How long does my hair have to be to get hair extensions? Will extensions damage my hair especially if I have thin fine hair?As long as your hair is at least 6 to 7 inches long, which is around chin length, tape-in hair extensions will blend naturally. No. Tape-in Hair Extensions is the beauty industry's leading form of non-damaging hair extensions. They are unbelievably realistic and provide a natural, undetectable transformation for fuller, voluminous hair. Specifically designed for fine and or thin hair, tape-in hair extensions are 100% natural, require no glue or chemicals, last up to 3 months and the hair is reusable for up to 2+ years.

What textures of hair extensions do you offer? Do you offer short hair extensions?The texture of hair extensions largely depends on the natural hair of the donor. Since our extensions are sourced ethically from single donors, each pack reflects the donor's unique hair texture. This ensures a more natural appearance and flow. Here’s how donor hair influences texture: Straight Hair – Naturally sleek and smooth, sourced from donors with naturally straight hair. Wavy Hair – Soft, natural waves often come from donors with slightly textured or loose wave patterns. Curly Hair – Donors with natural curls contribute to extensions with gentle, loose curls or defined patterns. Because our hair comes from single donors, slight variations in texture are natural, giving the hair extensions a realistic and authentic look. If you’re looking for a specific texture, our team can help guide you to the best option for your needs! Our hair extensions are crafted to blend effortlessly with most hair types. However, they will not match tighter curl patterns such as 3A, 3B, 3C, 4A, 4B, or 4C textures. The shortest length that we offer is 16" but we can cut it shorter for no extra charge.

Comfortable: Tape-in extensions are lightweight and comfortable to wear. Unlike other extensions, they don't pull on the scalp or cause discomfort, making them suitable for long-term wear. ​ Versatility: Tape-in extensions can be styled, curled, or straightened just like your hair, offering versatility in creating various hairstyles. . Low maintenance: Compared to other hair extensions, tape-ins require minimal maintenance. They can be easily washed, conditioned, and styled with natural hair. Additionally, they typically last up to 3 months before needing to be reinstalled. ​ Quick application: Our hair extension specialists can apply tape-in extensions relatively quickly, typically taking 30 minutes to an hour for a complete application. This makes them a convenient option for busy schedules. ​ Reusable: With proper maintenance, our tape-in extensions can be reused for up to 2 years, making them a cost-effective option in the long run. ​ No damage to natural hair: Tape-in extensions do not cause damage to your natural hair. ​ Customizable: Tape-in extensions come in various lengths, colours, and textures, allowing for customization to match your natural hair seamlessly or to achieve a desired look, whether it's adding length, volume, or highlights.

Is it normal to lose extension strands? Why are my tape-in extensions sticky?It is important to remember that losing a few strands over 12 weeks is completely normal! Whilst most of OUR clients never lose a single extension, it can happen. Sometimes this happens while brushing or styling! Here are the main reasons: Root Conditioning. Conditioning is great for hair extensions, as long as it’s done on the mid-shaft down. Do not rinse upside down this can cause the extensions to slip. Product Buildup: When you have tape in hair extensions, you should be wary of applying excess products to your roots. Toner, dry shampoo, and other hair products can damage the adhesive if too much builds up along the tape. Products that use alcohol and oil should be avoided. These ingredients can damage the adhesive if applied in any amount. Naturally Oily Scalp/Hair: There are those that have excess oil and naturally oily hair. Tape extensions won’t hold as long and you will need to re-install your tape extensions more frequently (every 6 weeks or so). You can book a touch up ($75) on the website if you reach 5 sandwiches or 10 pieces or else bring your strands to your re-installation appointment. 💕 Unfortunately, sticky tape is totally normal. Some pieces will be stickier than normal depending on summer heat, the amount of oil your hair produces, how much heat you have applied to it, or how often you wash your hair. Make sure to double-wash and scrub your scalp really well. Rinse thoroughly. All of these factors play a huge role in that, but we think heat is the main culprit that feeds into stickiness! To remove product build-up and keep hair and scalp squeaky clean, we recommend washing your hair with a clarifying shampoo once per week.

Why do you ONLY offer tape-in hair extensions? Why don't you offer hand-tied?We only do tape in hair extensions. Created by our supplier, this method is 100% natural, non-damaging, requires no glue or chemicals, lasts up to 3 months and the hair is reusable for up to 2 years. We DON'T do hand-tied hair extensions for the following reasons: • Initial installation requires a significant investment of both time (2 to 5 hours) and money ($1,500 or more) - the most expensive method. The tension point systems can lead to hair loss from traction alopecia. • Damaging for women with thin fine hair. • Not suitable for women experiencing hair loss. • If the hair extensions are not washed regularly, bacteria can build up and cause infection. • Extensions may be uncomfortable, tight, and cause headaches after an application.

Can I tone, bleach or colour my extensions? Can I swim, exercise or go on vacation with hair extensions?Since our hair extensions are 100% human hair, you can tone or colour them darker but not bleach. You can colour your own hair with the extensions. If bleach is required, please book a removal first then do your colour with your hairdresser followed by the installation. You will have to book 2 appointments. It is recommended to book your bleach services closer to when you are due to re-do your hair extensions. ​ Swimming: Chlorine is not hair-friendly. If entering the pool or ocean, apply Olaplex #6 leave-in conditioner mid to ends. It is recommended to wear your hair up or in a ponytail when you swim. ​Exercise: Please dry the tapes after exercising. Hair must be completely dry to avoid tangling at the root. Vacation: Our hair is an amazing quality 100% one donor human hair therefore, you can go on vacation with them!

Can I buy hair only? How long should I wait to wash my hair after a colour or toner?Yes, you can buy hair only by clicking on the length that you want. 👇 Ideally, please wait minimum of 48 hours to wash. It takes 2 days for the cuticle layer of the hair to fully close and that will trap the colour molecule in the hair, which allows you to have longer-lasting hair colour.
