How to Prevent Damaged Hair
WASHING
We know they are only few other feelings better than freshly washed hair. But, did you know that there is such thing as over-washing? Yep!

When we're asked how to prevent damaged hair, one of our best tips it's to wash your locks as little as possible. This goes for your hair extensions too! Try keep the shampooing to a minimum and get yourself a good quality dry shampoo for your natural hair to get you through washes.

And for the days you just need to pick up the curling wand, remember to opt for a styling tool with temperature settings! The ZALA Cosmo Wand is our favourite curling tool as you can adjust the heat to suit your hair type or ensure you're styling your extensions safely. Remember, always style your Zala hair extensions on low to medium settings to prevent damage.
BRUSHING
Lastly, brushing. There are a few bad brushing habits you'll have to kick if you're wanting to know how to prevent damaged hair, particularly using the wrong hair brush!
