The Must-Have Products for Hair Extensions
Investing in high-quality hair extensions is a game-changer—but how you care for them makes all the difference in how long they last and how effortlessly they blend into your natural hair. At White Brick Salon, we believe that luxury doesn’t just come from the service itself; it’s in the daily rituals, the small moments of care, and the confidence you feel every time you look in the mirror.
Your extensions are an investment in your beauty, your self-expression, and your confidence, so let’s make sure they stay looking and feeling incredible. Here’s our must-have list for healthy, long-lasting extensions.
The following are stocked in the salon and ready to go home with you after your apartment!
A High-Quality Hairbrush
✨ Why It’s Essential: Extensions require gentle detangling to prevent stress on both the bonds and your natural hair. Using a standard brush can tug at the extensions, causing unnecessary tension and breakage.
✨ White Brick Recommends: A loop brush or an extension-friendly bristle brush to keep everything smooth, tangle-free, and perfectly blended. Bonus tip? Brush from the ends up—never root to tip—to minimize pulling.
Hydrating Hair Serum
✨ Why It’s Essential: Unlike your natural hair, extensions don’t receive the same oils from your scalp, which means hydration is key to preventing dryness and tangling. A lightweight yet deeply nourishing serum keeps extensions soft, silky, and looking fresh.
✨ White Brick Recommends: Goldie Locks Hair Serum—formulated specifically for extensions to provide hydration without buildup or greasy residue. Pick it up at your appointment.
A Filtered Showerhead
✨ Why It’s Essential: Hard water—filled with chlorine, heavy metals, and minerals—can be a hidden enemy of both extensions and natural hair. It dulls your color, dries out your hair, and can cause tangling and premature wear.
✨ White Brick Recommends: The Jolie Filtered Showerhead, which removes harsh minerals and chlorine, helping to keep your extensions soft, vibrant, and long-lasting while also improving your scalp health and even your skin.
A Salon-Grade Heat Protectant
✨ Why It’s Essential: Extensions are more vulnerable to heat damage because they don’t regenerate the way natural hair does. Using hot tools without a thermal protectant can lead to dryness, frizz, and reduced longevity.
✨ White Brick Recommends: Always apply a high-quality, lightweight heat protectant before blow-drying or styling with hot tools. This locks in moisture, shields against heat, and keeps your extensions looking healthy and vibrant.
