Why have hair extensions?
Hair extensions are fun, affordable and will give you thicker, fuller, longer and natural looking hair. Hair extensions also give you protection for growing out damaged hair.
This is my first time, what do I do?
You will first make an appointment for a consultation, this is free of charge and you will be advised on how the extensions will be applied, you will also decide between you and the technician the best hair and colour for you. A £100 deposit will be required to order the hair with the rest being payable on the day your extensions are fitted. You will also be advised on preparation and aftercare. Finally you will be told the cost of the extensions.
Can I mix colours?
Mixing colours is an excellent idea. Most people naturally have more than one colour in their hair, so blending colours will give a more natural look. Extensions are also a great way to add highlights or chunks of colour without chemically treating your own hair.
Is it real hair?
Yes the hair used is 100% real human remy hair.
Will extensions damage my hair?
The most important part of ensuring damage does not occur after the fitting of hair extensions is the maintenance and aftercare of the extensions. You should be provided with aftercare advice at the end of your first fitting.
How long should they last?
3 months is the maximum you should wear the extensions for, however they can be removed and refitted/repositioned. The same hair can also be reused as long as you are happy with the condition of the hair.
Can I brush, curl, blowdry, straighten and wash the hair?
Yes you can do all of the above. Using a heat protection spray will help prevent damage to the hair.
Can I remove hair extensions myself?
It is highly recommended that you book an appointment with your trained technician to remove your hair extensions. If removed by an untrained person this can result in damage to the natural hair.
Why does there seem to be so much hair shedding when removing my hair extensions?
Your natural hair sheds on a daily basis as part of the natural process. It is normal to loose up to 50 hairs a day! Just because hair extensions are fitted does not mean this natural process stops. So the hairs that are shed are trapped in the micro rings and are released when you remove the micro rings.
Can I swim and go into the sea?
You can swim in swimming pools and the sea, however it is best to wash your hair straight after any of these as it is more likely to take the moisture from the hair therefore causing tangling so you could use a spray in conditioner to help with this.
