Sad Dry hair extensions, please help!!!! - 31-07-08, 09:32 AM

Hi Everyone,

I had hair extensions put in on the 15th July and they looked great, i did all my research found someone with experience to put them in and bought decent hair etc. Well 2 weeks on and i ready to take them out myself!!! They have gone really dry and looked knotty even after i've just brushed them. I've use conditioner everytime i wash my hair but i've also tried racoon leave in conditioner and hair masques and nothing seems to be working, is there any other products i could try that would help or should i just have them taken out? I'm really dissappointed because they looked great the first few days .
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks very much

Hello,

I would contact the person who put them in, go over the aftercare advice sheet with them, if they gave you one, and see what the problem is just to make sure you are not doing anything wrong. Ask if they have had this problem before. They should be more than happy to help you put them right!

Hi! If you can get some wig conditioner and put it in your hair and brush it through it will make a big difference. Are your extensions human hair or synthetic. Synthetic extensions will not respond to condtioner like human hair will. You have to remember that although the extensions are in your natural hair, they don't absorb the oil that your scalp produces, which is what keeps your natural hair shiney and manageable. The person who put them in should be able to recommend a product to help revive your extensions. If not, go to an ethnic salon or ethic hair care supplier and ask them.Hope this helps!
