Fusion-Hair care tips

November 6th, 2009

Strand by strand hair extensions has been around for many years. This method is called Fusion as we fuse the extensions to your natural hair. This forms a bond that will last for several Months or until removed. Having your extensions put in and removed by an experienced stylist is very important.

Hair Weaving or Strand-by-Strand Extensions should last for at least 4 to 6 months. Monthly tightening may be necessary. If they are not lasting that long then there is likely a problem in the installation or the daily maintenance program. CAUTION: No hair extensions should be worn longer than 6 months in-between tightening or re-dos to avoid breakage or damage to your natural hair no matter what! Due to hair growth and daily maintenance, your hair extensions may become loose and will need to be tightened. CAUTION: It is very important to have your hair extensions tightened at least once a Month to avoid any damage to your own natural hair. If the hair extensions get too loose, your new growth of natural hair between your scalp and the hair extensions can matt together and cause potential breakage when trying to detangle that hair. Ask your stylist for a tightening schedule for your particular method of hair extensions.

Your natural hair sheds on a daily basis as part of a natural process. It is normal to loose up to 30 hairs a day! Just because you have extensions in your hair does not mean that this natural process stops, in fact it continues, but since your hair is held together by the extensions this stops your hair from shedding daily. So the hair that would normally shed is trapped in the installation and not falling out into your sink or latching on to your comb or brush as usual. So when you remove your hair extensions, all of that normal hair shed is then released and it appears as though a lot of hair is coming out all at once. If you are wearing your hair extensions for 8 to 12 weeks, that’s up to 1,300 hairs that you have shed during this time naturally. I can not stress enough how important it is to have a trained stylist remove your hair extensions! She or he too can explain this natural process to you. While wearing extensions your hair will grow. The difference is that immediately after removing extensions your hair will look shorter to you, only because you just removed the extra long hair extensions. This is why we must take before and after pictures. So that we can show you that your natural hair is indeed longer than when you put the extensions in.

Fusion hair extension-cost and methodology

November 3rd, 2009

The fusion method delivers one of the most versatile and believable weaves on the market. With this technique, a machine similar to a hot glue gun is used to adhere human hair extensions to individual strands of your natural hair (about the same size as a micro braid) for a truly authentic look. With a fusion weave, you can wash your hair every week and use products like gels and mousse to style. This is one of the most time-consuming (8 to 16 hours) and expensive methods (prices range from about $800 to $1,800).

To use a heating appliance, individual strands of hair are used. Hair is sectioned out as if the client is getting skinny individual braids. The appliance is heated to the correct temperature. The stylist attaches a section of the human hair to the client’s sectioned hair. Depending on the style, a half head of fused hair could take about 20 sections. A full head could use about 50 sections.The heating applicance can cost from $100.00 upwards. It is highly recommended that a trained and certified stylist use this technique because of potential hair loss and skin burning from the appliance may occur.Recently cold fusion extensions made of 100% human hair (no yak hair dilution) have been introduced. These hair extensions do not require any heating elements, as the intense heat used to apply traditional hair extensions may damage them.

Fusion Hair Extensions – Methods

August 4th, 2009

Hair extensions can be attached to your head in many different ways, including gluing, tubing, sewing, and clipping on. Different methods have different advantages. The method you choose will depend on many factors: your hair, your lifestyle, your budget, and your needs. For starters, If you are looking for a long-lasting, natural-looking hair extension, though, consider one of the fusion methods.

Fusion is generally the preferred method as fused hair extensions can last up to three to six months with skilled application and proper care. With fusion hair extensions, the extensions should be indistinguishable from your natural hair. If properly applied, the attachment site should be virtually invisible.

Fusion hair extensions can be applied in different ways:
Hot fusion
Cold fusion.

Hot fusion or bonding uses hot glue to attach extensions to your hair. This is the more traditional method. While it does have many happy followers, others say that the glue causes the extensions to feel stiff and unnatural. These extensions can last up to 4 months.

Cold fusion is a new method, and is meant to be gentle for the hair. This method uses a keratin-based polymer to attach extensions to the root. As this method uses no heat, it is good for fine or thin hair. The polymer offers more flexibility than hot-glue, and results in more natural-feeling hair. For cold fusion hair extensions, many hairdressers use SoCap extensions and a clear bond. These extensions can last up to six months.

Fusion hair extensions are more expensive than other methods. If you want long-lasting, natural-looking luscious hair, they just might be the extensions for you.
