combination hair
Extensions are never one size fits all. Every client deserves a comfortable install that fits their lifestyle, and preferred maintenance. Using a combination of methods, I am able to fully customize color, placement, and install type. Methods used are sew in, tape in, or K-tip.
After a detailed consultation, we decide if a single method, or combo is best.

Sew in
For density, and quick reinstalls.
Sew-ins are a perfect choice to get maximum density, volume, and easy maintenance. These require no glue or adhesives - which make them easy to maintain at home.
Sew in hair can last on average 6-8 months. Reinstalls needed every 6-8 weeks.
Tape in
Great for distributing density to diffuse blunt weight lines in your natural hair.
Tape ins are a great choice if you have short or blunt hair that needs to be diffused into the extensions without texturizing the natural hair. These can be very easy to maintain at home, with fairly quick reinstalls. These DO use a tape adhesive which can be hard for some clients to avoid when using oils or conditioners. This leads to slipping and requires in salon adjustments.
Tape in hair can last on average 6-8 months, and requires reinstalls every 6-8 weeks.
K tip
Great for filler in low density areas, and diffusing weight lines.
K tips are great for low density hair. They can be custom sized to match almost any density, with lots of mobility. perfect for crown and hairline filler. K tips do require new hair every install, and can slip out when oils or conditioners get on the bonds. once a bond slips, it can not be replaced.
K tips last up to 3-6 months, and require new hair every install.
