Best Brush for Hair Extensions
Quick answer: Use a looped or soft-bristle brush made for extensions, not a stiff round brush or a cheap comb that snags the capsules. Hold your hair at the roots and brush from the ends upward, clearing the tangles there first, so you never pull on the bonds. Brush at least twice a day, and before washing, to prevent tangling.

Which brush should I use?
A looped brush or a soft-bristle extension brush glides through the hair without catching the bonds, so the capsules stay put. Avoid stiff round brushes and cheap combs, which snag at the capsules and tug them loose over time. A brush made for extensions is a small tool that protects an expensive set.
How should I brush extended hair?
Hold your hair at the roots with one hand to take the tension off the bonds. Start brushing at the ends, clear the tangles there, then work upward in sections. Never drag a brush from the roots down through knots.
How often should I brush?
Brush at least morning and night, and always before washing. Extended hair tangles more where your own hair sheds at the root and gathers around the bonds, so regular gentle brushing keeps mats from forming there. A minute or two each time is enough, as long as you hold the roots and work from the ends up.

- an approach where each bond is sized to your hair density and set without tension, so your hair grows healthy and the work carries a written guarantee.
What does real hair extension work in Dubai look like?
Real clients in my studio, not stock photos: every frame is taken right after the fitting, with no retouching of volume. Swipe through results on Premium Slavic hair with invisible bonds and look at the hairline and the parting, where cheap extensions give themselves away first.
How do the bonds look and move up close?
Short vertical clips of the process and real results, so you can see how the bonds look and move before you book. The videos play on tap and have no sound, and the technique they show is the same work you will get in the chair at The H Hotel.
Removal matters as much as fitting. Keratin is made to be dissolved, not ripped, so capsules must never be pulled out at home.
