This is probably a question that we and our distributors are often asked. Although there are many articles, videos, social media posts, etc. answering this question, many end customers are still confused about it. Some customers who have just entered the hair extensions industry sometimes struggle with not knowing how to explain this issue to their customers. Based on the feedback from some customers who have been working as hair extension stylists for many years, we will sort out the answers to this question for you.

In fact, the reasons why customers are confused about this issue may be related to the following aspects:

1. Hair Breakage

It should be noted that there are various reasons for hair breakage. Usually, it is caused by the improper use of heat tools, bleaching, and the use of wrong hair care products (or other products that should not be used on hair extensions, such as excessive perfume deposits, etc.).

2. Excessive Hair Loss During Hair Extensions Removal

In fact, on average, a person normally loses 80 to 100 hairs every day. However, because of wearing hair extensions, many of the hairs that have naturally fallen out remain at the seams of the hair extensions (the beaded rows or anything like that). They will only be sorted out and seen when the hair extensions are removed. At this time, due to the accumulation over a period of time, it may seem that there are obviously more hairs. But this should obviously not be blamed on the hair extensions themselves.

After clarifying the above issues, let's answer the question of whether hair extensions will damage your hair or not.

Hair extensions will cause unnecessary damage to the hair and scalp to some extent only in the following three situations:

· Wrong Method

· Incorrect Fitting

· Improper Care

Professional stylists will judge the suitable types of hair extensions for customers through consultations and give professional suggestions. For example, some necessary "cocktailing", or when customers like a certain way of wearing hair extensions but don't know their actual situation, etc. For some DIY hair extensions kits on the market, you need to judge whether they are suitable for your actual situation before purchasing.

The basic and correct hair care usually includes:

· Come to the salon every 4 to 6 weeks;

· Use heat protector and hair mask;

· Use sulfate-free shampoo and leave-in products;

· Sleep with a satin pillowcase.
