Make Your Luxury Last with MINK LONDON
At MINK LONDON, we believe luxury is more than how something looks, it’s how long it lasts. Our 100% human hair extensions are made to be reused, reinstalled, and worn with confidence for years. But just like natural hair, proper care is key.
Whether you're wearing raw Indian curls, European silky virgin tape-ins, or our seamless SNAP IN sets, here’s everything you need to know to keep your MINK extensions in pristine condition.
1. Treat Extensions Like Your Own Hair — Only Better
MINK extensions are real human hair — ethically sourced and hand-selected for quality. But because they’re no longer attached to a scalp, they won’t receive natural oils to keep them moisturised. That’s where you come in.
DO:
-
Use a sulphate-free, hydrating shampoo
-
Apply lightweight, silicone-free conditioner mid-length to ends
-
Gently brush from the ends upward using a loop brush or wide-tooth comb
- Treat hair to a high quality hair serum or shine spray for that extra moisture boost.
DON’T:
-
Over-wash (2x per week max is ideal)
-
Use heavy protein treatments too often
-
Tug or sleep with wet hair — always air dry or blow dry on cool
2. Hydration Is Key — But Balance Is Everything
Dryness is the enemy of long-lasting extensions. Keep them hydrated with a lightweight leave-in conditioner or serum, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends — especially after heat styling.
Avoid heavy oils near the tape tabs or SNAP-IN roots, as this can weaken the adhesive or cause slippage.
Pro tip: Try MINK’s upcoming keratin infused hair mist for daily nourishment without buildup. (Launching soon — stay tuned.)
3. Heat Styling — Do It Right
Yes, you can curl, straighten, or wave MINK LONDON hair. But heat should always be used with care.
-
Always apply a heat protectant spray
-
Keep tools under 180°C (350°F)
-
Use a silk or satin wrap after styling to preserve curls overnight
For raw hair: Heat holds beautifully with minimal product — a sign of its premium quality.
4. Sleep Smart
Luxury doesn’t rest — and neither should your routine. Before bed:
-
Gently detangle your hair
-
Braid or wrap it into a loose bun or two chunky plaits
-
Sleep on a silk pillowcase or wear a satin bonnet
This reduces friction, minimises frizz, and helps preserve the hair’s natural texture.
5. Reuse & Reinstall the Right Way
One of the benefits of investing in high-quality extensions like MINK LONDON'S is longevity. With proper care, our raw hair and virgin hair can last 3+ years and be reinstalled multiple times.
For tape-ins:
-
Remove professionally using an alcohol- or keratin-based solution
-
Always replace the tape tabs before reapplying
-
Let your natural hair rest between installs to maintain scalp health-The prefect time to use our SNAP IN extensions if you do not want to go without the length during rest periods!
Final Thoughts from MINK LONDON
Your MINK extensions are an investment — not just in beauty, but in yourself. With the right care, they’ll stay as flawless and luxurious as the day you received them.
Remember: Luxury is in the detail. And your hair deserves nothing less.
