Don't worry, we're here to help! First, take a deep breath. It's going to be okay! We know it can be frustrating when you're not able to get the results you want, but trust us, we've seen it all. Here are a few tips on how to fix your mistakes and get your hair extensions looking fabulous:
1. If your extensions are too tight: Gently remove the extensions and reapply them using a lighter hand. Be sure not to pull too hard on your own hair while doing so.
2. If your extensions are too loose: Use a small amount of clear nail polish or hair gel to secure the wefts in place. You can also try tying a piece of string or fishing line around the weft to cinch it up. Just be careful not to make it too tight!
3. If your extensions are tangled: Gently brush them out with a wide-toothed comb and use a leave-in conditioner to help detangle. You can also try using a commercial de-tangling spray, but be sure to test it on a small section of hair first to make sure it won't damage your extensions.
4. If your extensions are shedding: This is usually caused by poor quality hair or improper care. Try using a deeper conditioner or hair mask on your extensions, and be sure to brush them gently with a wide-toothed comb before washing. You can also try using a commercial anti-shedding spray or serum.
5. If your extensions are visible: This is usually caused by improper blending or incorrect color selection. Try to match your extension color as closely as possible to your own hair color, and be sure to blend the extensions into your hairline using a small amount of foundation or concealer. You can also try using a commercial camouflage spray or powder.
We hope these tips help you get your hair extensions looking their best! Remember, if you ever have any questions or need more help, our customer service team is always happy to assist you.
