Care advice

After treatment 

After your Keratin Wax Hair Extensions or the Invisible Weaves have been placed, it is important to take good care of them to extend the lifespan and retain their fabulous appearance. Here are some guidelines to follow.

1. Hair care

Only use mild, natural products for your hair care after treatment. Wash your hair exclusively with silicone and sulfate -free shampoo and avoid using oil -rich products. In the salons (and on the webshop) we sell the line of N \ O Creative Haircare.

Please note: wait at least 2 days with washing after treatment. In particular with the Keratin Wax Hair Extensions, in the meantime needs some time to harden optimally. If you were to wash immediately after treatment, there is a good chance that you will lose tufts (quickly). 

2. Avoid Dyeing or Decolorizing

Extensions may not be discolored. Painting in a darker shade is possible but we also recommend. The discolouring/ painting can affect the integrity of the extensions.
We recommend having your own hair color in order before the treatment (not shorter than 1.5 th week before the appointment, this only applies to a keratin wax hair extensions treatment), we have many natural hair tones in our hair extensions by Char collection and with that we can match the hair of (almost) everyone!

3. Oil use

Only use hair oil in the dots of your own hair and the extensions and avoid contact with the wax bonds. Oil can ensure that the bonds slip, which leads to loss of extensions. We also recommend using it only in the lengths/points for the Weaves. 

Our favorite of N \ O Creative Haircare is the Therapy Oil, for silky dots! The oil is for sale in our salons and in the webshop. 

4. Sunscreen and self-tanner

Sunscreens and self-tanners can permanently stain your hair extensions. Ingredients like avobenzone, oxybenzone, and octocrylene, commonly found in sunscreens, are the main culprits. Discoloration can occur upon direct contact, particularly affecting lighter shades of hair extensions. 
The substances avobenzone, oxybenzone and octocrylene, which are found in most sunscreen products, are the culprits!  

The solution? A natural sunscreen, brands such as: Naïf, Clarins and Clinique. Not only good for your extensions, also for your skin and the environment.  

If you do not want to purchase another sunscreen, make sure you wear your hair up and do not let it come into contact with the cream.  

5. Silver shampoo

Be careful with the use of silver shampoo. Although it helps to neutralize unwanted yellow hues, it can also cause discoloration of your extensions. Always test a small piece of hair first or consult your stylist for advice. Extensions are no longer fed from the scalp, so the hair picks up colorings/ products more violently and can cause the dehydration in particular points. 

6. General Maintenance

Brush your hair regularly with a special extension brush (for sale in our salons and in the webshop) to prevent tangles. Start at the points and work out carefully. Make sure you wear your hair in a loose braid or ponytail at night to reduce friction and prevent tangles. Preferably with a soft scunchy of satin or velvet (you get 1 gift in our salons!)

7. Heat Protection

Always use a heat -protective product before using heat styling tools. Although the keratin extensions and the Weaves are resistant to heat, excessive warmth can affect the quality of both your natural hair and the extensions. Never go directly with a curling iron or styl tongs on the wax bonds or microreing, it just starts with the styling. We recommend that you set your heat tools at a maximum of 180 degrees.  

8. Have an interim check / raised up 

A keratin wax hair extensions treatment has 1 free service appointment. Schedule this with your stylist to have the condition of your extensions assessed and to have any necessary adjustments made. This helps to keep your extensions in optimum condition. In the service appointment we follow the bonds, we can place loose tufts back (save them and take them with you!) And wash/ blow -dry/ crop and style it as desired.  

Usually, if care is taken, about 10% of the tufts will slip during the wearing time. So don't be alarmed by this, but keep them until your service appointment!   

By following these guidelines, you ensure that your keratin wax hair extensions continue to look fabulous and that you enjoy them for a long time! 
Most customers schedule the service appointment approximately halfway through the extension's lifespan, around 1.5 months after application.  

With the Invisible Weave treatment, the subscription includes 4x upstairs, schedule this every eight 8 weeks (when paying in 1x you book these appointments separately and pay them separately). The Weaves will then be removed, your hair will be washed / filled or the track or jobs will be replaced and dots are cut if necessary. It is also styled as you want. This way you will leave Fabulous again!

9. Professional removal

Removing the keratin wax hair extensions and invisible weaves must be done carefully. To prevent hair damage, we recommend that you always have a professional removed at the Hair Extensions in our salon. Our stylists use a special tools and products for this, so don't do this yourself!

After removing, your hair will be washed and blurred again and opt for a new extensions or we style your own hair as desired. 
So that in both cases you leave Fabulous de Salon!
