How to Perform Bleach
For Curly and Wavy Units: Occasionally the perm process may cause the cuticles to become flat. Therefore, your unit may or may not need a bleach bath prior to wearing. If you wear the unit, and notice that it is tangling at the nape or in any other area, then do the bleach bath to detangle and prevent future tangling.
For Straight or Yaki Units: After a few washes, your cuticles may become flat. Therefore if you notice tangling or need to soften your Yaki hair, you can use the bleach bath to detangle, soften and restore the hair.
Bleach
For the severely tangled/mangled unit that you believe there is no help for:....
The following process is identical to the one commonly used by professionals in the hair replacement industry for detangling most human hair systems.
Although it is a relatively simple process, if executed improperly, may result in permanent damage to your hair system.
You Will Need:
Large sink with access to hot water.
At least 2 gallons of hot tap water.
2 oz. of Clorox™ bleach (must be Clorox™ brand).
2 oz. of regular household ammonia.
Wide tooth comb or brush (Vent Brush).
Instructions:
Step 1: Setup for Clorox™ Scrub
Draw one gallon of hot tap water into the sink. Next, pour the 2 oz. of Clorox™ bleach into the sink with the hot tap water.
Finally, place the tangled hair into the water carefully and begin the next step promptly.
CAUTION: DO NOT allow the hair to be in contact with the Clorox™ & hot water mixture for more than 2 mintures!
Step 2: Clorox™ Tangle Scrub....
Clorox has a ph of like 11.5 and Ammonia is like 10. These are bases which causes the cuticles to flatten.
Using the wide tooth comb or vent brush, gently brush through the hair from top to bottom. Concentrate on the most tangled and knotted area of the hair.
The tangles should come out while brushing and the hair will become silky. Be careful NOT to brush more than 2 minutes while the hair system is in the Clorox™ mixture.
Step 3: Rinse Hair System
Drain the Clorox™ and hot water from the sink. Then begin to thoroughly rinse warm water through the hair system. While rinsing, keep the weft of the hair facing up. This will prevent the hair from inverting and tangling again.
Step 4: Ammonia Scrub
Draw another gallon of hot tap water into the sink. Pour the 2 oz. of ammonia into the sink with the hot tap water. Place hair in sink.
Start brushing the hair system again, same as before. Use a wide tooth or vent brush and gently comb hair for 1-2 minutes.
Step 5: Final Rinse
Drain the ammonia and hot water from the sink. Then begin to thoroughly rinse warm water through the hair system again. Remember, while rinsing keep the weft of the hair facing up.
After the final rinse, your hair replacement system should be silky smooth and tangle free.
