Clip-in extensions transform your looks through added volume and length, but with Cashmere Hair extensions being made of 100% Remy Human hair, they handle heat styling very well under careful and specific conditions. Professional heat application techniques combined with correct temperature levels will enable you to create beautiful hairstyles that maintain the freshness and protection of your extensions.

Best Heat Settings for Clip-in Extensions 

Since extensions lack direct nourishment from your scalp, you need to take additional care when applying heat to them. The prevention of heat damage starts with operating your styling tools at their lowest safe temperature setting and stretching contact duration.

Straightening: The best temperature for flat-iron straightening results should be 330°F and below. A temperature setting at this level enables straightening without causing any extra damage to the hair.


Curling: You should increase the temperature of your tools slightly to 350°F when you want to create perfect curls because they require a stronger hold. Heat levels above 400°F can result in weakening the hair and shortening lifespan with dryness and breakage.

Tips for Heat Styling Extensions Safely 

These professional tips will help your clip-in extensions maintain their best appearance for extended periods:

Use a Heat Protectant: It's so vital to apply a lightweight heat protectant spray as your first step to create a protective barrier to safeguard the hair.


Limit Heat Exposure: When using heated styling tools minimize their contact time to a few seconds while you should prevent repetitive passes on the same section.


Avoid Frequent Heat Styling: Your extensions will last longer when you limit your use of heat styling by choosing heatless hairstyle options such as braiding wet extensions overnight or using foam rollers.


Proper temperature selection alongside proper techniques enables you to achieve beautiful extension looks while maintaining their quality. Proper maintenance of your luxury Cashmere Hair clip-in extensions will maintain their ability to create flawless hairstyles which you can use multiple times.
