Autumn is peak season for hair extensions, and there is a good reason: the summer sun, salt and chlorine are over, and your hair is entering a period when it benefits most from being left alone.
Why autumn is a good time
- No sun bleaching that changes the color after application
- Less swimming, which is gentler on the attachments
- You have time to get used to your hair before the festive season in December
What you need to consider
Autumn is also when many people lose more hair than usual. This is generally completely normal and passes, but it is worth mentioning during the consultation - we adjust the amount according to what your hair can support now, not what it could support in May.
Rain, humidity and frizz
Humid autumn air makes hair stand up. Use a lightweight leave-in conditioner and avoid brushing dry hair in rainy weather - it will only make the frizz worse.
Always dry the attachments
If you come home soaking wet: dry the attachments with a hairdryer on a cool setting before putting your hair up or going to bed. Damp attachments are the most common reason an application comes loose too early.
