Night Is the Most Dangerous Time for Extensions<\/h2>\n

Sounds dramatic? It’s true. During the night, we move 30\u201350 times in our sleep, and each movement creates friction between hair and pillow. Without protection, this friction tangles extensions, strains attachment points, and significantly shortens extension lifespan.<\/p>\n

Stylists say: 80% of extension damage happens at night. A 5-minute evening routine can double your extension lifespan.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

1<\/td>\n1 min<\/td>\nGently brush extensions from ends upward<\/td>\nRemoves daytime tangles<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
2<\/td>\n30 sec<\/td>\nApply small amount of hair oil to ends<\/td>\nMoisturizes and protects overnight<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
3<\/td>\n2 min<\/td>\nBraid hair in one or two loose braids<\/td>\nPrevents tangling and protects bonds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
4<\/td>\n30 sec<\/td>\nSecure with fabric hair tie (not metal!)<\/td>\nKeeps braid in place without damage<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5<\/td>\n0 sec<\/td>\nSleep on satin or silk pillowcase<\/td>\nReduces friction by up to 40%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Remember: braiding isn’t about looks \u2013 it’s extension protection. Even an imperfect braid is a thousand times better than loose hair at night.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
