Hi I'm kinda new here. I have a few questions....I have So Cap extensions. My hair is short but not long....almost to where my neck & shoulders meet.  Ive had my extensions(curly) put in April 7th for my wedding since the time they were put  24 have fallen out......I have oily hair. I wash & dry it every other day. I use volumizing shampoo & conditioner.  My hair dresser told me I could use my s & c all over my hair.  Now she is putting in the 24 that fell out. What is she supposed to re-tip them w/.  Ive lost trust in my hairdresser....Can someone educate me on human hair extensions.  How to care for them, the right shampoo & conditioner plz.

Thanks

I think socap has a great product. It's nice of your stylist to put them back in for you (I'm guessing there won't be a charge?). It sounds like she's got integrity.

If you can afford socap then that's great! If not I would recommend the sew in method. I love it. Just purchase really good hair so you can keep using it for every install. Most braiders charge between $25 - $50 per track. You may only need one or two tracks and they last on me six weeks.

Oh, also if you have oily hair the fusion is more likely to slip out.

I had SoCap - i found they stayed longer than Great Lengths(more expensive,GL)~
Make sure when you go in for your 'check up' w/your stylist that she is "filling' in - not just checking your extentions- they are sopose to be moving around the extentions so that your hair wont break off- also so that your hair doesnt look noticeable-as well. If she doesnt do that then she/he is only in it for the money. 
There is a special brush for extentions and certain brands you can use for shampoo and conditioner- so make sure you are only using those- make sure you are not using "syrups or syrums" in you hair(friz-ease etc)- that will make them slip out from teh weight etc.
Use nothing w/Silicone in it.

Don't put the conditioner on the bonds, that could make them slip out.

Good luck!
