Professional Hair Extensions Specialist
I am a fully qualified and insured hair technician
specialising in different methods of hair extensions, having
been trained by one of the country's most experienced and
professional extensionists
at Extendhair.
Hair extensions give you the opportunity to volumise and extend
the length of your hair as well as creating high lights or a
splash of colour to your hair without the use of harsh
chemicals. You can completely change your image in just a couple
of hours. Hair extensions blend easily with your own hair to
give a natural look and you can treat them in exactly the same
way you would your own hair. Wear them curly or straight, up or down,
however you wish.
Hair Extension Techniques
Malaysian (weaving technique)
This is a smooth and flat technique with the benefit of no glue,
heat or braids. The track is made by using your own hair and a
particular weaving technique. A hair weft is then sewn onto this
track making it flat against the head in an unnoticeable manner
and adding length and thickness. This is a great technique for
people with fine/thinning hair and will last you 6-8 weeks.
Micro ring weft
This is a technique that is applied very close to the scalp,
wearing near enough flat against the head. The weft is held in
place using micro rings or bonds which are left invisible to be
seen. The technique will last you 6-8 weeks before then needing
to be removed and re-applied re-using hair.
Micro rings
This is a popular strand by strand technique without the use of
glue, heat or braids. The extensions are attached using a
small ring which is then clamped flat with a special clamping
tool. All of the micro rings are silicone lined leaving the hair
protected. This method is great for creating high/low lights,
Thickness and length and will last you 3 months.
Pre-Bonded
This method is very similar to fusion but is quicker in
application due to the extension hair having resin (glue)
already applied to the ends. Pre-bonded is practical to create
body and length, highlights or streaks of colour. However some
shedding may occur with this method and will require a
maintenance every 4 weeks but will last you 3 months.
Both fusion and pre-bonded methods are practical to create body
and length, highlights or streaks of colour. However Some
shedding ay occur with these methods
Maintenance
All of these methods will require regular maintenance as the
natural hair grows or loosening and shedding occur. The
frequency of the maintenance will depend on the method of
application chosen.
Quality of hair
All hair used is 100% human hair. I currently use a high grade
of Remi hair that comes in 14, 18 and 22 inch and also comes in
straight, wavy and curly. This hair will last you up around 6
months or so.
I service in the Essex area, working from home in Southend-on-sea.
