Extension Methods

BEADED ROW EXTENSIONS-

Beaded Row Extensions is the method I specialize in and the one I trust most, both for my clients and for my own hair. Also known as the hand-tied method, this technique uses small, silicone-lined beads to create a secure foundation where a weft of hair is sewn in. Because there is no adhesive, glue, or heat involved, it is one of the healthiest extension options available and is the quickest method to install and remove. The weight is distributed evenly throughout the row, making it comfortable, lightweight, and suitable for most clients.

TAPE-IN EXTENSIONS-

Tape-In Extensions are a lightweight, flexible option that can be used to add subtle density, soft length, or enhanced dimension. The thin adhesive tabs lay flat against the head, allowing them to blend seamlessly and remain discreet within the hair.

While tape-ins can be worn on their own, I most often use mini tape-ins around the top and front hairline in combination with Beaded Row Extensions. This allows for added fullness and softness in delicate areas while maintaining a natural, balanced result throughout the rest of the hair. Tape-ins can also be placed intentionally to create a brighter, balayage-inspired effect, adding dimension in a way that looks effortless and customized.

K-TIP EXTENSIONS-

Keratin Tip Extensions are applied strand by strand using a small keratin bond that is gently heated and fused to your natural hair,, making them one of the most lightweight and natural-moving extension methods available. Each bond is individually placed for a highly customized result that blends seamlessly.

I especially love incorporating K-Tips around the front hairline, where the hair is typically the most fragile and delicate. Because they are so lightweight and individually bonded, K-Tips are ideal for creating fullness in these finer areas without adding unnecessary tension.

K-Tips typically last between 3 to 6 months with proper care and are not moved up or reused, allowing for a fresh, balanced installation each time. They can also be strategically placed to create subtle highlight or lowlight effect without the need for additional lightener or color, adding natural dimension and depth.

I-TIP EXTENSIONS-

I-Tip Extensions are applied strand by strand and secured using a small, silicone-lined bead. Because there is no adhesive, glue, or heat involved, this method offers a flexible, lightweight attachment while maintaining the integrity of your natural hair.

The individual placement allows for precise customization and natural movement. I often incorporate I-Tips around the hairline or blend them with other methods to create softness and fullness in delicate areas without adding bulk. I-Tips can also be strategically placed to create subtle highlight or lowlight effects, adding dimension and depth without additional color services.
