Styling and Maintenance Guide
Your crown deserves care. Here’s how to keep it flawless.
Crown & Silk hair is crafted to last — but just like your natural hair, it thrives when treated with love, attention, and intention.
Explore our care tips below based on your hair type. Whether you wear raw bundles, virgin hair, or clip-ins, this guide helps you keep your look luxurious for longer.
RAW HAIR CARE
Unprocessed. Untamed. Unapologetically real.
Raw hair is 100% natural human hair — no steam processing, no chemicals, just full cuticle-aligned strands with all their natural character. That means you get premium quality, but also the responsibility to care for it like your own.
Daily Maintenance
Gently detangle with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers, starting at the ends and working your way up.
Apply a light, water-based leave-in conditioner or moisturising spray to keep the hair hydrated.
Avoid heavy oils or product buildup — raw hair responds best to lightweight care.
Washing Routine
Wash every 2–3 weeks with sulfate-free, moisturising shampoo.
Follow with a deep conditioner or hair mask, especially after heat styling.
Rinse with cool water to seal the cuticles and add shine.
Styling Tips
You can straighten, curl, or wave your raw hair — always use a heat protectant.
Air drying is best. If using heat, keep it moderate.
Limit bleaching/colouring, and have it done professionally to maintain integrity.
At Night
Wrap your hair in a silk or satin bonnet or sleep on a satin pillowcase.
Braid or twist the hair loosely to avoid tangling.
Pro tip: Think of raw hair like your own — it tells the truth. The better you care for it, the longer and better it performs (up to 3+ years).
VIRGIN HAIR CARE
Soft. Silky. Made to move with ease.
Virgin hair is gently steam-processed to give it a consistent texture, making it easier to manage while still maintaining that luxurious, natural feel.
Daily Maintenance
Use a detangling brush or wide-tooth comb to prevent knots.
Apply a lightweight leave-in or a small amount of argan oil for shine.
Avoid excessive product — virgin hair retains its look with minimal styling.
Washing Routine
Wash every 2–3 weeks or as needed, using sulfate-free shampoo.
Condition generously. Let conditioner sit for 10–15 minutes.
Rinse with cool water and air dry when possible.
Styling Tips
Virgin hair can be curled, straightened, and styled freely.
Always use heat protection and avoid high temperatures.
Coloring is possible, but stick to a professional colorist.
At Night
Wrap hair or use a satin bonnet/scarf to retain moisture and style.
Brush through lightly before bed.
Pro tip: Virgin hair offers luxury and simplicity — perfect for queens who want consistency without high-maintenance routines.
CLIP-IN EXTENSIONS CARE
Versatile. Quick. Effortlessly royal.
Clip-ins are your best friend when you want volume, length, or a full transformation — instantly. Whether raw or virgin, clip-ins need proper care to stay flawless.
Before Applying
Brush each weft gently to remove tangles.
Part your hair where you want the clips placed — usually starting at the nape and moving upward.
Snap clips open and secure them flat against the scalp for best hold.
Washing Routine
Only wash clip-ins after every 8–10 wears or when product buildup is visible.
Use a sulfate-free shampoo and follow with a moisturizing conditioner.
Lay flat or hang to air dry — avoid blow drying.
Styling Tips
Use heat tools sparingly and always apply heat protectant.
Avoid heavy products, which can cause buildup and affect the clip hold.
Storage
Store your clip-ins in a silk or satin bag or laid flat in their original packaging.
Keep them detangled and dry.
Pro tip: Treat your clip-ins with the same care as your bundles — the better you store and maintain them, the longer they’ll stay flawless and ready to slay.
