Summer in Washington: How to Protect Your Invisible Bead Extensions

Summer in Washington might be all about mountain hikes, lake days, and dreamy sunsets, but your extensions still need a little extra love to stay looking their best. Whether you're heading to the coast or just enjoying a patio brunch, here’s how to care for your Invisible Bead Extensions (IBE) during the warmer months.

1. Hydration is everything

Sun and heat can dry out your extensions quickly. A weekly deep conditioning mask like the Goldie Locks Ultra Hydrating Hair Mask keeps your ends soft and silky.

2. Braid before bed

Wind, heat, and lake hair can leave your extensions tangled. Sleeping in a loose braid helps prevent knots and reduces friction on your wefts.

3. Use UV + heat protectants

The Goldie Locks Leave-In Conditioner and a salon-quality Heat Protectant are must-haves for summer styling. Spray them on damp hair before heading outside to prevent fading and dryness.

swimming, braid your hair, wear a protective cap, or keep it dry when possible.
