- A deficiency in the minerals magnesium, zinc, or calcium affects the nourishment of hair and may eventually cause the hair to fall out. An imbalance of calcium and magnesium (caused by eating too much sugar) also causes hair loss.
- Selenium helps your body properly utilize proteins and hormones that aid in hair growth.
- Zinc promotes cell reproduction, strengthens the hair shaft and maintains the oil-secreting glands that are attached to hair follicles. Too much zinc or any of these minerals however, can actually cause hair loss – so before taking any type of vitamin or nutritional supplements consult your physician.

Braid Pattern and Size
This can truly make or break a good weave! While there are universal braid patterns, no two heads are shaped exactly alike. Your braid pattern should reflect the style that you have chosen, as well as your head shape. Tip: Make sure your base braids are small. Bulky braids lead to a bulky weave.

A Great Cut
There is a huge misconception when it comes to cutting your weave. Cutting your weave allows for personalization. It could be light layers to frame your face, or long layers to create body and movement. This should be done to enhance the end result, and to make your installation look and flow as natural as possible. Tip: Cut your weave to a style that suits you.

Maintenance: No longer than 8 weeks
Generally, weaves protect your hair from the everyday wear and tear that can result from daily styling. However, keeping your weave in longer than the suggested time can most unquestionably damage your hair underneath. Tip: Maintenance is key.

Textures: Don’t be afraid to mix!
Create your signature style by blending textures with 100% human hair. For example, combining wavy hair with curly gives you an easy wash-and-go style. A relaxed texture combined with straight will give you the perfect blend and with lots of body. Tip: Experiment with different textures.

Your Natural Hair
Always leave out as little of your natural hair as possible if you’re applying a full head of hair extensions that don’t exactly match your natural hair texture. Tip: The less you have out, the less you have to manage.

Avoid Hairline Breakage
Try to leave out ample hair around the edges to avoid added tension around your hairline. Tight braids applied close to your hairline with tracks sewn on them can easily break or cause further damage like tractional alopecia. Always moisturize your hairline at night. Try to use a product that is not too heavy to avoid buildup in your hair extensions. Tip: Take care of your natural hair.
