Are Microlinks Healthier Then Sew Ins?

Hey y'all shire here at canvas hair studio wanting to give you guys a nice little video about the uh truth of microlinks um. You know me and my unpopular opinion that i don't mind giving okay uh. This is one of my clients who came in and got the micro links. I love it because she brought me natural texture, hair that matches her hair texture. That'S full! That'S really pretty, and it's going really really well. I love these type of clients because she's one of the clients that come on her schedule, maintenance right we're not getting the micro links taking it to our stylist, who didn't pay for the class and never seeing her again like she comes in on time to get Her maintenance for her micro links. This is not a method that you can do at home. It is not. This is not a method to be playing with period right. I know the thing is they're like oh i'm, never going back into sew-ins microlinks could never be sew-ins on their best day. Okay, a couch is not going to be a cat. This is not going to be. A protective style. Does not go in that category. This style is for people who know how to maintain their hair, don't mind coming into the salon: um our salon, regulars, okay, um. In my experience with the microlink's been on them for a little while now i've gotten all types of clients right the clients who come once think that they can do it at home, tear their hair to shreds and they're mad at me right. But when you come for a consultation, i'm gon na tell you straight up and down. If you don't come back you're going to be bold, yeah, bold and that's just my you know, consultation and i'm going to leave it at that. If you are a person, who's been in someone's for a while and you're looking for versatility, this is a good method to go to, but only if you are familiar with how to take care of your own hair, okay, it is also a method that you have To really be careful who you're going to as a hair stylist, because you can blow dry this wrong rip out a whole bunch of hair. You can shampoo it wrong tangle. It really really bad there's so many ways you can go wrong with micro links, okay, so um! I don't want to lead you guys astray and have you guys thinking? Okay, i'm gon na go into microlinks and it's gon na grow. My edges, i grow my hair out. Have my hair be so healthy? You can go backwards so quickly with one installation of microlinks. Okay, those are just facts. Okay, i don't care who's gon na be mad about it. Those are just facts. This is something that you need to take care of. It took us a while to blow dry this hair, okay, because she has these really really thick extensions. Her hair is really really really thick and i don't want to go in here and just blow dry. All over the place and yank out a whole bunch of hair. I have piles of hair in my brush, um i'll show you guys yeah. I just blow dried her hair and there's like a few strands in this brush few few strands. So you you just have to number one care number two be consistent with your maintenance of these micro links. Uh number three not try to be cheap, don't spend a thousand dollars to get them done and then never get a maintenance, because you're gon na spend ten thousand dollars trying to grow your hair back. Okay, it's gon na be protein treatments for life. So it's just not worth it so um. I want to show you her hair, because i really love the way this client is consistent. She'S coming in her hair is her hair, her natural hair, same length as when we started. This was her length when we started right. You don't see a whole bunch of little short pieces in between a whole bunch of breakage whole bunch of crispy pieces because she's in this chair when she needs to be so. I totally appreciate that, but i wanted you guys to um get this information because there's a lot of people out there like i'm, never doing sew-ins again. This could never replace sew-ins because number one you don't have the time all the time to sit in the salon. How long will you blow dry them unless you take two hours like it felt like two hours literally, it's a long blow dry process because i'm not gon na yank through your hair, i'm gon na go section by section, okay and make sure your hair is dry. Make sure i am keeping all the strands on your head that were there when you first came, because if you don't take the time and really really uh care for this extension method, you can cause a lot of damage to your natural hair, a lot of damage. Okay, so um and this hair is thick too. Her extensions are really really thick, so it held all the water. Today i was like almost done almost done so there's a lot of little different things that you have to keep in mind when you go to spend this seven eight hundred dollars on this micro link method, um. I want you guys to get the truth and hear from me: i'm never gon na. You know just sell you a service just because it's new, it's hot and it's expensive and i can make a lot of money off of it. No i'm doing my consultations figuring out what type of client you're going to be and if it's going to be best for your hair care best for where you're looking to go, i've had people come in to get the method and they're like. Oh, i don't care girl, i'm going to cut this in a shortcut. Well, let's go to so you ain't going to take care of it. You don't expect me to take care of it. You'Re gon na cut your hair afterwards, let's go, but then for those of you who are like i'm coming out of the sew-ins, because i want to take care of my hair. Have it be healthy? You have to come back to the salon and get your maintenance every two weeks, every two weeks, so do not get this method if you're gon na be in and out of town, don't get this method if you can't afford it, don't get this method if you're Working out seven days a week - okay, just don't i prefer just don't okay, but if you have time it's super cute, it's super fun. It'S super versatile, um. Also, oh, my goodness, i forgot y'all know i do my 50 50.. I'M gon na take half the responsibility for what you do, but you're gon na have to get this other half. If you are heavy-handed okay, if you are one of them, people that clean up and by the time you finish, cleaning up your whole like sponge, is raw and falling apart. Do not get this method? Okay, don't do it? Okay, you people these people. If you are heavy-handed, don't get this method because you can pull these beads out and have smooth bald spots in your head? Okay, smooth ball spots. I did one set yeah, i'm going to tell the story. I did one set of micro links when i take the lady came back in one week later. It has snatched the micro links out her scalp right. It'S just ball. Ball ball ball ball! She'S, like i didn't do nothing to it. I don't know the track. Just slipped out of my head and i'm just going to tell you the truth: you're going to pull all your hair out, okay and it's attached to the bead. So you can't have this so i went ahead and gave her a sew-in okay. So if you are heavy-handed, this is not the method for you either. Okay, so um just wanted to give you a little couple truths about the method so that you don't walk in here thinking. Oh, this is going to be the healthiest thing for my hair and i'm never going back in the sew ends. I do sew into my hair and i love them they're protective. They grow my hair out i'll.
