Shampoo & conditioning

• Brush or comb Modi Hair extensions whilst dry before shampooing
• Wash your hair at least twice a week using a shampoo that is heavily moisturising and creamy in consistency leaving the hair feeling conditioned rather than squeaky clean. If unsure, ask your hairdresser
• We strongly recommend that before you start shampooing is to apply conditioner to mid lengths to the ends
• Prior to washing. Once the conditioner is in the hair you can proceed to wash the hair with the conditioner in the mid lengths to ends. This helps to prevents shampoos stripping or over washing your extensions. Shampoo your hair twice using a massaging technique rather than an aggressive scrubbing technique. Start by massaging the shampoo into your roots then proceed to squeeze the lather through to the ends. Shampooing twice is important because the first shampoo will help to nudge and break down any oil and dirt. The second shampoo will lather and help bring those oils and dirt to the surface to be rinsed off
• Proceed to rinse the shampoo thoroughly from your hair.
• After rinsing your hair, thoroughly towel dry to remove excess water
• It is recommended to use a heavily moisturising conditioner that is creamy in consistency rather than a light one that can leave your hair feeling un-moisturised. If unsure, ask your hairdresser.
• Remember to always apply a generous amount of conditioner to your hair.
• Using a wide tooth comb, start to comb through the conditioner beginning at the ends and working your way up to the scalp.
• Whilst rinsing out the conditioner, we recommend that a slight residue of the conditioner is left in your hair for further moisturising
• After rinsing your hair, thoroughly towel dry to remove excess water.
• Using a wide tooth comb, proceed to comb your hair starting at the ends and working your way to the roots.

Styling

• Letting your hair dry naturally is especially recommended with the Modi Hair wavy range.

• When blow drying Modi Hair extensions, it is recommended to comb each section of hair before blow-drying. At this point, we have found that products such as Bona cure Hair therapy Repair Rescue Sealed Ends by Schwarzkopf make a dramatic difference in the daily maintenance of hair extensions. Ask your stylist what they recommend .
• If you feel a few extensions that are stuck together just simply separate them.

•  It is important not to start blow drying your hair while completely wet.

Daily Maintenance

• Comb your hair with Modi Hair extension brush at least twice daily. We also suggest to check your hair extension, We also suggest to check your hair extension every few days for matting or knots, do this before going to bed.
• Avoid using any electric styling tools such as straightening irons and curling tongs.
• If you feel you need to use hot tools simply reduce your temperature to avoid damaging the hair extension and possibly your hair. Hot tools are the no 1 cause of hair damage these days so if you like you hair extension to last and you own hair to grow the use hot tools with caution.
• When applicable only use light hold styling products that contain a low hold factor.
• Avoid frequent tying your extensions up in pulled back pony tails. The creates stress mainly around the front and bottom of  the scalp.

Maintenance whilst sleeping

Before going to bed, tie up your hair loosely preferably using a cloth tie e.g. a scrunchy

After waking up, remove the hair tie and brush your hair using the Modi Hair

brush starting from the ends and working your way up towards the scalp.

Swimming/sauna/spa:

• It is not recommended to swim with hair extensions.
  However if at any stage you feel like taking a swim, avoid immersing your head under water or simply wear a swimming cap.
