Hair extensions are more than just a beauty accessory; they are a transformative experience. Extensions offer endless possibilities, whether you’re seeking to add length, or volume, or explore a new style. At Art of Impact Salon & Spa, we specialize in hand-tied extensions that enhance your natural beauty without compromising the health of your hair. From the initial consultation to ongoing maintenance, we ensure a seamless and luxurious experience tailored to your unique needs. Let’s take a closer look at the process of getting hair extensions with us and the following care.
Step 1: Personalized Consultation
Your hair extension journey begins with a personalized consultation. This is an essential step where we get to know your hair and your goals. During the consultation, one of our skilled stylists will perform a professional blow dryer to evaluate your hair’s natural characteristics, such as its texture, density, and condition. This information helps us select the right type of extensions for you and ensures a perfect, natural-looking blend.
We also discuss your desired length, volume, and color, and offer a clear breakdown of the costs for both the initial installation and long-term maintenance. Our priority is transparency and education, so you’ll leave your consultation fully informed about the journey ahead.
Step 2: Color and Color Matching
One of the most crucial aspects of achieving a flawless look with extensions is color matching. After the consultation, we move on to perfecting your hair color to match the extensions. Whether you want to enhance your current shade or go for something completely new, our stylists at Art of Impact Salon & Spa are experts in color correction and customization. We blend the extensions to match your hair color precisely, ensuring a seamless, natural appearance.
Step 3: Hand-Tied Extension Application
Once your color is perfected, we begin the application process. Hand-tied hair extensions are applied without the use of heat or adhesives, which protects the health of your natural hair. Our stylists use a method that involves meticulously tying wefts of hair onto a beaded base row. This technique ensures that your extensions are securely attached and evenly distributed, avoiding unnecessary tension on any part of your scalp.
Each application is customized to your hair’s thickness, texture, and strength, making the extensions feel comfortable and look incredibly natural. You’ll be amazed at how flawlessly the extensions blend with your natural hair, enhancing both length and volume without anyone knowing you’re wearing them.
Step 4: Maintenance and Upkeep
The journey doesn’t stop after the initial installation. Maintenance is key to keeping your hair extensions looking their best and your natural hair healthy. At Art of Impact Salon & Spa, we recommend maintenance appointments every 6 to 8 weeks to ensure that your extensions stay in top condition as your natural hair grows. Here’s what to expect during these appointments:
- Bead Adjustment: As your hair grows, the beads that hold the extensions in place will need to be adjusted. We carefully reposition the extensions to maintain their seamless integration with your natural hair.
- Color Refresh: To keep your hair vibrant, we’ll refresh your color where needed. This ensures your hair extensions continue to match your natural or chosen shade perfectly.
- Shedding Prevention: Natural shedding happens to everyone, and during maintenance, we delicately remove any shed hair from the extensions to prevent tangling or matting.
- Comprehensive Care: Every few cycles, we perform a complete removal and reinstallation of the extensions. This involves removing the wefts, refreshing your color, and cutting the hair to eliminate split ends. Then, we reinstall the extensions, leaving your hair looking rejuvenated and flawless.
Step 5: Long-Term Care
Proper maintenance extends beyond your salon appointments. During your initial consultation and installation, we guide you through the daily care routines for your extensions. From using specialized products to gentle brushing techniques, we teach you how to keep your extensions looking pristine. Our goal is to help you make the most out of your investment and ensure that your hair—both natural and extended—remains healthy.
