QuoteReplyTopic: My extensions have lost condition :( Posted: March 07 2008 at 2:15pm
I have human hair clip in hair extensions that were sooo smooth and straight when I got them, but they are gona quite scruffy now! I have washed and conditioned them a few times and heat styled them also. The first time I ever straightened them they just looked more textured, which was ok because it meant they blended in with my own hair better (I couldnt get my own hair as silky!) but now they are jus scruffy looking. How can I restore them to their former glory?

Well...you might not be able to! But, you can do a major deep conditioning: thick conditioner mixed with olive or coconut oil. Wrap the hair in foil and blast it with a blow dryer or put on a heat register --- anything that will heat it gently. I let mine sit for a few days. Rinse it out and apply a good leave-in and you are good to go. You will likely have to do this more often now, because the hair has worn off it's coating.
Many hair vendors coat the hair with sillicone and after a few shampoos and it washes off, you are left with crappy hair.
One product that I have been using in my salon is called Moroccanoil and I love it. It is a oil based leave in treatment that really restores the luster and softness like nothing I've ever seen before.
Here is the company site, but they don't sell to the general public. However, if you google moroccanoil you will find many online retailers.
