How Long Do Halo Extensions Last? Tips for Prolonging Their Lifespan
Halo extensions are the perfect low maintenance accessory for adding volume and length to hair quickly and effortlessly. Whether you already have a halo or you’re considering investing in one, a common question lingers: How long can you expect them to last?
Factors that affect a halos longevity
Quality of Hair
High-quality halo extensions crafted from premium human hair tend to last longer than synthetic alternatives. Human hair extensions can withstand more heat styling and regular washing than lower quality hair.
Frequency of Wear
This may sounds obvious, but the more frequently you wear your halo extension, the quicker it may show signs of wear and tear. Intermittent use allows the extensions to maintain their shape and structure for a longer duration.
Care and Maintenance Routine
Proper care is crucial to extending the lifespan of your halo extension. Here's some tips you can follow to make sure you take care of your halo in the best way possible:
Washing: Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, and avoid excessive rubbing or twisting while washing. Also avoid any shampoo or conditioner that is labeled with “repair”, “strengthening” and opt for labels that say “moisturizing” or “hydrating”.
This shampoo and conditioner is a great option for halo extensions
Styling: Limit the use of heat styling tools and opt for lower temperatures when necessary. Heat protectant products can help shield the extensions from damage.
Storage: Store your halo extensions in a cool, dry place when not in use, preferably in the provided packaging or a breathable bag.
Hair Type & Lifestyle
Individuals with oily scalp or active lifestyles may need to wash their halo extensions more frequently, which can affect their longevity. Similarly, exposure to chlorine, saltwater, or harsh environmental conditions may require extra care and maintenance.
TLDR;
The lifespan of halo extensions can vary based on several factors, including the quality of materials, care routine, frequency of wear, and individual lifestyle. By investing in high-quality extensions and adopting a meticulous care regimen, you can prolong the lifespan of your halo. If I had to give you some kind of timeline I would say most of my customers are able to get around 2-3 years out of their halos.
