Wearing Virgin Brazilian Hair Extensions

By Dawn Williams


Weaves or hairpieces can be beautiful as well as natural looking. Those that are applied with care, are professionally done, and the tresses are smooth and silky are a great thing to show off. For these reasons, virgin Brazilian hair extensions are becoming a preference for those who like to wear weaves and or have longer hair.

For many decades now, people have tried to get the natural look with many application techniques and types of tresses that may be bought. Though some were able to achieve this with expensive trips to the salon or high maintenance methods that included the use of special shampoos and conditioners, this was not enough. However, this did inspire leaders of the beauty industry to seek better quality hair for the consumer.

One area where users tend to get confused is the fact that these need care as well as their own natural locks it is attached to. Some wearers sacrifice one for the other, which can lead to disastrous results. Either the extensions are ruined, it becomes dry and brittle or breaks off at the scalp.

The truth is that there is no one way to maintain extensions as it also depends on the wearers hair type and condition. Anyone with oily tresses and scalp should use a powder shampoo to clean their scalp. These can be washed weekly with a mild shampoo. It is best to wash using slow strokes from the scalp all the way down to the edges.

Every wash should be followed up with a light conditioner and deep conditioning should be done at least once a month. If the tresses are dry or colored, deep conditioning can be done every other week. Be certain to wash out all hair products with every shampoo so there is no buildup, which can damage the scalp underneath.

Use a thick towel to dry extensions by gently patting them. These have a natural wave pattern that is best maintained with air drying. For anyone who does want a wet scalp or has really thick tresses, a handheld dryer may be used on areas that are hard to dry.

A wide tooth comb may be used to comb hair but others like to use a hair extension loop brush. As there are different application techniques used to apply these, wearers may want to separate their locks into small parts and use the comb or brush carefully. This is also the best time to treat a dry scalp with a light oil or moisturizer.

Unless the wearer wants to lose the wave pattern and go completely straight, heating tools should be avoided. Curling irons may be used sparingly and if adhesives or bonding solution was used to apply the extensions, follow directions to avoid loosening or damage. Anyone who is considering this look should have a healthy head of hair that is well conditioned. A good cosmetologist can make recommendations to anyone who wants to wear virgin Brazilian hair extensions but may have challenges such as breakage or thinning.
