Prepare in good time
Christmas fills salons throughout December. If you want permanent tape or micro-bond extensions, book at least a couple of weeks before Christmas Eve. Clip-in extensions are a handy choice for holiday hair – they attach in seconds and are delivered straight to your door.
Care through the holiday season
- Protect extensions with heat protection before curling or straightening.
- Avoid heavy products at the roots – they can strain the attachments.
- Brush the extensions gently from the ends upward after the evening.
- Sleep with a loose braid if you have parties on several evenings.
Extensions as a Christmas gift
