Why are my hair extensions turning orange and pink?

If you’ve noticed your hair extensions developing an orange or pink hue, don’t panic! This is usually caused by hard water and face products with SPF, particularly sunscreens and moisturizers. These products contain ingredients that can react with your extensions, leading to unwanted discoloration.

How to Prevent Discoloration

  • Avoid Contact with SPF Products: When applying sunscreen or moisturizers, ensure your hair is clipped away and wash your hands thoroughly before touching your extensions.

  • Be Cautious in the Shower: Hard water, which contains minerals like iron and copper, can also lead to discoloration. Installing a special shower filter or hose can help soften the water and protect your extensions.

  • Take Extra Care When Traveling: If you’re going abroad, the water composition may be different. Carrying preventative products will help maintain your extensions.

How to Fix Discolored Hair Extensions

If your extensions do turn orange or pink, don’t worry—it’s an easy fix! Simply wash your hair using Malibu C Hard Water Sachets to remove mineral buildup and restore your hair to its original shade.

Final Tip

Keep a few Malibu C Hard Water Sachets handy, especially if you’re traveling to a place with hard water. This way, you can quickly and effectively refresh your extensions and keep them looking flawless!
