There’s nothing more spectacular than a fresh new look. Keeping that look stunning requires some day to day management that will protect your investment and keep you feeling beautiful and confident. The following instructions are for Julia Human Hair Sew-ins and do not apply to synthetic, glued in or braided extensions.This complete guide is all about keeping you fabulous and your hair healthy, shiny and strong. We will be sharing daytime care, night time care.

Daily Care

Protecting - Before you start styling your cheap Malaysian virgin weave hair in the morning the very first thing you must do is moisturise. The amount of moisturising you need to do is dependent on how good your night time routine is, the type of human virgin hair you have and how old the hair is. Spray your virgin hair with a light moisturiser (you can mix conditioner and water in a spray bottle to make your own). If your night time routine is great and you've followed all the tips below then this should be very easy for you. Spray the hair very lightly and rub in with your fingers, comb through the hair with a wide tooth comb then spray again until the hair is softer. Complete this stage by adding 2 drops of Argan oil or Olive oil (or any oil you prefer) to your palms and rubbing it all over especially on the ends. Make sure this is done before styling your hair - if done well you may not even need to style the hair at all - it just falls into place.

Styling - When styling your human virgin hair make sure that you are using the right tools for the job. Try to avoid tough bristle brushes to style your hair as this can scratch the hair cuticle. Once the hair cuticle becomes excessively scratched or damaged the hair will start to clump together, tangle and matte. Virgin hair is less resistant to the scratching of the bristle brush than your real hair is. So if you want to keep the hair strands smooth and silky, avoid the bristle brush. Great alternatives include a paddle brush with coated tips and wide tooth combs.

Maintaining - you worry that your hair may not keep its style throughout the day so you carry in your handbag a collection of combs and tools to attack the hair with every 30 minutes without realising. Stop it! Stop brushing it so much, stop running your hands through it all the time just leave it alone and let it look pretty. Remember - virgin hair cuticles are not attached to a scalp so they will not be getting any of the natural oils and nutrients your scalp would normally give your real hair.

Now i'm not saying you should go around looking like a wild animal, if your hair needs taming then do so. Always see if you can sort it out with your fingers first and if not then bring out the brush, but make sure you start from the bottom and work your way up with the brush or comb.

Nightly Care

  1. Brush out any tangles or knots with a wide tooth comb.

  2. Use a light moisturiser to re-hydrate the hair (Be very light, the product build up can happen very quickly and compromise your style, use this step only as needed)

  3. Use a moisturiser on the nape and edges of your hair, if you have any hair out, be sure to gently moisturise that as well and try to reach your scalp at least twice a week.

  4. Wrap the sewn in hair in a circular motion using a large paddle brush around the head and secure with pins if necessary.

  5. Secure with a silk or satin scarf or tight satin bonnet. If you have a longer style, wrapping may be cumbersome and large flexi rod rollers to secure the hair may be a better option. They are quick and will not alter the bone straight look, but will give your hair body and protect the style while you sleep.
