FAQS
Can the hair be straightened?
Yes it absolutely can - straightened, curled, blown out - you name it. Just like our own hair, your extensions are susceptible to heat damage and loss of curl pattern, so we recommend applying a heat protectant to preserve the hair health if you are going to apply heat tools.
We have designed our textures to give you the full range of hair states with ease. For example, we love that Think Kink can be straightened to give a fluffy Press’d vibe but revert back to its kinks. However, if you know you want to straighten your Think Kink every day it’s probably best to just get Press’d so as to not over process your Think Kink hair (and to save some time in straightening it!). Or of course you can do like us and get both for ultimate range and ease!
Can the hair be dyed?
The short answer is yes. However, keep in mind that colouring human hair extensions requires the same TLC as colouring your own hair, and any dyeing you do is at your own risk.
Whenever you apply a light colour dye, the hair is slightly damaged in the process and can suffer loss of curl pattern/hair loss. This is because the chemical process of lightening hair means you are removing proteins and melanin from the hair, which weakens it.
For best results, we recommend giving it over to a professional who is familiar with colouring curly and coily hair, to ensure that your hair is under the best care.
What length is the headband on your headband wigs?
The headband for our measures at 53cm in circumference.
What hair length should I choose?
The advertised length of our hair is based on the stretched length of the hair - as in the length when you pull on a hair strand. However, similar to real kinky/curly hair, the “shrinkage” of the hair will make it seem about 40% shorter than the straightened out length.
to see our hair length guide to get an idea of the potential shrinkage when the hair is tightened. We also provide the stretched length which can be done with methods used to stretch your own hair (combing out, braid/twist outs or whatever your preferred method is!)
