Healthy hair depends on more than just products. 

Whether you’re wearing your natural hair or blending it with blūm clip-ins, wigs, or bundles, how you care for your strands every day directly impacts how your styles look and how long your extensions last.

blūm extensions are made from 100% virgin human hair and are designed to blend seamlessly with natural textures.

Because of that, they deserve the same level of care and attention you give your own hair.

From wash day to daily maintenance, here are the essential habits that help keep your blūm hair looking and feeling beautiful.

Keep Your Scalp Clean and Moisturized

  • Use a gentle cleanser on your scalp once a week to remove buildup from sweat, product, and environmental exposure.
  • Follow with a lightweight oil or scalp mist to keep your scalp hydrated without clogging follicles.

This is especially important if you're wearing leave-out or transitioning between styles.

Detangle with Care

  • Always start from the ends and work your way up, using a wide-tooth comb or your fingers while the hair is damp and conditioned.
  • Avoid rushing the process or detangling dry to preserve texture and prevent damage.

Wash and Condition Regularly

  • Wash your clip-ins, bundles, or wigs every one to two weeks, depending on how often you wear them.
  • Use a sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoo followed by a rich conditioner.
  • Scrunch curly textures while damp to help curls reform and maintain bounce.
  • Always air dry flat on a clean towel. Avoid high heat, twisting, or wringing.

Store Your Extensions Properly

  • Use the blūm Beauty Vanity Set for a clean, dry, tangle-free storage solution.
  • Avoid tossing your extensions into drawers or letting them pile up loosely.

Protect Hair While You Sleep

  • Wrap hair in a satin or silk scarf or sleep on a satin pillowcase to reduce friction and retain moisture.

Match Your Routine to the Season

  • Use lightweight products in warm months to keep scalp fresh and curls defined.
  • Switch to heavier creams and oils in cooler seasons to lock in moisture.
