Step-by-Step Guide to Washing Body Wave Tape-In Hair Extensions:

Gather Your Tools:

Before you begin, make sure you have everything you need within arm's reach. This includes a gentle sulfate-free shampoo, a moisturizing conditioner, a wide-tooth comb, and a soft towel.

Brush Thoroughly:

Start by gently brushing your body wave tape-in hair extensions to remove any tangles or knots. Use a wide-tooth comb, starting from the tips and working your way up to the roots. This prevents unnecessary tension on the tape attachments.

Dampen The Hair:

Put your tape-in hair extensions into the bowl of lukewarm water to dampen it. Squeeze the hair gently to remove the excess water, then put the hair into a dry towel.

Prepare the Shampoo:

Dilute a small amount of sulfate-free shampoo in lukewarm water. This ensures that the shampoo is evenly distributed and doesn't concentrate on specific areas of the extensions.

Apply Shampoo with Care:

Gently apply the diluted shampoo to the roots of your hair, taking care to avoid the tape area. Use your hands to gently massage the shampoo into the hair extensions. The body wave pattern adds a layer of complexity, so be mindful of maintaining those beautiful waves.

Rinse Thoroughly:

Once the shampoo is applied, rinse your hair extensions thoroughly with lukewarm water. Ensure that all shampoo residue is removed. You should do it from the bottom to the top so as not to cause tangle and loosen the wave.

Condition with Caution:

Apply a small amount of moisturizing conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends of your hair extensions, avoiding the tape area. Let the conditioner sit for a few minutes to nourish and hydrate the hair.

Final Rinse:

Thoroughly rinse out the conditioner with lukewarm water. Gently squeeze out excess water from the hair extensions, avoiding any aggressive rubbing.

Pat Dry:

Wrap your tape-in hair extensions in a soft towel and pat dry. Avoid rubbing vigorously as this can cause unnecessary friction and tangles.

Dry The Hair:

It’s best to allow your body wave tape-in hair extensions to air dry or style them as desired. But if you are in a hurry, you can use a dry blower to dry your hair extensions. Make sure to keep the blower not too close to the hair to prevent heat damage to your extensions.
