Nighttime Hair Routine for Extensions and Color
A consistent nighttime hair routine is essential for maintaining healthy hair, long-lasting extensions, and vibrant color. Proper care before bed reduces friction, prevents tangling, and helps preserve your results between salon visits.
At Fabi Pro Beauty, we always educate our clients on simple habits that make a big difference.
Brush Your Hair Before Bed
Always gently detangle your hair before sleeping, starting from the ends and working your way up. This helps prevent knots, reduces tension at the roots, and minimizes stress on hair extensions.
Brushing before bed also distributes natural oils evenly, keeping your hair smoother and healthier.
Secure Hair with a Silk Scrunchie
After brushing, loosely secure your hair in a braid or low ponytail using a silk or satin scrunchie. Avoid tight styles, which can cause tension and unnecessary pulling on extensions.
This step reduces friction while you sleep and helps maintain smooth ends.
Sleep on a Silk or Satin Pillowcase
A silk or satin pillowcase helps reduce frizz, breakage, and moisture loss. Unlike cotton, silk creates less friction, allowing your hair to glide smoothly throughout the night.
This is especially important for color-treated hair and extensions, which tend to dry out more easily.
Apply a Lightweight Serum to the Ends
Before bed, apply a small amount of lightweight serum or hair oil to the mid-lengths and ends. This adds moisture, enhances shine, and helps prevent dryness — particularly important for extensions and bleached hair.
Avoid applying product near the roots or extension bonds.
