with your fingers to keep natural shed from tangling together
Washing:
Brush extensions thoroughly before washing to remove any tangles.
Now that you have more hair, you can divide the hair into two sections and shampoo or create multiple ponytails and go section-by-section.
Shampoo:
Use a sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoo.
Beginning at the top of the head, massage shampoo into the hair, carefully making your way towards the nape. Do not use a circular motion or flip your head upside down to avoid tangles.
Part hair and rinse thoroughly. If you used the ponytail method to wash your hair, rinse one section at a time. Follow up with a final rinse.
Condition:
Use a hydrating conditioner.
Apply conditioner from mid-shaft down to the tips of your hair and leave on for 2-3 minutes. NOTE: Adding conditioner at or near the point of attachment may lead to tapes sliding out.
Rinse completely.
Drying
Towel or air dry your hair as much as possible before using a blow dryer.
The use of leave-in conditioners, heat protectants, as well as treatment oils from mid-shaft to ends is recommended to protect your extensions.
Using a blow dryer, rough-dry the hair.
Starting at the ends and working your way up toward the scalp, round brush the hair.
Styling Tools
BELLAMI Hair Extensions are safe to use with thermal tools like curling wands, flat irons and blow dryers.
Temperature setting depends on your natural hair. You may use between 270°F - 450°F on your extensions as long as you apply proper heat protectants before styling.
Keep all hot tools away from the point of attachment to ensure extensions do not melt or fuse.
Products
Use professional-grade products recommended by your Stylist to maintain the health of your natural hair and extensions.
Avoid alcohol-based products close to the point of attachment as it may compromise the bonding agent and cause sliding.
Swimming
Before swimming, wet your hair with fresh tap water and apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner to the ends.
Tie in a loose ponytail or braid.
Once you are finished swimming, rinse the extensions with fresh water and spray with leave-in conditioner.
Sleeping
Brush hair gently and loosely braid before sleeping.
Do not go to bed with wet hair as it can cause tangling close to the scalp. If this occurs, schedule an appointment with your Stylist to remove immediately.
Coloring
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COLOR YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS AT HOME. Please consult your certified BELLAMI Stylist for all color services and inquiries.
Sunscreen
Avoid the use of chemical-based sunscreens, as this can discolor the hair. Please use mineral-based sunscreens only.

Q: Why do the same length extensions look different on different guests?
A: The extensions' appearance differs depending on the height of the person and the length of the torso. The taller and longer the torso, the shorter the hair looks. The shorter and more compact the torso, the longer the hair can look.
Q: Why do I lose so much natural hair when I brush or shower?
A: Everyone sheds an average of 50-150 strands per day. You'll notice something unique while wearing extensions, though. Even if you shed more than the average person, you'll see an extreme decrease when wearing extensions. A natural shed is still occurring but remains inside the extension. Once removed, all the shed from weeks prior will be released simultaneously. Don't panic. Though it may look like a lot of hair falling out, it's only your natural shed.
Q: What is considered part of the warranty?
A: The BELLAMI 3-month warranty is effective from the date of purchase and covers any manufacturing defects so long as the hair hasn't been chemically altered in any way. Manufacturing defects include discoloration at an abnormal rate, tangling, matting, excessive shed, etc. If you feel you have defective hair, please contact your BELLAMI Regional Sales Manager or Customer Service for additional support.
