    Yes, I've seen that product @ Sally's & for regular hair too. I actually was going thru that w/my own hair

    Amazed you posted this, b/c I took a couple of wigs to my stylist yesterday to have them shaped better for my features, and he told me the exact same thing! Between the two of you, I'm sold. Going to check out Sally's online now. :-)

Then I would wash them, and it would just make everything worse. I would brush them all out, put them in, and if I even moved, they would turn into a matted bird's nest! I tried everything to make my extensions last longer but I couldn't get anything to work. I would just go spend $150 on a new set every 2-3 months.
    I always used salon brand shampoo and conditioners on them, (only washing about once a month or so) but this last time I thought that I would try the shampoo and conditioner for extensions. DUH!!!!
    I went to Sally's and tried the Miracle 7 brand Detangling Shampoo for Extensions, Deep Conditioner for Extensions, and the Leave in Mist for Extensions.
    Holy moley, my extensions are transformed! Yesterday my hair looked like a giant tangled fluff ball, and today it is silky and shiny. I just wanted to share this awesome new discovery with you guys in case anyone else is going through the same frustrations I have had!
    Since I changed brands( because my other companies became too thin for my hair) this is my exact problem. I've been using the sensual brand (I'm on my 5th pair in 6 months) and I can't get more than 15 wears out of them. I bought the devine pair that were 50 more and they were worse than the cheaper ones. When I wash mine they do look good again but after like 2 wears they're like you said after you move around a few hours I look in the mirror when I'm doing a dance and they're a tangled mess. Please update if this really prolongs

    Good because I just spent 180 on another pair today because my last pair are at 15 wears and I'm going to be gone a while and I don't think I'll get more than 5 more wears out of these. I'll go buy the stuff when I'm out of town of it works to prolong the others so I don't have to use the new ones yet.

    Well, this may not be helpful, but I've been using http://African-Pride.com braid spray, can be used on extensions. I used it on my own hair, but reading the label, that's what it says

    Thanks Aperfectseal for the info - I just ordered it & can't wait to try it!
    In the meantime I bought Cinderella Hair ext. shampoo & conditioner from Sally's to use since it was all they had. If it's any good I'll post but this Miracle7 sounds awesome.

    Update on Cinderella Hair ext. Shampoo & Conditioner:
    It didn't do anything much more different than my regular shampoo. The ends of my extensions were kind of dry and a little bit tangly which is the same result I get with normal shampoo.

    I have Babe tape-in extensions and got the Miracle 7 for extensions after reading this thread. I only wash my hair twice a week, this stuff is amazing! My extensions feel and look fantastic and smell great. I use the leave in conditioner daily before I heat style it. It's even great on my natural hair, it actually blends better with my extensions than it did before. I highly recommend this to anyone with extensions!

    Ok. Just washed my extensions with this stuff. I've worn them 30 times( so I get a lot of wear out of this pair and they are done) don't like the smell( reeks like old lady, way too flowery. My extensions were still knotty had to really comb through them then sprayed that leave in stuff in. I'll report back if it extends them. I've been spraying pureoloogy 21 color fanatic in after I wash and cond and that's been helping a lot. This looks like it may have faded the color a bit. Will see tomorrow...

    Try this one^..I also use Jane Carter Solution spray leave in conditioner. It doesn't say for extensions, but it's good for colored hair, & protects from the sun & heat styling

    if you need to freshen up extensions try oil (jojoba is best, but something like almond oil works too) just over the driest bits. Go really lightly, you don't want them to be thick and greasy.

    Also - this was something I learned from costume, studying wig and extension styling - use steam. If you have a garment steamer use that but an iron with a steam attachment works as long as you ONLY use the steam not the actual iron. Just comb through the extensions really gently a little bit at a time and run the steam through as you do then leave them to dry. It works to refresh synthetic wigs but it also works really well on human hair extensions Just makes them a bit shinier and gives them more life. I wouldn't do this every time you wear them though, more once or twice a month at most.

    Yeah. I'm taking this stuff back. I got 2 wears out of them and their in knots again. I mean what can they really add that other shampoo/conditioners don't have. It's hair not attached to your head when it's done it's done. Good thing I have another pair with me.

    I know it's kinda gross, but I barely wash mine. I find that the washing in itself makes them tangly..
