Get The Look with Lisa McIntosh

Lisa McIntosh for Neah Lis, who created the look, shares tips on maintaining the look!

Step 1: Wash and condition hair as usual.

NB:
With a fabulous weave hairstyle, we often forget our own hair buried underneath. So treat your weave like you would want to treat your real hair. Extensions can get dry, too! So use the best possible products.

Step 2: Protect hair that is left out!

I have heard so many horror stories of women ‘blow-frying’ or curling their own hair on a daily basis in order for it to blend in with the texture of their weave. If you are wearing a partial weave be sure to protect your own hair that’s left out.

When you need to touch-up with a flat iron or blow dryer, be sure to use a heat protectant.

Step 3: How to style and maintain

Treat your weave like your own hair.

This bob hairstyle may involve blow-drying or using a flat iron for a polished look.

Consider how much time you can dedicate to styling… A bob can be low-maintenance but styling products may be needed for volume and texture.
