Leaving the scalp damp for long periods of time can lead to irritation, itchiness, excess oil production, and can make your hair feel dirty  and flat faster.

Blow drying the scalp helps:

• Stretch the time between washes by adding volume at the root
• Reduce itching and irritation - although it seems counter-productive, drying your scalp actually keeps it from getting  dry and flaky
• Keep extension rows cleaner and detangled

You don’t always have to fully blow dry your entire hair every time, but taking a few extra minutes to thoroughly dry the scalp can make a huge difference in both scalp comfort and the everyday care  of your extensions.
