Greetings from premier Orlando, this is Alison Kerr and you're watching launch pad on the go right now, we're with simplicity's friend hard grade. Hey there how's it going good. How are you I'm having an amazing time and right now, Launchpad is so excited cuz. You get to see Brent in action, doing hair extensions. I can't wait to do it. It'S gon na be an amazing transformation in in minutes and you're gon na watch. Her do the biggest model pucker which, as we all know as a hair stylist. That'S our seal of approval. We can't wait to see it thanks Fred. Thank you so much. I really appreciate your time and thank you for your magazine. It has really kept me on the cutting edge if any well. Thank you so much so what we're doing is we're simply putting this in we're gon na lift up the hair, which will give us the perfect amount of hair to put into the weft and going through and placing this with a couple of flips open this side Up take it across then we're simply going to drop the hair down when one two three, that's it going in now, and I'm laying a little bit more dimension into our models. Hair, lift this up and notice. There again is a perfect amount of hair to go into the extension. Take out anything, that's not there secure secure, you want to create a flatness to it, go through and create any more hairs that don't need to be in there. We'Re making sure that our corners are nicely covered, then we simply open up, drive it across. Stop it open it up and drive it across pinch, pinch pinch the corner so that you seal the deal and then you're going to drop it and then you're gon na press three times. One. Two, three simplicity, look at that! Did you notice that I made a mistake? I was able to pull out and start over again that's a very big point of difference for us putting that through notice that the width is just about that which also matches the graph. Once you put that in press your corners to make sure you get a really nice solid edge to it, then we're gon na pick this up pinch it and drive it right across and lifting then we're gon na go ahead and pinch which is going to seal The deal take our clips out drop the hair, as you can see, that's a really nice fit so now we're gon na go ahead and balance out our other side. The fact that I can do in 45 minutes to an hour $ 1,000. This is a great revenue, as you can see how nicely that fits in this triple grade-a, remy hair. So now we're going to drop our section and you can already see how this is melting into the hair and that's just one level. Actually, at that point I don't know any other service in our industry that allows you to make the type of income that you can in one hour during a lunch break. I tell you another thing: that's gone on with me. My wedding business is booming. People know that I'm doing this now and I work with a great wedding photographer and I work with a lot of social media to let people know what I'm doing once again, we're gon na go right in making a really beautiful seal like that. I'M gon na pinch those corners and then I'm gon na go ahead and drop it. When I drop it you'll see it sits beautifully on there and it's that width away, pushing it down three times. You can already see how well that's blended into her hair. Another thing that I've been doing with this is I've had solid blondes that really want low lights and I'm always like no they're gon na fall out no they're, not gon na last, and then now I can say I'll, give you low lights, we'll do it with Extensions because it's damage free, I'm allowed to go in place, color, where I want it to be without damaging my clients, hair, which is huge. This is medical grade adhesive on a polyurethane strip just so I can also show you each one of these hairs is individually knotted on to the grout or to the weft. Another thing that's important: it's all omnidirectional, meaning you're, not never gon na - have that velcro effect with hair two hairs opposing and cuticle. We come in three different widths. We have two inch three inch and four inch, so you can make seven inches 8 inches five inches. Whatever you want just by using different widths, also, we have three different links. We have 10 to 12 14 to 16 and 18 to 21. The most beautiful thing about ours is: we can use this three times. We can simply retake that medical grade adhesive use it again over and over, which is a good value for our clients, who may have been extension shy at first. So now you can see this. We got that nice ombre effect working around where the darker pieces are working into the lighter pieces. We have online education and certification at simplicity, hair calm. This is going to allow people that aren't able to get to hair shows that are in the middle of other parts of our country to actually be certified in something that allows them to create the revenue Avenue that they've been looking for. So let's go ahead and take this down House is starting to look we're gon na look at all of the thickness. I feel just like Santa Claus. Right now. I'Ve been giving out so many four ways for our guests that are here today at the show to create a new revenue income for themselves and the fact that we've had so many differences going on in the market. With the recession, my personally have lost sixty clients in one month, just because they all had to move, and I didn't know what to do. I was a stylist that was scrambling around and all of a sudden, I heard about simplicity and I'm like wow 45 minutes to an hour to create an entire look. When used to be when I did extensions, it was seven or eight hours and a whole lot more money. I love this product because it you can reuse it three different times so for all of our granola girls out there as you well the green people. It allows you to not only give your clients something that they can keep going with, rather than having to take out all the hair and start completely over again. So there's so many benefits to it and there's so many wonderful things. The fact that it's damage free the fact that it's hand knotted it just makes a huge difference. I'Ve had a blast with it. I'Ve made memories for people. My wedding business has gone crazy with it, because the fact that you know an eight-year-old girl looks in the mirror when she's a little girl and says I'm a princess and then they go through puberty and then they go through. You know sometimes menopause or whatever. If it's a third wedding and then I'm able to give them the thickness that they've always looked for, I have to say it's not even noon yet. At the show, there's been hundreds of people that have already stopped by the booth to get extensions from breath. Yeah. It'S so easy, I mean I can do it in 30 or 45 minutes. Nothing gets better than this. The fact that I'm not damaging my clients, hair I've got some single-process blondes that I've really been playing with now, just by adding lowlights, because we all know once we've lifted that hair up when we put low lights in, it's really hard to get them to stay. And as a colorist as well as the cutter, I'm going to make sure that I can get my clients the best thing they need, so I'm playing with a lot of fillers just filling in the hair from the baby boomers that are now losing it. They'Ve got all the money and I'm just really being very targeted to who I'm doing it's not trying to just create long hair as creating a lot of crown length. A lot of you know areas where the hair just doesn't have that thickness. So I'm a miracle worker notice at the front, graduation that I put in actually added that nice bit of hair to an area where most women don't have a whole lot. So by taking those diagonal placements, it worked. We spin her around now and show you exactly the way the hair falls and the way the hair looks it's a nice beachy wave, it's a dual texture, that's going on cool thing is, is that we have straight and wavy for her because she doesn't have a Lot of hair, as far as density goes, I decided to use the wavy. She can always blow this out straight. She can iron it. She can. She could do pretty much anything she wants now. Here'S the other cool thing. How many girls do you know that wear ponytails? I want you to look in there and see if you see any extensions, that's a huge part! Once again I Britian hard gray from simplicity, hair extensions. You can also go online to certify @ ww, simplicity, hair, calm for certification and also here at the Orlando, show we're certifying tomorrow. Thank you guys. So much
