Want Your Genius Wefts to Last Longer? Here’s How.

Investing in high-quality hair extensions—especially genius wefts—deserves a good aftercare routine. With the right maintenance, your clients can enjoy soft, silky, natural-looking hair for 6 to 12 months or more.

Whether you’re a stylist or a client, this guide will show you exactly how to care for genius weft hair extensions to keep them looking flawless from day one to the next install.

Why Proper Aftercare Matters

Genius wefts from Haiyi Hair are made with 100% Virgin Remy Human Hair. That means:

• The cuticles are aligned

• The hair is reusable

• The quality stays high—as long as you treat it right

Poor maintenance leads to tangling, dryness, or even shedding. Great aftercare = longer wear time, better results, and happier clients.

Washing & Conditioning Genius Wefts

How often?
Every 1–2 weeks or as needed, depending on product buildup and styling.

Use:
✅ Sulfate-free, alcohol-free shampoo
✅ Moisturizing conditioner and deep conditioner
❌ No harsh sulfates or parabens
❌ No purple shampoo unless diluted (can dry out the hair)

Steps:

1. Detangle hair first with a wide-tooth comb or extension brush.

2. Gently wash in a downward motion—don’t scrub or rub.

3. Condition from mid-shaft to ends—avoid the weft line.

4. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

5. Pat dry with a towel (never twist or rub).

Pro Tip: Always detangle before washing to prevent matting.

Drying & Styling

Let the extensions air dry when possible. If you must use heat:

• Apply a heat protectant every time.

• Keep hot tools under 350°F (180°C).

• Avoid daily heat styling to preserve softness and prevent drying.

Blow-drying? Use a low heat setting and a nozzle attachment. Blow-dry downward to maintain smoothness.

Sleeping with Genius Wefts

• Always brush gently before bed.

• Braid or tie hair into a loose low ponytail or braid.

• Use a silk or satin pillowcase to reduce friction and breakage.

• Never sleep with wet hair—it can cause matting near the wefts.

Swimming & Sun Exposure

• Chlorine and salt water can dry out the extensions.

• If swimming, tie the hair in a braid and wear a swim cap or keep it above water.

• After swimming, rinse hair immediately with fresh water and use a leave-in conditioner.

• Apply a UV protectant spray when exposed to sunlight for long periods.

Reinstall & Reuse Tips

• Genius wefts can be reused for multiple installs (6–8 weeks per wear).

• Clean and store unused wefts in a dry, cool place.

• Always let a professional reinstall—wefts should never be pulled out or reinstalled at home.

Haiyi Hair Genius Wefts are durable and designed for repeated use—when treated right, they hold their shape, color, and softness beautifully.
