Så förbereder du håret inför en hårförlängning

Hair in good condition carries more, holds longer and looks better. The four weeks before your appointment are therefore not wasted – they affect the result more than most people think.

Four weeks before

  • Do not bleach your hair. If you want to change the colour, do it now, not later.
  • Trim off damaged ends – they do not disappear just because they are hidden.
  • Wait for an irritated scalp to settle down.

Two weeks before

  • A deep conditioning treatment once a week
  • Cut back on heat styling
  • Start using a sulphate-free shampoo

The day before

  • Wash your hair clean, with no conditioner near the roots
  • No dry shampoo, oil or styling products
  • Come with dry hair worn down – the attachments hold less well on product residue

Tell us if you are undergoing treatment

Medication, hormonal changes and illness can affect how strong your hair is and how much it can handle. We do not judge – it is information we need to choose the right amount and method.

The next step is the consultation.
