Top 3 Mistakes People Make with Hair Extensions (and How to Fix Them) ♡
Don’t ruin the slay — by CandalBeauty
You just dropped hundreds on bundles, got the install, and stepped out ready to serve...
But something’s off. Your hair doesn’t blend, it’s tangling by week two, and it’s not giving the longevity you were promised.
Sound familiar? You’re not alone.
At CandalBeauty, we see it all the time—and 9 times out of 10, it comes down to these common mistakes. Let’s break them down and show you how to fix them so your next install lasts longer, looks better, and feels effortless.
❌ Mistake #1: Not Washing the Hair Before Installing It
We get it—you’re excited to install your bundles ASAP. But raw hair has been sourced, collected, packaged, and shipped. It needs to be properly cleansed and hydrated before it’s installed.
Fix it:
Always wash your bundles before installing
- Use a sulfate-free shampoo + deep conditioner, and let them air dry. This restores the softness, flow, and natural texture of raw hair.
❌ Mistake #2: Using the Wrong Products
Heavy oils, alcohol-based sprays, and low-quality gels can weigh down or damage raw hair. Unlike processed hair, raw bundles don’t have artificial coatings—so what you use matters.
Fix it:
Stick to lightweight, moisture-rich products:
- Use mousse for curls
- Argan or light serum for shine
- Avoid alcohols and silicone-heavy formulas
❌ Mistake #3: Expecting Low-Quality Hair to Perform Like Raw Hair
This is the harsh truth: you can’t buy beauty supply bundles and expect a raw hair experience. If you’re dealing with constant tangling, breakage, or lifeless hair after two installs… it’s not you—it’s the hair.
Fix it:
Invest in 100% raw hair from a trusted vendor (like us!).
- It lasts longer, styles easier, and saves you money in the long run.
+ Bonus Tips for Long-Lasting Bundles:
✔️ Always wrap your hair at night with a satin scarf or bonnet
✔️ Avoid excessive heat and use a protectant if you’re styling
✔️ Shampoo and condition every 1–2 weeks, just like your real hair
