How To Best Maintain Your Hair Extensions At Home 

Luxury Hair deserves luxury care. 

At Mane Chic, we exclusively work with Covet & Mane’s premium, hand-tied extensions, crafted with silicone-free, cut-point wefts that blend seamlessly for an effortlessly natural finish. When properly maintained, these extensions can last 6–8 months, with reapplications every 6–8 weeks, depending on your growth and at-home care.

To keep your hair looking elevated between appointments, follow our signature care guide below:

Wash Less (And Wash Gently)

Over-washing can strip your hair—and your extensions—of the moisture they need. We recommend washing no more than twice a week using sulfate-free products to keep your strands hydrated and strong. And remember: be gentle! Treat your extensions like you would your favorite silk blouse: delicately and with care. 

Cut Back on Heat

Extensions can be more prone to dryness, so the less heat, the better. Embrace air-drying when possible, or try heatless styling for a damage-free alternative (pro tip: heatless curls are having a major moment). If you do use hot tools, keep the heat low and use a thermal styling protectant.

Brush with Care

Brushing regularly helps prevent tangling, but the brushing technique matters, too. Hold the top of your weft and start brushing from the ends up to reduce tension and avoid pulling. Reach for a boar-bristle or flexible-bristle brush made specifically for extensions to keep everything smooth and secure

Never Sleep on Wet Hair

Wet hair is vulnerable hair. Going to bed with damp strands can cause breakage, frizz, and tangling, especially with extensions. Make sure your hair is fully dry before heading to bed, and consider switching to a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and keep things sleek while you get your beauty rest.

With a little intention and the right tools, your extensions will stay just as flawless at home as they do in our chair!
