What should I absolutely avoid doing with hair systems and extensions?

Avoid harsh chemicals, excessive heat, and aggressive brushing. Never rip the system off without remover. Skipping cleaning leads to buildup and odor. Treat it like real hair — but with more care

Avoid DIY or household hacks — they can cause serious damage. Key “don’ts” include:

  • Dish Soap: Do not use Dawn, Fairy, or Dreft to clean your hair system — it strips oils and weakens knots.
  • Isopropyl Alcohol: Too strong for regular use — safe only as a quick pre-cleanser.
  • Vinegar, Lemon, or Baking Soda: Can alter pH, fade color, and weaken knots.
  • Bleach: Extremely harsh; never use it on hair systems or extensions.
  • Household Glue or Spray Adhesive: Not meant for skin or hair — avoid completely.
  • Other Harsh Solvents: Acetone or bleach-based cleaners can damage the base and irritate your scalp.
