What is a common sign that extensions need to be removed?

Excessive tangling or discomfort is a definitive sign that hair extensions may need to be removed. When extensions are properly applied and maintained, they should feel comfortable and manageable. However, if the extensions start to tangle frequently or cause physical discomfort, it indicates that they may be too tight, improperly installed, or the underlying hair might be experiencing stress or damage. This situation can lead to further hair loss or scalp irritation if left unaddressed, emphasizing the importance of monitoring the health and condition of both the extensions and the natural hair.

While improved hair growth could be a positive outcome of using extensions, it does not indicate that removal is necessary. Increased shine and softness typically reflect good care and maintenance of the hair and extensions, not a sign for removal. Color fading may suggest a need for touch-ups or maintenance, but it does not inherently mean the extensions should be taken out.
