Hair Extensions 101: The 4 Different Types

Hey Marianna and we're here with Rica Hales at just extensions, so if you've never heard of those extensions before what is it, Jess expenses Estelle likes first and only hair extensions bar that is dedicated to affordable, hair centers for all hair textures see these are specializing. In extension, suggest, expenses: okay, okay, so if someone's getting extensions for the first time and they have no clue which Sally want to get, can you take me through the different types of hair extensions? Well, you know it varies from person to person based on your hair. Texture length and what you're going for and what your daily activities are. Sometimes I recommend that everyone comes your for consultation, commit for consultation. Let us look at your hair, your limp and your texture. Then we can determine what's going to be the best for you. Well, let's go through the different extensions, then you can tell me the benefits of each one. This is what we call the ID tip. Okay now the active is also known as the cold fusion. This is put together on your hair strand by strand with a micro bead. It'S a micro cylinder, that's small, and basically it's lined with silicone. The silicone helps to protect your natural hair and we just kind of stop in their strand by strand, then insert the active hair and then squeeze it with pliers. And then that gives you the fluid of your head, where it's able to move very naturally, and you able to put up a high ponytail aside and solid as your on okay, so a benefit for that one. This anyway, you can wear anyway, and it's also good. If you want to add, highlights or lowlights in it with more pop of color, instead of dyeing your natural hair, like you know how you see, people with like the purple or the green yeah, this will kind of give you that same. Look okay and then, what's the typical time that it takes to get these in um. Typically, most people get about 150 lengths which is kind of a forehead, and it takes about two and a half hours to install, sometimes less. And then, how often would you have to come to get it redone? We recommend coming every six to eight weeks to get it tightened up. Even the great thing about the micro links is that you can open the UM. The silicone feet slide it up and you can get another eight to ten weeks out of the house without replacing the hair, that's just important and how quality hair yeah so that you can spout as and curl it as your own. So, what's the next type of hair extension do here? This is the skin web. That is sandwiched in between your hair. You can open, it is the sticky. A thin portion of your hair is sandwiched in between them and then we seal it with a flat iron and then lay a super flat. So just think, like the thinness of a double sided tape yeah. So it's all wet hair and it's very very nice. I wouldn't recommend it for your hair because you have so much hair but then a short hair like for me. If I wanted to add a few pieces at the front yeah, it was a very, very flat and it wouldn't be able to notice at all on how long does that take up to take those dolls, oh about 30-40 minutes, so it doesn't take very long to Install it's very easy to install okay and then what's the next one, the keratin basically has two also known as the hot fusion and basically there's pre tipped. You tip shapes like we talked about the ad tip before now. This is the you tube. The you tip is lined with silicone and why it's cold - and you tip, is because we put your hair in between the you like a strand of your hair, and then we seal it with an extension tool, a hot extension tool. And then it's melted onto your hair now the thing about the keratin is that is a flower with glue. So this is the application that I recommend that you always go to your extension. If you get it installed, can remove it because it is a flower with Balu. You want to make sure that you remove it properly yeah, you don't want any kind of breakage with that, and then these are all easily styled in your hair. Yes, as much as long as you get 100 %, human hair is about it and where does your alright? So what's the next one and that's what we have is the brightest own. The braided soin is basically braid your natural hair down, and then we sold the rest onto it with a needle and thread and that's ideal, for you know: african-american hair people who have coarse hair. The thing I like the most about the braid is someone is that it really helps protect your hair, because all of your hair is braided up. You don't have to kind of put any heat sewer and the extensions really take on the daily room. Tear up your hair, so we also offer the braided, solar and clipping so clippings are a temporary fix. If you don't want to get anything permanent, but you want to add some quick limp to your hair and, I always say, invest in how quality in all thickness, because you can keep them up to a year, you shampoo them after every use. You never hang dry like get it on a hanger and let them hang dry and then you keep using it over and over. Well. Those were all the different types of hair extensions. So if you don't know which ones to get now, you can figure out which works best for your hair. If you guys want to check out just extensions hair, calm and visit their salon, in Los Angeles,
