AVH HAIRCARE TIPS

With the proper care and maintenance our Virgin Remy hair should last you up to 1 year. If you follow these hair maintenance steps, along with using our recommended AVH Hair Care products you can extend the life of your hair and get increased value from longer use.

How to Care For Your Hair:
*Keep the hair clean by washing once a week with warm or cool water. Do not wash hair too often this will dry the hair out.
*Wash the hair immediately after swimming, spa, and excessive exercise. When dirt and sweat accumulate, hair will tangle.
*Reduce the amount of stress on the hair and weft by making a couple of big braids when going to sleep, swimming or exercising (comb through the hair before making braids).
*Never sleep on wet hair. Make sure your hair is completely dry before going to bed.
*Make sure to brush the hair daily and always start from the ends and work your way up.
*When washing your hair make sure hair is completely combed through and detangled before washing (we recommend an AVH Detangler brush).
*Wash with cool to warm water. Excessive heat will lead to softening of the weft.
*Make sure hair is being washed in ONE direction (from scalp to ends) avoid circular motions! This can lead to tangling.
*Always use a moisturizing low sulfate shampoo, conditioner and AVHB product line.
*When conditioner is on the hair, leave it on for approximately five minutes and then comb through the hair starting from the ends. Rinse thoroughly!
Squeeze out excess water and blow dry gently on low heat or air dry. Do not towel rub or twist the hair to dry.
*When styling your hair do not overuse products on the hair. Too much leave-in conditioner and other hair care product will create a build up on the hair and will cause it to tangle. Wash hair with a good low sulfate shampoo, conditioner or AVH Hair Care products if you experience tangling, don’t continue to add product, as this won’t solve the problem. Be sure to gently brush and detangle hair before washing.
*The great thing about Virgin Human Hair is that you can style it as you would your own hair. You can color or perm the hair.
*We suggest that you use a professional colorist that has worked with Virgin hair before or we suggest you use a cream coloring system that isn’t as harsh on the hairs. 
*You can brush, blow dry, curl with curling iron, straighten with a flat iron and style any way you’d like.
*For Curly hair, be sure to brush the hair gently from the bottom to the top daily and apply a leave-in conditioner that will softens, moisturizes and does not leave hair frizzy. We recommend using All Virgin Hair conditioner from our AVH Hair Care Line. If you do not apply a leave in curl conditioner the hair will start to frizz and become dry.

Maintenance:  We recommend co-washing your extensions with AVH conditioner weekly.  We recommend using shampoo and conditioner on your extensions from our AVH Hair Care line bi-weekly.
