Itip Extensions: How to take care of Itip extensions after you leave the salon.

Itips are individual extensions that need to be moved up every 6 weeks. While you are at home, on vacation, at work, it is your responsibility to give them proper care to make them last! Here are some tips to accomplish this:


  • Brush 2-3 times a day. Hold hair tight near the roots and brush gently. I always include an extension brush at your first install. If you need an additional, they are $10 in the salon. To order a brush online, I recommend the Hairdreams Extensions Brush*.

  • Make sure hair is tangle free before washing.

  • Shampoo and condition 2-3 times a week. You will shampoo* twice, then condition* once. Treatments* every other wash.

  • Towel dry without rubbing back and forth. Brush gently when wet.

  • Always blow dry the extensions! (The tips can disintegrate when left wet. If this happens, then I can no longer put the tip into the bead and I will have to throw it away)

  • Never go to bed with wet hair!!

  • Rough dry to 90% then use a round brush to smooth.

  • Always use heat protectant.

  • Straighten, Curl and style as normal.

  • I always have the necessary products available for purchase in the salon. Or to purchase online, click on the links >> shampoo*, conditioner*, treatments*, styling products*).

  • Move-ups are every 6 weeks.

  • Always come with dry hair for move-up appointments.
