How to restore hair after extension?

Extension allows you to quickly achieve not only the desired volume, but also the length of the hair, which is why it is so popular. Despite the large number of benefits from the procedure, it negatively affects the general condition of the hair, therefore, subsequent restoration is required.

Damage that is a consequence of build-up, that is, mechanical and chemical influences, is the cause of the violation of the structural integrity of the hair. As a result, split ends appear, the hairstyle looks untidy, and it is difficult to shape.

Hair needs a solid base, a building block called protein keratin. Bleaching agents and solutions, thermal and mechanical effects damage them, destroying the bonds between amino acids in the keratin structure. If the procedure is performed on a regular basis, such damage is an unintended side effect.

The cuticle is a window into the deeper structure of the bark, which traps moisture where it is needed to protect it from negative environmental influences. When damaged, our curls quickly lose moisture and become porous.

Damage to the cuticle can also cause the hair to be dry and coarse, split towards the ends. The cuticle cannot be replaced, but the condition can be easily dealt with with proper hair care. Protection can be achieved through the use of a quality serum. A good smoothing agent will coat the hair shaft, trapping moisture and locking it where it needs to be.

• The best way to restore natural growth is to use natural oils. Many oils are generally available in the market today. Almond, mustard, olive, coconut oil are some of the most common foods for this. There are many combinations of these oils that are recommended by herbal experts, as they not only provide the necessary nutrition to the hair, but also stimulate the growth of the bulb.
• The use of hair dryers, curling irons, and other procedures will need to be postponed as they tend to weak hair. All of them involve the use of heat, and it negatively affects the general condition. You don't need to use hard combs either.

• The main part of the hair composition is protein, so re-growth can be stimulated by consuming large amounts of it in food. Particularly beneficial in this regard is soy protein, which is found in milk, soy cheese, and beans. Meat is also a good source as it contains all the essential amino acids needed for hair growth.
• Sometimes hair loss can be a side effect of certain medications that a person uses to treat a particular condition, so the build-up may not have anything to do with it. If so, it's worth asking your doctor about it and trying to find a way around it.

• Overly chemically formulated shampoos can provide temporary shine to hair, but they gradually weaken it. Better to buy one based on natural ingredients.
