Hair Extensions

What types of hair extensions are there and how do you choose?

Hair extensions come in several forms to meet your specific needs. You can opt for cold-fit extensions, such as micro-rings or tape-in strips, which need no heat and are gentler on your natural hair. Hot-fit extensions often use keratin tips that melt onto your strands for a solid hold.

The choice between natural hair and synthetic hair is essential. Natural hair, especially human hair type, stays soft and shiny for longer, while being easy to style. Synthetic hair is an economical option, although its texture and durability are lower.

Depending on your style, you can choose a straight, wavy or curly texture so that your extensions blend perfectly with your hair. For a hair lengthening or volume boosting effect, woven wefts or sewn-in weaving offer reinforced hair density with a natural finish. Take into account the length of the strands and the thickness of the strands so that your extensions match the size and condition of your own hair.

Also think about the care of your extensions to keep their shine for longer. These tips will guide you to the ideal extensions, whether for covering thinner areas or for a party look such as a wedding hairstyle.

How do you fit hair extensions without damaging your natural hair?

To avoid damaging your natural hair, you need to choose the right fitting method. Cold fitting, as with woven wefts or micro-rings, is gentle because it uses no heat. This avoids weakening your hair fibre.

Our cold-fitting methods respect the hair density of your hair, which limits tension on the scalp. We also recommend adjusting the thickness of the strands to the strength of your hair. Strands that are too thick pull too hard and may snap your hair.

For a lasting, safe hold, well-made weave sewing spreads the weight across the whole head without damaging the roots. The durability of hair extensions also depends on good care after fitting. We offer specific products to protect your hair and stop the extensions from tangling or weakening.

Take care of your keratin tips by limiting rough handling. Finally, our range offers extensions suited to different wavy or curly textures, so that the strands blend in naturally without forcing your natural hairstyle. Each step aims to look after your hair while you enjoy an elegant hair lengthening or volume boost.

How long do hair extensions last?

The lifespan of hair extensions depends mainly on the type of strands chosen and the regular care you give them. If you opt for hair extensions in remy hair, you can expect a good result for around six months, sometimes more. Extensions in synthetic hair stay beautiful for a shorter time and begin to lose their shine after only one or two months.

Frequent use of heated tools, such as the hairdryer or the straightener, shortens the durability of extensions, especially on curly texture. It is essential to detangle your extensions gently every day and to use care suited to extension upkeep. For models with weave sewing or micro-ring fitting, a visit to the salon every two months allows the bands or rings to be readjusted to avoid strands coming out too early.

When you wear extensions for a volume boost, delicate brushing prolongs the beauty and suppleness of the hair. Our customers love the freedom to change their look without damaging their own hair. Keeping extensions in for many weeks also lets you experiment with different lengths or hair densities for a reliable result with no effort.
