How Long does my hair have to be for hair extensions?

Your hair cannot be less than four inches in length in order to consider Hair Extensions.

Will the hair extensions hurt or pull my hair?

ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! When I apply your Hair Extensions, they will be secured firmly at a comfortable level. The tension will be even over your entire head, without any area pulling or causing pain. Your Hair Extensions do not have to be very tight in order to be safe and secure. You will notice a slight difference with your Hair Extensions, but this will only last for the first day or two. After this time, you will not feel much of a difference, you won’t even know they are there. 

When it is time to have your Hair Extensions removed, you will notice slight hair loss. This does NOT mean that your hair has been pulled out! People normally lose between 50 to 100 hairs per day, but we do not realize this because our hair comes out gradually in the hairbrush, shower, on clothing, chairs, etc. This is NOT a problem, new hair grows at a similar rate to replace the hair which has fallen out. 

But when your hair is attached to Hair Extensions, your natural hair cannot "fall" normally; this is because it is trapped in the Hair Extension bonds. Once your Hair Extensions have been taken out, your natural hair must be detangled and the fallen hair removed.

What I need to do to perpare for my hair extensions?

BEFORE THE APPLICATION OF YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS, make sure your hair is freshly washed on the day of the application but do NOT use any conditioner. In regards to the type of shampoo, use a clarifying shampoo (I will recommend a good clarifying shampoo during your FREE consultation). This will remove all hair care product build up and ensure your hair is squeaky clean and ready for your new Hair Extensions. Be aware, any hair care product build up will impair the duration of your Hair Extensions. Next, blow dry your hair STRAIGHT (do not style it). Make sure your hair is straight and completely dry.

Do I need to use specific hair products to care for my hair extensions?

There are hair care products made specifically for the type of Hair Extensions you have chosen. Also, there are certain hair care product lines available that can work well too. This is a decision which needs to be discussed in order to determine which hair care products will be best for your Hair Extensions. I will review this with you during your FREE consultation.
