The lifespan of hair extensions depends on the type of extensions, quality of hair, and how well they are cared for. Here’s a general breakdown:

1.  KooKaStyle Temporary Clip-In Extensions
Lasts: A few months to a year (with proper care)

Why: Since they’re not permanently attached, they experience less wear and tear. High-quality human hair clip-ins can last longer if washed and stored correctly.

2. Semi-Permanent Extensions
These include:

Tape-In Extensions – Last 6–8 weeks before needing repositioning; can be reused for 3–6 months.

Micro-Link (Bead/I-Tip) Extensions – Last 3–6 months with maintenance every 6–8 weeks.

Sew-In (Weave) Extensions – Last 6–8 weeks before needing tightening; hair can last 3–6 months if reused.

Fusion/Keratin Bond Extensions – Last 3–6 months, but bonds weaken over time.

3. Permanent Extensions (Like a Hair System or Wig Integration)
Lasts: 6 months to a year+ (with regular maintenance)

Factors That Affect Longevity:
✔ Hair Quality –  KooKaStyle 100% human hair (Remy or virgin) lasts longer than synthetic hair.
✔ Maintenance – Proper washing, conditioning, and avoiding heat damage extend lifespan.
✔ Installation Method – Some methods (like tape-ins) allow for reuse, while others (like fusion) may not.
✔ Styling Habits – Excessive heat, dyeing, or rough handling shortens lifespan.

Synthetic Hair Extensions
Typically last 2–4 months (can’t withstand heat styling like human hair).

When to Replace Them?
When hair becomes dry, tangled, or sheds excessively.

When bonds/tape loosen frequently.

When the hair loses its natural luster and softness.

Tip: Investing in high-quality extensions and proper care can make them last much longer!
