Styling hair extensions requires a delicate touch, especially when using heat tools like hairdryers. The ORENDA AeroFusion Pro offers advanced settings that make it easier to dry, blow, and curl extensions without causing damage. Here’s a complete guide to drying and styling your extensions with the ORENDA.
Safety First: Prepping with the ORENDA AeroFusion Pro
Before we dive into styling tips, let’s start with some essential safety measures to protect both your extensions and yourself when using the ORENDA AeroFusion Pro:
-
Select the Right Heat and Speed Setting: Extensions are sensitive to high heat. For best results, use a low to medium heat setting, and a low-speed option to avoid excessive force that could lead to tangling.
-
Avoid Direct Contact with the Heating Element: Keep the hairdryer at least a few inches away from your hair to prevent overheating, which can damage the cuticles of the extensions.
-
Use an Appropriate Nozzle Attachment: Always use a concentrator nozzle when blow-drying extensions. This helps direct airflow and reduces frizz.
-
Section Your Extensions: Sectioning allows for more precise drying and styling, minimizing unnecessary exposure to heat.
Step-by-Step Guide to Drying Hair Extensions
Drying hair extensions is a crucial step to avoid frizz and extend the life of your extensions. Here’s how to get the best results with the ORENDA:
-
Towel Dry Gently: After washing, gently squeeze out excess water with a soft towel. Avoid rough towel drying, as it can lead to breakage.
-
Detangle Carefully: Use a wide-tooth comb to detangle your hair extensions from ends to roots. This helps in preventing breakage and makes the drying process easier.
-
Apply a Heat Protectant: Spritz a heat protectant evenly over your extensions. This is essential for keeping your hair safe from heat damage.
-
Blow-Dry in Sections: Divide the extensions into sections and dry one section at a time. Start from the roots and work your way to the ends to ensure an even and smooth finish.
-
Finish with a Cool Shot: Once each section is dry, use the ORENDA’s cool shot setting. This will help set the style and add shine.
Achieving Gorgeous Curls with Your Extensions
Creating curls with hair extensions can add volume and dimension to your look. Here’s how to do it effectively with the ORENDA HairdryerAeroFusion Pro:
-
Use a Diffuser for Natural Waves: Attach the diffuser to create natural waves. Work on damp sections, scrunching them upward as you dry.
-
Opt for Velcro Rollers: For heatless waves, wrap sections around Velcro rollers. Set them with the hairdryer on a low heat setting, then allow them to cool completely before removing.
-
Create Curls with a Round Nozzle: For a nice curly look, use a round nozzle to twist sections while drying. Roll from the tip of the hair to the root and let it stay for about 5 sec. Turn on Cool Shot for 5 sec pressing the air temperature button. This technique adds a gentle curls and keeps extensions looking voluminous and healthy.
