How Sunglasses Impact Your Extensions- Are you Accidentally Sabotaging Your Gorgeous Hair?

Ladies, let’s talk about a sneaky little habit most of us are guilty of—flipping our sunglasses up onto our heads. It’s second nature, right? But if you’re rocking extensions, this could be the hair equivalent of wearing heels two sizes too small—cute in theory, but ouch in practice. 

Here’s the deal: sliding your sunnies up onto your head can snag on sewn-in wefts. Over time, this pulling and tension can cause wefts to slip, create scalp irritation, or even cause premature plucking  (we know, heartbreak emoji-worthy). Think of it as the hair version of catching your favorite sweater on a ring—just no. 

So what’s the fix? Pop them back into that cute little case and drop them in your bag. Bonus: it keeps your extensions laying flat and your scalp happy.

Remember, your hair is an investment—treat it like the VIP it is. Nobody’s got time for wonky wefts popping out when you’re busy running the world. Beyoncé wouldn’t stand for it, and neither should you. 💁‍♀️

The Fix: Keeping Your Sunglasses and Extensions on Good Terms 

Good news—you don’t have to choose between your favorite sunnies and keeping your extensions flawless. With these easy tweaks, you can protect your hair and keep your style game strong. Here’s how: 

1. Chat With Your Stylist

Your stylist is your hair’s best friend—and yours too when it comes to solving little dilemmas like this.  An expert extension artist can adjust the placement of your wefts—whether it’s moving them up or down—so they don’t interfere with your accessories. We can even demo how you put on your sunglasses to customize the fit perfectly. At Kindred, we’re all about finding solutions that match your vibe and lifestyle.

2. Rethink How You Rock Your Sunnies 

Rather than perching your sunglasses on your head (we’ve all been there), try clipping them to your shirt or neckline instead. It’s a simple, stylish move that gives off that effortlessly cool “just grabbed a coffee in town” vibe. And let’s not forget—the chic sunglasses you picked up came with an equally charming case, perfect for keeping them safe and scratch-free!

With these easy tips, you can totally pull off your sunglasses and extensions stress-free. Style and hair in sync? You’ve got it!
