Our extensions are crafted from real human hair, so they must be treated with the same care, intention, and delicacy as naturally growing hair. Proper maintenance protects your investment and keeps your raw hair beautiful long-term.
⭐ Professional Installation
For best results, we recommend having your extensions installed by cosmetologist who is experienced with raw hair. Raw hair is luxury hair — and proper installation ensures longevity, minimal tension, and a seamless look.
⭐ Brushing & Detangling
Raw hair must be handled with care.
• Always detangle from the bottom up
• Never brush aggressively from root to tip
• Use a detangling brush or wide-tooth comb
• For curly textures, use a Denman brush for curl separation and definition
Bottom-up detangling prevents unnecessary shedding and protects the integrity of the wefts.
⭐ Washing & Cleanliness
Clean hair performs the best.
• Wash regularly (biweekly depending on use)
• Deep condition consistently
• Rinse thoroughly to avoid buildup
• Avoid heavy products and butters
Raw hair activates, moves, and styles better when it is clean — just like real hair.
⭐ Products We Love
High-quality products keep your raw hair hydrated and beautiful. We recommend:
• Paul Mitchell
• Kenra Professional
• Design Essentials
• Sebastian
• Kerastase (Elixir Ultime line)
• Wella Professionals
Lightweight oils and hydrating leave-ins work best. Avoid heavy butters, waxes, or excessive product layers.
⭐ Heat Styling
Raw hair can be straightened, curled, and styled beautifully — including our curly textures — but heat must be used responsibly.
• Always use a heat protectant
• Keep heat settings moderate
• Avoid daily high-heat styling
• Curly textures are more sensitive to heat
Excessive or unprotected heat can cause permanent heat damage, just like with your natural hair.
Hot Tools We Recommend:
T3, BaBylissPRO, Dyson, CHI (for moderate use)
⭐ Nighttime Routine
Proper nighttime care preserves moisture and protects the cuticles.
• Wear a silk or satin bonnet
• Or use a silk pillowcase
• Avoid cotton pillowcases (they pull moisture out)
• For curly textures: loosely braid, twist, or pineapple at night
⭐ After Removal: Storing Your Extensions
(so important for longevity)
When removing your extensions:
1. Wash the hair immediately
2. Deep condition and rinse thoroughly
3. Allow it to air-dry for best results
4. Store the hair in your AnJae Monea satin storage bag
Never store extensions while dirty — product buildup can dry out the strands and cause long-term damage.
⭐ Reviving Hair After Heat Damage or Heavy Use
If your hair has been over-styled or lightly heat damaged:
• Apply a deep conditioner or mask
• Place the hair under a dryer for 30–60 minutes
• Rinse and air-dry
Raw hair responds exceptionally well to moisture restoration.
⭐ Longevity Expectation
With proper care, your raw hair can last 3–4+ years, depending on install method, maintenance routine, styling habits, and coloring/heat use.
Raw hair rewards consistency — treat it well, and it will remain beautiful for an exceptionally long time.
