I have Remi hair extentions and  the length is just below my shoulders.  My hair is only about 2 months old but feels very dry and tangles terribly.  I have tried heavy duty moisturizers (Biolage) and use a spray
leave-in detangler by Bumble & Bumble after I wash my hair (every other day)  I have also tried rubbing in a small amt of an oil that I bought for dry hair.  Can someone give me any suggestions about how to get rid of the tangles ??

Try a little pantien for color treated hair.

Should get them right out.

When you hair feels old and ratty, try silicone serum, like John Frieda serum, put it on damp hair, dry and style, and then apply a smaller amount on dry hair.

The best help for me comes from my Solia tourmaline flat iron, a few minutes after drying helps so much, it restores the shine and silkiness of your extensions.

Even if you wear your hair wavy/curly, using a flat iron first for like 5mn helps tremendously.
Another good thing as deep treatment is coconut oil, preferably virgin. Put it on dry hair and let it sit for an hour, with a hot towel or some plastic to cover it. Put a generous amount of it. Then shampoo and style as usual.
Good luck

I love a new product I stumbled onto called Moroccanoil.  It's an oily leave in type treatment.  I sell it in my salon now as well as use it on my extensions too.  I think it's 'must have' for extensions.  It's pricey though.

Hi Metal,
 
Does the Moroccanoil have a similar feel to jojoba oil or is it lighter or heavier?  I like putting oil on dried out ends and the hair usually sucks it right up with no problem but I tried olive oil at one point and it left a slight oil slick.
 
Thanks for the tip on the Moroccanoil oil.  Sounds like a great product to help with those ratty ends.

Ahhhh...yes.  At my braiding school they used Motions when they did the coils.  I had no idea it would work as a good hair oil but no that you mention it...it dried nicely but was not oily.  I am going to pick some up.  Thank you so much.

I use this motions daily....it revives my hair and make it look healthy....once you brush it through it isn't oily.....I use it everyday and I only wash my hair 1x a week.....helps my hair do better when the oils build up. I wish I had good hair and could wash more often....oh well....Im just happy to have what others think is good hair....if they only knew...lol
Thanks,
JeepGirl
