Bohyme Journal · The next day matters too
Before leaving your hair extension appointment, ask for a record of the Bohyme hair used, a care demonstration and a follow-up plan. A clear handover makes the finished style easier to care for at home and gives you a reliable contact when you have questions.
Keep a record of what you are wearing
Ask the salon to record the Bohyme collection, product construction, texture, full shade code and length. Where the design uses several shades or products, keep those details separate rather than reducing the description to a single color name.
It is also useful to know the name of the attachment approach used and who to contact about it. Product construction and installation method are related, but they are not always the same label.
This information gives future care, adjustment and replacement conversations a clear starting point. You do not need to memorize every detail; you need a reliable record you can refer to.
Ask to see the routine, not only hear it
“Brush carefully” is less useful than a demonstration of where to support the hair, how to separate it and how to work around the actual attachments. Ask the installer to show these movements, then talk through the parts you will repeat at home.
Discuss the tools and products you already own. Ask which are suitable, where each product belongs and which areas should be avoided. A recommendation should identify its role in the routine rather than leave you with an unexplained shopping list.
For the underlying guidance, review Bohyme's human hair extension care guide. Your installer should explain how it applies to the specific service you have received.
Walk through the first wash and first night
Confirm when the installer wants you to wash after the service and what the first wash should involve. Ask how to reach the scalp, rinse thoroughly and dry around the attachments. Do not borrow a waiting period from a different method.
Remove clip-ins and halo pieces before sleeping. For installed extensions, ask how to prepare fully dry hair for bed and which loose arrangement suits your attachment method. The instructions should name the format you are wearing.
If exercise, swimming or travel is part of your immediate plans, mention it before leaving. Ask for the relevant routine rather than discovering a gap in the instructions when you are away from the salon.
Understand the finished style
Ask which steps created the salon finish and which are optional. A polished curl pattern may be a styling choice rather than the extension's underlying texture. Knowing the difference helps set realistic expectations for your own routine.
Review the hair in the everyday arrangements discussed at the consultation. Ask the stylist to demonstrate suitable ways to gather or tuck it, and to explain any limits specific to the installation.
Record the next maintenance appointment or the process for booking it. The timing should come from the professional's assessment of your service, not a general interval copied from someone else's post. See the distinction between hair lifespan and maintenance.
Your final five questions
- What exact hair and attachment approach am I wearing?
- Can you demonstrate the brushing, washing and drying routine?
- How should I prepare the hair for sleep and my normal activities?
- When is my follow-up, and what does that appointment include?
- Who should I contact if something changes or I am unsure?
Ask how the salon would like you to describe a concern and whether a clear photograph would help. Do not attempt to move or remove attachments yourself to resolve uncertainty. A clear contact route is part of a complete handover.
What should I do with leftover hair?
Ask the installer to label it and explain appropriate storage. Keep the product information with it rather than assuming that an unmarked piece will be easy to identify later.
Can I ask for the instructions in writing?
Yes. Written product details and care notes make it easier to follow the agreed plan and ask precise questions afterward.
