I recently got extensions for the first time a month ago(Cinderella Hair).  I have been using shampoo/conditioner from cinderella hair that I received as part of my extension package.  I have only had one extension fall out in a month - which I have been told is pretty good, however I feel like my real hair is not getting enough mosturizer and appear to be a bit more brittle and dry.  Currently I don't use any product on my hair after I get out of the shower as I am afraid that it will loosen the bonds.  So when I dry my hair and flat iron it I feel like my own hair is getting damaged as it was already fine to begin with.  Can anyone make recommendations on products that can be used (deep conditioner, heat protecting styling products)that will not loosen the hair extension bonds but continue to treat and keep my real hair strong and healthy.  Also if there are other shampoos and conditioners that can be used that will not loosen the bonds but will be better for my natural hair I would welcome those recommendations as well.  Thank you in advance for any insight!!

A lot of girls seem to use the types of products they did before extensions - the key is being careful not to let it near the bonds. Even using regular conditioner seems to be fine for a lot of people if you just do the ends of your hair where it is the dryest.

Thanks for the reply.  I have bonds all throughout my hair 100+.  My real hair is not very long and it is layered so this makes it very challenging to apply product to my real hair without getting close to the bonds.  I really need to use products that will not damage the bonds.  Thanks though for your comments.  flgal0072007-02-22 14:39:11
