At Kara's we will continue to support you after your hair extensions have been put in. We are available to answer any questions you might have, and will arrange a free maintenance check-up in the salon approximately 4 - 6 weeks after your initial appointment.

• Do not shampoo your hair for at least 48 hours after your extensions have been applied to allow the bond to set
• Always use Great Lengths aftercare products as these have been specifically designed to prolong the life and appearance of your hair extensions
• Always follow the directions on the bottle
• Shampoo and condition your hair at least once a week
• Finish by rinsing your hair in diluted Final Rinse Anti Tap to restore your hairs pH value

• Always dry your hair thoroughly, starting at the bond, as it is at its most vulnerable when wet
• Do not towel dry the hair with a scrubbing motion. Instead, use a blotting motion and wrap the hair in a towel to remove excess moisture
• Always blow dry your hair on a cool/warm temperature

• Great Lengths flat headed, soft bristle brushes are the most suitable for brushing your hair
• With small sections of hair gently brush from the bonds to the ends of the hair
• Do not comb between the scalp and the bond. On a regular basis, separate the bonds with your fingers to prevent matting

• Styling products such as Great Lengths Styling Glaze can only be applied to the lengths and ends of your hair and not the bond itself
• The Great Lengths round brush can be used for blow drying
• Straighteners, tongs and heated rollers can be used, however they must be kept away from the bond area

• We recommend you tie your hair in a loose pony tail to prevent tangling while sleeping

• Regular swimming, particularly in sea water and chlorinated water
• Regular sauna or steam room use
• Excessive aerobic activity
• After these activities use diluted Great Lengths Final Rinse Anti-Tap solution to restore your hair and scalp to it's natural pH balance. Remember to always dry the bonds thoroughly
