How to Store Bundles Between Installs

What you do with your bundles between installs matters almost as much as how you care for them while they're in. After 21 years storing and reusing quality hair, here's how to protect your investment between wears.

PART ONE: Cleaning Before Storage

Never store bundles dirty. Wash thoroughly to remove product buildup, deep condition, and detangle fully — wet hair, firm grip near the weft, brushing from ends up toward the root — before putting hair away.

PART TWO: Drying and Packaging

  • Dry completely — any trapped moisture risks mildew and odor over time
  • Lay flat or loosely coil — avoid tight folding that creates permanent creases
  • Use a breathable bag — silk or mesh storage bags protect texture better than sealed plastic

PART THREE: Where and How to Store

Factor Best Practice
Location Cool, dry place out of direct sunlight
Container Breathable bag, not airtight plastic
Position Flat or loosely coiled, never tightly folded
Duration Check and air out every few months for long-term storage
"The bundles that hold up best between installs are the ones treated like an investment, not a leftover. Proper storage really is that simple."

BOTTOM LINE

Clean, dry, and breathable storage protects your bundles between installs and sets you up for a smooth reinstallation whenever you're ready to wear them again.
