We all want our hair to look it’s best when we are away, and hair extensions are great way to add that extra volume and length your hair has been lacking. Aftercare is very important when you have hair extensions, and it’s important to use the correct products from shampoo, conditioner, and sun creams.
Certain sun creams can stain hair extensions, to avoid this happening, we would advise you to use a mineral-based sun cream. We have listed below 4 sun creams that are ‘coral reef friendly’ and don’t contain bad staining chemicals. All these sun creams are available in Boots or online at Amazon, remember to only buy the mineral version of the brand.

Opt for heatless hairstyles such as braids, buns low, ponytails, or natural waves. This will prevent unnecessary damage to both your natural hair and the extensions from excessive heat styling.
Depending on your holiday activities, make sure to keep your extensions safe, whether you are in and out of sea or pool or doing a lot of activities. We advise wearing your hair in a low ponytail or bun to reduce tangling.
Be gentle when combing or brushing your hair extensions, starting from the ends, and working your way up .This will prevent tangling and keep your extensions looking their best. We recommend using a tangle teaser for the best result.
