I get a lot of questions about what kinds of shampoo to use on hair extensions.

The truth is, there is no really perfect shampoo for hair extensions.

What can be said about it though is that there are certian types of shampoo and treatments that should be avoided. Anything that has a high ammount of conditioning oils or hot oil treatments should be avoided, also shampoos or styling products that contain high levels of silicone.

Pretty much any product that is made to make your hair look shiny and smooth. High gloss sprays, and silicone gels and the like can cause a pre-mature end to your hair extension experience if they are used often.

If you really want to play it safe you can buy hair extension shampoo from Great Lengths, but I don’t believe it’s really necessary.

Just use common sense with the idea that if you use shampoo or treatments that will make your hair slippery, the higher the chances are that it will give your hair extension bonds less grip, and more slip.
