Hair Extensions

Hair extensions are unforgettable transformations, less than an hours away. These flawless results show only a fraction of what you can achieve. Michelle has many different techniques of applying hair extensions that will ensure the least damaging to your hair. Hair extensions once worn exclusively by HOLLYWOOD CELEBRITIES, now can be worn by YOU.

Hair Extensions are human hair extensions that are attached with a surgical tape without the need for tools or heat.

Hair Extensions are uniquely designed to lay completely seamless and undetectable in the hair.

Manufactured with highest quality human hair with the cuticle intact. This allows hair extensions to be reapplied. Offered in 4 lengths.

Can be worn straight or wavy. Water will activate a slight body wave which allows them to be worn straight or wavy.

Am I a candidate for hair extensions?

For hair extensions, the hair needs to be at least six inches in length from the crown due to camouflaging the attachments. However, there may be health issues relating to you and your hair that may prevent hair extensions from being an option. In rare cases for those clients with special needs, my professional human hair extensions have advantages over other hair extensions. My human hair is the highest grade of real human hair and the preferred choice for hairpieces such as an integrated piece for the crown. This gives them the added advantage of integrations of hair enhancements to work along side of the extensions if the client has the need. This is an option other companies do not have. This service is totally custom and specialized to one's individual need.

If I don't qualify for hair extensions, is there another option for me?

Yes! There are various integrated pieces such as clip in and professional attached hair extensions depending on the clients needs. Schedule a consultation to inquire.

How long do hair extensions last and how often do I need maintenance?

It depends on the integrity of your own hair and how fast your hair grows and the method of application. Usually, most clients feel the need to get maintenance every 6-10 weeks depending on hair growth. I do not recommend going longer because the integrity of the hair is strongest near the scalp. With proper home maintenance, these extensions can be used multiple times. Hair grows on an average of about 1/2 inch a month. When extensions are closest to the scalp, they are the least detectable.

...for Hair Extensions How long does this process take?

The application time depends on the variables such as amount of the extensions applied as previously mentioned. Once extensions are applied, the hair is cut and styled to blend the hair into the extensions to eliminate demarcation and prevent detection. Again, the desired finished look is discussed, and application is designed accordingly.

How do I maintain my hair once I have Professional Hair Extensions?

Your hair extensions can be treated much the same as if it was your natural hair. There are certain brushes, shampoos, and conditioning products that are recommended, I do not suggest conditioning close to the scalp to prevent slipping.

Can I swim and do normal activities?

Yes, but when swimming, if the hair is long, it should be braided, and a conditioner applied from the pony tail down (not the scalp) to help repel chlorine or salt water then rinse and shampoo immediately afterwards. Normal activities are usually not a problem, but if the hair is long, you can braid it or pull it back in a scrunchie to prevent tangling in the water. Please note, if your hair is not long enough to be tied, or if you have an integration piece - it is not encouraged to do activities such as swimming as it can result in matting of the extensions.

Can my hair be colored at the same time?

It is recommended that hair be colored or touched up a minimum of 24-48 hours prior to application of extensions.

Can my new hair extensions be styled with heat rollers, curling iron, or round brush?

Yes, your hair extensions may be styled in the usual manner as you would style your own hair. If using a curling iron or a flat iron, it is recommended not to use any heating element over 320 degrees.

Hello!

Are YOU considering hair extensions?

Usually, the first thing that comes to mind is LENGTH. You may be thinking, I want 12 to 16-inch hair, or I want 18-inch hair, maybe even up to 24 inches. In some cases, you may want to match the length of your hair to create more volume. This will allow you to determine what you want as an end result.

And yes, you want desired length in mind, but that is only a start. There is much more to this picture! The first question I take into consideration with each client is this:

“What is it going to take to give you the best optimal look for the image you have in mind, that you have presented to me.”

My client

It is MY job through a personalized consultation with you, to design the LOOK you want. Once that is decided upon, I place the order according to that ‘LOOK’. When the order comes in, I inspect it and check it again to be sure it is exactly what I asked for before I apply it.

I have many sources to pick from when choosing extensions, quality is the main thing I look for. I special order for each client after a consultation so you can be sure that what you get is for you and you alone.

There are too many options in the extensions market with colors (balayage, rooted, naturals etc.) and lengths to resort to relying on inventory.

I have found that unfortunately some of my best clients are the ones that have had a bad experience with someone else first. Time and again customers have come in with a botched job so bad that I have had to take them all out and completely start over again with a customized new job.

No one wants to spend money and time to go through a bad experience like that.

Many times, this was because they did not understand the full picture of what is involved in the complete process of a hair extension service. It is much more than simply buying pieces of hair and having someone attach it.

“I want you to be discriminating enough not to have to get the job done TWICE to get it done RIGHT!” 

On occasion I have discouraged some from getting hair extensions because they could not afford the look they wanted, or they couldn’t afford the maintenance that was required to keep it up right. If you can’t get the look you want, you may not be happy with the result.

Bottom line for me is I don’t want an unhappy client. I want longevity in a relationship with each client. I appreciate the repeat business so I’m honest and upfront with them. They shouldn’t compromise the look they want if they are unable to get it right.

“Hair Extensions are a big investment, and you don’t want to go into this armed with little or no information.”

A full-service hair stylist with a well-rounded background in the beauty industry and 40+ years of experience, I am well-qualified to be your guide.

I build a history with my clients, and I get to know their hair and how it behaves and what I need to do individually for each client. Over time, I also get to know your personal tastes and personality type. If there are health issues we need to discuss, this is important to know too. Depending on your circumstance, I will let you know if I think you may not be a candidate for hair extensions at this time and when this might change for you. I will be honest with you about this before you make the investment.

I look forward to hearing from you!
