One of the most common questions people ask before buying feather hair extensions is:
Can I wash my hair with them and can I swim with them ?
The answer is yes!
Unlike temporary clip-in accessories, Amazira feather hair extensions are attached using small silicone-lined micro beads, allowing you to wear them continuously for weeks or even months.
That means you can wash, brush, style, and enjoy your hair just like normal.
Natural feather extensions also can be worn while swimming.
After swimming in chlorine or salt water, simply rinse your hair with fresh water and allow the feathers to dry naturally

Can You Brush Your Hair?
Yes.
Brush your hair as usual while being gentle around the micro beads.
Using a soft brush or detangling brush helps prevent unnecessary pulling and keeps both your hair and the feathers looking their best.
Can You Curl or Straighten Feather Extensions?
The answer is yes!
One of the advantages of natural rooster feather hair extensions is that they can be styled with heat.
You can:
- Curl your hair
- Straighten your hair
- Blow dry your hair
- Style it just like you normally would
For the longest lifespan, avoid holding very high heat directly on the feathers for an extended period.
Can You Sleep with Feather hair extensions
Yes.
Because the extensions are attached with silicone-lined micro beads, they are designed to stay in your hair day and night.
There's no need to remove them before sleeping.
Many customers wear them continuously for months.
How Long Do Feather Hair Extensions Last?
With proper care, feather hair extensions typically last 2 to 6 months, depending on your hair growth and daily routine.
Since your natural hair grows, the micro beads will gradually move away from the scalp over time.
Many people simply reposition the feather higher up instead of replacing it.
Tips to Keep Your Feather Extensions Looking Beautiful
✔ Wash your hair normally
✔ Brush gently around the micro beads
✔ Use moderate heat when styling
✔ Avoid pulling directly on the feathers
✔ Store any unused feathers flat and dry
With just a little care, your feather hair extensions can stay beautiful for months.
You will need a bead, some feathers and a flat plier.
Step 1: Feed the bead through the threader.
Step 2: Choose a thin piece of hair where you will want the feather.
Step 3: Feed the piece of hair through the loop of the threader.
Step 4: Slide the bead down and pull the hair out of the bead.
Step 5: Slide the feathers through the bead.
Step 6: With the help of flat pliers flatten the bead.
Tips for the Best Results
-
Use a small section of hair for the most secure fit.
-
Hide the bead under the top layer of hair for a seamless finish.
-
Mix different feather lengths and colours for a natural, bohemian look.
-
Feather extensions can be washed, brushed, curled, and straightened just like your own hair.
