Although summer is almost over, that doesn’t mean your suitcases and weekend bags have to suddenly collect dust in the wardrobe for the rest of the year. There’s still plenty of time for trips away, whether that’s for business, pleasure, or simply to top up your tan. While you’re on the go, it’s important to care for your hair extensions like you would for your natural hair, that’s why hairstylists and extension enthusiasts everywhere are using our brand new multipurpose Hair Extension Hanger and Carrier to ensure no harm comes to their precious locks. If you want to keep your clip in extensions or permanent hair extensions safe while on the move, we’ve got all the top tips you need – you’ll want to ‘hang’ around for this one!
How Do You Pack Hair Extensions For Travel?
Whether you’re a hairstylist on your way to a shoot at Paris Fashion Week or are desperate to keep your tresses in smooth, silky condition while you’re on the plane to a girls trip in Ibiza, the question on everyone’s lips is: how do you pack hair extensions for travel without causing a complete mess? A hair extension bag and hanger is the ultimate solution!
Our Hair Extension Carrier and Hanger is comprised of a protective material to keep your locks away from the nastiness of dust, damp or heat. Durable, reliable and made from a mixture of strong and gentle fabrics, both products are absolutely essentials, and staples for any globetrotter hairstylist.
How To Use A Hair Extension Hanger and Carrier
Hair extension hangers and carriers are designed to keep your extensions secure and tangle-free. Our hanger is wooden and soft-lined ensuring durability and a gentle hold on extensions seams, while our carrier is stylish and clear, providing easy visibility and protection. The carrier’s satin lining also prevents frizz and friction, guaranteeing a luxurious extra form of protection. Ideal for all hair extension types, these products are perfect for both storage and travel, allowing you to keep your extensions in pristine condition and away from dust, moisture and damage. Here’s how to use them effectively:
Firstly, make sure you brush your hair extensions gently with our The Wet One Detangling Hairbrush to remove any tangles before storing. Release the clip and open the hanger. Neatly lay the extensions in flat rows keeping the extension clips above the edge of the hanger. Close the hanger and resecure the clip, ensuring the extensions are firmly held in place without slipping. Slide the hanger into the carrier and pull the hanging hook through the opening at the top of the carrier case. Zip the carrier closed to protect your hair extensions from dust, moisture, and tangling. Hang the carrier in your wardrobe, lie it flat in a drawer, place it in a suitcase or store it away in a cool, dry place. For hygiene and aftercare, make sure to wipe both the hanger and carrier clean with a damp cloth as needed.

Packing and Styling Tips
Travel In Style
Before you’re off on your holibobs or work trip, we advise washing, drying and styling your extensions to save you time when you arrive at your destination. That way, you can apply your clip in extensions or install your client’s professional hair extensions without any added fuss. If packed correctly, your hair extension carrier will also prevent your locks from getting messy, removing the burden of detangling and restyling them throughout your break away or while your client is in the chair.
Less Is More
Sometimes, less is more – even when it comes to luscious, full-bodied hair. We’ve all been guilty of overpacking at some point in your lives, so to save yourself room in your suitcase or bag, it might be worth just bringing one form of heated styling tool. For example, if you plan on curling or restyling clip in hair extensions, a pair of high-quality straighteners can easily double up as a curling iron, removing the need to bring multiple tools. Human hair extensions do not react well to excessive amounts of heat, so the less amount of styling tools and different techniques used, the better! Go the extra mile by protecting your tresses with our heat protection spray.

Heat Protection Spray
Sometimes, you may not always want to wear a hat or headscarf when it’s super sunny outside. Although the right trucker hat or satin head piece can be stylish, it’s not always practical or flattering depending on what you’re doing or wearing. However, protecting your hair and scalp from the sun’s rays is still a number one priority, that’s why we’ve created our best-selling Heat Protection Spray. This miracle spray creates an invisible barrier between your hair and heat up to 230 degrees celsius for worry and sunburn-free styling. Our heat protectant also helps to rebuild hair from within by reconnecting damaged disulphide sulphur bonds, removing frizz and maintaining an overall softer look and feel.
