Hair
Extension What Is It?
Hair extension is adding hair (human or synthetic) onto your own
hair by means of Weaving, Braiding, Strand By Strand, or Bonding.
It is normally applied by a skilled beautician in a salon, but many
individuals have been applying it in the convenience of their own
home. Hair extensions can make you look and feel younger and beautiful.
With instant long and lucious hair that you wear on a regular basis,
you can sleep with it, wash and care for it like your own hair. You
can also cut and style to fit your look. |

How
Do You Wear Them?
There are four methods in which you wear hair extensions.
These are the general terms the industry uses to represent the process.
There are many variations of these methods based on the individual
who is performing the job ranging from braid weave, tree braids, individuals,
latch hooks, pole method and much more. Please consult with your stylist
before choosing a method.
1) Weaving A process in which you create tracks on the individuals
head and sew the hair extensions on. This method is the most widely
used method in adding hair extensions.
2) Braiding
A process in which you add hair extensions by braiding them in.
There are many types of braiding techniques which varies from one
skilled beautician to another. Tree Braid, Braid Weave or Individuals,
Cornrow, and French Braid are just to name a few.
3) Strand By
Strand A process in which the extension hair is attached directly
to your own hair by heated glue sticks. In this method, an acrylic
glue stick is placed inside a glue gun which heats and melts the
glue. Then, the hair extension and the glue are attached directly
onto the individual's hair.
4) Bonding The
simplest method. A bonding glue is brushed or applied onto the weft
of the extension hair and then it is applied at the root of the individual's
hair. It can easily be removed by a remover the glue comes with. This
is a temporary method. |

How
Much Hair Do You Need?
Normally
for a full head of weave, you'll need 1/2 pound of hair. This is two
bundles of hair either on a weft for weaving or loose, bulk hair for
braiding. However, some may require more than two bundles and some
may require less. For just the back or the top, one bundle of hair
would be sufficient. Our human hair extensions are sold by a 1/4lb
which is a bag of hair or a bundle of hair.

Each of these
bundles weigh 1/4lb and depending on the length, quality, texture,
and color prices will vary. Our prices range from $20.00 to $249.00
per 1/4lb of human hair for weaving or for braiding. Generally speaking,
for a good quality hair, you can spend about $90.00 ~ $100 for two
bundles of 10" ~ 12" hair for weaving and 14" ~ 16"
for braiding.
