Why Virgin Hair Extensions Should Never Smell of ‘Hair Dye’ After Washing

The Truth Behind What Really Causes It
By Diane Shawe

A quick reminder for anyone who wears human hair extensions 👇

✅ 100% Virgin Remy human hair has never been dyed or chemically treated
✅ It cannot release dye or ammonia unless something has been applied to it after installation (such as bleach, purple shampoo, or chemical-based products)
✅ The first 7 days are critical – extensions should not be washed or disturbed, as this can cause stress on the scalp and slippage

Hair extensions is at its most secure in the first week after application. Attempting to remove, bleach, or aggressively wash it too early can lead to irritation, redness, and even hair loss — not because of the fitting, but because the foundation has been disturbed before it has settled.



As an extension artist who designed the Hook & Latch™ system and has been recognised nationally for excellence in scalp-safe techniques, my number one priority is client safety.

🔒 Protect your hair. Protect your scalp. Always follow aftercare advice and never allow untrained hands to remove extensions prematurely.
