How to find a Extensionist

How to care for your extensions

Q & A

DO YOU HAVE TO BE CERTIFIED OR LICENSED TO PURCHASE HAIR?
Any company that has the high standards and great product will not sell to just anybody. All stylists must be Licensed and
Certified to offer their product/services. I have witnessed and tried hair purchased online and truthfully, you get what you pay for.

DO HAIR EXTENSIONS REQUIRE THAT YOU HAVE SPECIAL PRODUCTS FOR AFTER CARE?
Yes, you must protect your investment. A full line of Shampoo, Conditioner, Repair Spray and Silk Protein. Designed especially
for Extensions.

HOW LONG WILL THE EXTENSIONS LAST?
Depending on the method used. Linking requires maintenance every 4-6 weeks. Fusion extensions will last 4-5 months. It is
suggested to take them out at that time period for several reasons.

WILL EXTENSIONS HARM MY HAIR?
There are several methods available at our studio. Not every method is right for you, that said it is important to have your Extensionist select the best for your hair type.

Fusion: One of the best things is that the bond is natural Keratin. There is absolutely no glue or polywax used. My personal experience is that those types of extensions
are damaging to fine hair. Being that I have fine hair I wouldn't use anything on my clients that I wouldn't use myself. With proper after care and the use of state-of-the-art
professional tools and proper application your hair will not damage. This is a very gentle application and does not cause stress to your natural hair. Damage will not be
done during the removal of the extensions. I prefer this method for those with fine hair.

Linking: Is not fused in, it is simply linked in. If you care for your extensions and follow the proper aftercare guidelines you will not damage your hair. Damage is done
when you don't take care of your investment and when you go to long between maintenance appointments. I prefer this method for those with medium to thick hair.

Skin Wefting: Is simply taped in or with use of medical adhesive. I find this method to be very safe and really helps to promote growth.

WILL THIS TANGLE, SHED OR FEEL DRY AFTER A FEW MONTHS?
Absolutely not. My experience with hair extensions has been vast. I personally have experienced all the down falls to product lines that were big time wasters. I am happy
to say that the product lines we carry are the best on the market. All products have been tested by Christina to ensure that the best is being used. Our extensions will NOT
shed or tangle. It also looks great the day we do take out, which means that it still is soft and full of body and color.

CAN I RE-USE THE HAIR?
If you are using the linking or weft method, YES. If you are using the fusion methods, simply put, NO. After wearing the hair for several months the bond will grown down.
Infact most of our competitors offer extensions that will only last a few months so it is amazing that this European Hair lasts as long as it does. The cuticle is all facing
the same direction (Remy) and after heat, coloring, perms etc it is not suggested to re-use the hair. It always feels great to replace old extensions with new.
