Autumn is peak season for hair extensions, and there is a good reason for it: summer's sun, salt and chlorine are over, and your hair is heading into a period when it does best being left in peace.
Why autumn is a good time
- No sun bleaching that changes the colour after installation
- Less swimming, which is gentler on the attachments
- You have time to get used to your hair before the festive season in December
What to keep in mind
Autumn is also when many people shed more hair than usual. It is usually completely normal and passes, but it is worth mentioning at your consultation – we adapt the amount to what your hair can carry right now, not what it carries in May.
Rain, humidity and frizz
Damp autumn air makes hair lift. Use a lightweight leave-in and avoid brushing dry hair in rainy weather – it only makes the frizz worse.
Always dry the attachments
If you come home soaked, dry the attachments with a hairdryer on a cool setting before you put your hair up or go to bed. Damp attachments are the most common reason an installation comes loose too early.
