 Getting down to the root cause.

Don’t you hate it when your hair extensions matt and tangle?
Even though hair extensions are a beautiful hair solution, sometimes they can tangle and you don’t even know what’s causing it. 

The most common causes your extensions tangle  

1) Not taking good care of your hair extensions.

Hair quality of the extensions is important. At Superiorhair, we vow to provide you with the highest tier hair extensions guaranteed. We assure you that you won’t have to worry about those low-quality hair extensions that have been overly processed that would tangle immediately to the exposure of water or poor weather conditions.
 

2) Low-quality hair products.

Hair products can take a toll on your hair extensions. The use of proper hair products makes a huge difference in whether your hair will tangle and matt up or remain soft and manageable. Find out what products work best by doing your own personal thorough research or feel free to ask the crew at Superior Hair. We can’t stress it enough, it’s highly recommended that you don’t risk the condition of your hair for low-quality products.

 

OTHER CAUSES INCLUDE

 

 3) Hair length.

Super long hair is prone to tangling so it’s advisable to trim it in layers.

4) Dryness.

Dry hair becomes brittle and can easily tangle up.

 

Now that you know the common causes of tangling and matting, let's find out how you can prevent them.

How to prevent tangling and matting?

1) Regular brushing

 

It’s that simple! Regularly brushing your hair significantly reduces the chances of your hair tangling down the road.
Always start from the ends and work towards the roots, and we advise you to do so when your hair is wet. If you opt to brush your hair when wet, be sure to use a wide-tooth comb. Tangling and knotting tend to happen mostly at the ends when hair is not brushed for days.

  

2) Use Sulphate-free hair products.

We urge you to steer clear of hair products that contain sulphate. Using products containing sulphates can strip your extensions of their natural moisture, leaving them weak and looking dry. After shampooing, apply an appropriate moisturising hair product that would leave your extensions well hydrated.

3) Secure your hair at night

Not tying up your hair can cause your extensions to rub against your pillow throughout the night. As a result, friction is created which leads you to wake up with tangled hair. If you’d rather not tie up your hair, it’s advisable to sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase. Protect your hair extensions and prevent tangling at all costs! 

4) Detangle, Detangle.

We cannot emphasize this enough. Also, please note that detangling is very different from brushing. This is what we mean:
-  Brushing is a preventative measure whereas
-  Detangling is a recovery measure
If your hair extensions tangle up, it is important to take your time to detangle them while they’re wet. You can also use your fingers so that there’s less tension and pulling on the strands. Ensure the detangling is done thoroughly!

 

It’s up to you now!


Preventing tangling and matting is not rocket science. All it takes is attention, proper care, and patience. Using proper products and tools go a long way. We hope this blog will help you to prevent tangling, matting, and shedding. Superior Hair hopes that you are now well equipped to handle tangling when it occurs. All the best on your glamourous looks!

Choosing the right hair extensions for you with Superior Hair

Choosing the right hair extensions for you with Superior Hair

Tired of waiting for your hair to grow out or wanting a quick hairstyle change? Hair-extensions is your answer! They add versatility, length and volume to your natural hair, allowing you to achieve your dream hair in no time! However, with so many different styles of extensions in the market, it can be overwhelming understanding which is the right fit for you. But don’t worry! This is why, we’ve made the perfect guide that will walk you through the most important factors to consider when selecting your hair extensions. 1. Lifestyle and Commitment Before choosing a hair extension method, consider your lifestyle and level of commitment. Some methods require more maintenance and regular salon visits, while others are more low-maintenance and can be easily managed at home. For example, Clip-in extensions are perfect for those who want a temporary hair transformation for special occasions or events. They can be easily clipped in and removed at home without any damage to your natural hair. On the other hand, tape-in or bonded extensions are more semi-permanent methods that require professional installation and maintenance. They may need adjustments every few weeks to keep them looking their best. 2. Hair Type and Condition   Your natural hair type and condition also play a crucial role in determining the right extension method for you. Different methods work better with certain hair types, so it's essential to consider your hair's texture, thickness, and length. For fine or thin hair, clip-in extensions are generally a good option as they provide instant volume without causing strain on your natural hair. Tape-in extensions can also work well for fine hair as they lie flat against the scalp and blend seamlessly. However, bonded extensions may not be suitable for fine or thin hair as they can cause stress on the hair follicles. For thick or coarse hair, bonded extensions or sew-in extensions may be better options as they provide a stronger hold and can handle the weight of the extensions more effectively. These methods also allow for more versatility in styling, especially for curly or textured hair. 3. Desired Hairstyle and Look Consider the hairstyle and look you want to achieve with your hair extensions. Different methods offer varying degrees of versatility and styling options. Clip-in extensions are ideal for those who want to experiment with different hairstyles and looks without a long-term commitment. They can be easily removed and styled at home to achieve various hairstyles, from updos to curls to braids.  Tape-in or bonded extensions offer more natural-looking results and allow for more freedom in styling, including heat-styling and updos.  Sew-in or weft extensions are great for those who want to add length and volume while also having the flexibility to style their hair in different ways. 4. Budget and Investment Consider your budget and the investment you are willing to make in hair extensions. Different methods come with varying price points, and it's essential to factor in the cost of installation, maintenance, and upkeep. Clip-in extensions are generally the most affordable option as they can be easily purchased and installed at home. Tape-in or bonded extensions may require a higher upfront cost for professional installation, but they can last longer with proper maintenance. Sew-in or weft extensions may also require professional installation, and the cost can vary depending on the quality of the hair and the stylist's expertise. Remember that investing in high-quality hair extensions is crucial for achieving natural-looking results that last. Cheaper options may not last as long or may not blend well with your natural hair, so it's important to consider the long-term value when making your decision. 5. Maintenance and Care Different hair extension methods require varying levels of maintenance and care. Consider your lifestyle and schedule to determine which method fits your lifestyle and routine. Clip-in extensions are generally low-maintenance and can be easily removed, cleaned, and stored. Tape-in or bonded extensions may require regular salon visits for adjustments and maintenance.   Choosing the right extensions can make all the difference in how you feel about your hair. Whether you're looking for length, volume, or both, there are a variety of extensions to suit your needs. This is why it's important ot consider the factors stated above when making your decision.
