Aftercare Guide

This guide shows you how to properly look after your extensions so your natural hair stays healthy and is given the best environment to grow.
You will receive a full aftercare PDF when you have your new set fitted.

At Bella Dolls, we believe in long-term hair health rather than quick fixes. Our extensions are applied and maintained with the integrity of your natural hair as our absolute priority.

Your aftercare steps

Brushing & detangling

Use a soft bristle brush.

Always start from the ends and hold the bonds to prevent tension on the roots.

Washing & drying

Wash upright and avoid scrubbing the roots.

Ensure your hair is 100% dry at the roots and attachments to prevent slipping or matting.

Always tie your hair in a loose braid or low ponytail before bed.

Use a silk or satin pillowcase to minimize friction and tangles.

Sleeping with extensions
Heat styling

Apply heat protection and keep tools away from the bond area. Style gently to preserve the quality and longevity of both hair types.

Refits & trims

Book your maintenance appointments every 6-8 weeks. Regular trims help keep your natural hair and extensions looking seamless and healthy.

Products & treatments

Use sulfate-free, extension-safe products. A full list is in your aftercare guide when booking.

Avoid heavy oils near the bonds to prevent slippage and keep everything in place.
