BEST PRODUCTS FOR HAIR EXTENSIONS
We’re excited to share our master list of products we recommend using on your Bombshell hair extensions! It’s incredibly important to invest the time and money into the right products to ensure the best care for your new extensions. After visiting your stylist to install your extensions, the real care begins in maintaining the quality of your extensions with the proper at-home care. A key part of at-home care is knowing and using the best products to ensure the quality and comfort of your Bombshell hair extensions.
With hair care products, one of the most important things is to use products that are hydrating enough for your extensions. Our scalp only produces enough natural oils for our natural hair, so you will need to supplement with products that provide additional hydration & a hair serum to allow continued moisture for your extensions.
Over years of testing different products, here are our recommendations on which products and brands we can ensure will help support the quality of your extensions. The (3) brands we recommend below for using with your Bombshell hair extensions are: Virtue Labs, Kerastase and/or Iles Formula. At the very least, the must-haves we suggest investing in are: a quality shampoo & conditioner, a leave-in conditioner, and an oil serum.
We do not advise using protein-enriched products as it is not ideal for extensions and can cause protein overload and lessened hair quality. As a professional hair extensions company, Bombshell Extensions, receives many questions/concerns regarding the correct products to use on the hair. We wanted to touch base on the difference in “Professional” product lines that seem to work the best/worst on extension hair.
We always recommend products that are heavily geared towards adding moisture/heat protectants to the hair. The brands that are not as easily accessible (ones that cannot be found at stores like CosmoProf/Salon Centric) seem to work best on the extension hair. Below is a list of product lines that we have found work the best, as well as worst on our hair.
As a note- these are just our opinions based on data/research we have discovered within our own company.
