Fusion Method is a strand by strand technique, no tracks. I recommend this for thick to medium hair types. You have full range of motion, styling possibilities are endless. Toss it up, blow dry, let it flow or can be pinned up and placed in a high ponytail. Process is done with hot or cold applications. I've been asked does this damage your hair. Well, any technique can damage your hair if not done improperly. As I mentioned above, in my professional opinion this is not recommend for clients with thin, soft, or receding hair.
Seamless Method/Tape In is a new innovative technique. Hair is already on the attachment, resulting in faster application. Extensions are applied to hair similar to a sandwich technique (above and below) and last 2-3 weeks, tracks/weft are very flat, undetectable, can be used on most hair types, great range of motion, allows hair to be pulled up or back, hair can be reused. This technique is great for adding length to the bang area without bulk.
Micro-link Method is a strand by strand adjustable technique. Extensions are applied individually to clients hair. The shells/tubes are very small, very light weight, strong and undetectable. The inside of the tiny tubes are coated with a special silicone compound that protects the hair from compression and related stress. Time it takes can vary depending on texture of your hair 3-5 hours and is highly favorable among many clients. We recommend this on non-relaxed hair. Benefits of this Extension: hair can be reused for 6-9 months, hair extension does not have to be removed to be reattached (like fusion) add highlights without damaging your natural hair, you can blow dry, curl, shampoo as often as you like, pull it back, toss it up, styling is endless. Many things are taken into consideration to determine the price for this service. Hair texture, thick hair requires more strands than thin/soft hair. If you want to just add volume, length or both.
Braid-less Sew-In is a technique similar to the traditional sew-in, only without the braid. Yes, without the braid. Hair is left out between tracks similar to bonding method. Recommend for medium to thick hair types and relaxed hair. This technique is not recommended for un-relaxed hair. Very time consuming, depending on hair texture this technique can last up to 2 months with maintenance appointments, can be pulled up or pinned back.
