The 3 Rules to Follow When Using Blonde Hair Extensions

Unlike other common hair extensions, using and maintaining blonde hair extensions are a bit different and difficult. In black-coloured hair extensions, you do not have to worry about the colour or the shade; it will remain the same in every climate. But when it’s about blonde hair extensions, it’s very important to follow several rules to maintain the perfect tone.

In this blog, we have mentioned the 3 major rules that you should follow when using blonde hair extensions. These rules are applicable for all the seasons and different temperature levels.

 First, never bleach the blonde hair extensions 

Bleaching is allowed on your natural hair only if they are healthy enough to go undergo the procedure. Colouring or bleaching of hair extensions can severely damage the strands and will not be possible to use for long. For blond hair extensions, you should opt for a lighter set and deposit colour to arrive at the perfect shade. If not this, we recommend using seasonal hair extensions and avoid any colour updates. 

Second, use protective layers at the time of swimming

Swimming pools consist of chlorine and salt mixed water which is harmful to normal hair as well as blonde hair extensions. Chlorine or other minerals from swimming pools deposit on the hair and damage the shade. The damage will be so severe that it can even alter the colour of the hair extensions. Before getting inside the swimming pool, you only need a swim cap which will be a protective layer for your hair extension. There is no need to saturate or condition your extension to protect it during swimming. 

Third, use colour correcting shampoo 

Every time you wash your blonde hair extension, it will lose its colour. With time, you will find that the extension has lost its actual shade. It’s more in the blonde hair extensions because they are less pigmented than darker shades. It’s an on-going process that you cannot prevent but you can slow down the same. To do so, use mild colouring shampoo and restore tone the colour for a longer time. Besides, colouring shampoo will also help in reviving the blonde colour. Use it alternatively with hair extension safe shampoo.

Other than these specific rules for blonde hair extensions, you should consider the other common rules applicable to other extensions. Like you should use a soft brush to detangle the strands, never sleep wearing the extensions, use hair extension stands for proper storage, learn wearing and removing the hair extensions, clean regularly, and so on. The rules mentioned-above will majorly help in maintaining the tone of the blonde hair extensions. 

If you still have any queries, you should consult with a professional hair care expert.
