Before fusion installation. The removal process was particularly tricky, it was another brand that I don’t recommend.

Hair Extension Consultation

What happens during a consultation? First you can easily book an appointment online through my website www.fusionstylist.com choose the perfect day and time for you to come in and take 30 minutes to create a personalized plan for you During the consultation you will get to see all the hair extension methods that I offer, there are 5 of them. While crafting your personalized plan we will discuss your hair goals. Are you interested in adding length? How much length? Is density or length your first concern? We will talk about your current lifestyle and how you will be wearing your hair extensions. Up? Half-up? Under a helmet? We will also discuss your current hair color and the color of the hair extensions. Because I have access to many incredible hair extension companies I will be able to perfectly match your color to the extensions. We will not need to color them after we order them. This is a very important step in your consultation. I have a lot of clients who come from other places who have hair that does not match their hair. The stylists have colored it and it has faded out and damaged the hair extensions. Hair extensions shouldn’t be colored! Why would you color them when you can order them exactly as you need them. Currently these primo extension companies carry Ombré extensions, Balayage extensions, Blended extensions in every color and shade imaginable! There are hundreds of colors in all of these installation options. Let me tell you a little bit more about why you don’t want to color these expensive extensions.

  1. Hair extensions are colored at the factory with fabric/textile dye. They are colored with fabric dye to eliminate fading. When a stylist attempts to color extensions the results will not be good. Professional hair color and fabric dye don’t play well together. The extensions can be splotchy and muddy.

  2. Any color that is put onto the extensions will fade out pretty quickly, bummer.

  3. The cuticle of the hair extension really can’t take much more processing. Adding professional hair color will open up the cuticle of the hair extension causing more damage to this hair and shortening it’s life.

  4. Damaging the hair will lead to tangling and less enjoyable wear on your part and that is not what you want.

The only exception to this rule is a toner, which can be applied to slightly change the tone of the extensions. I still avoid doing this. I think that it is very important to order the correct color for your personal project.

After we have decided on your installation type, the amount of hair you need and the color you want we will move onto setting the appointment. I require a 50% deposit on all hair extension projects to order the hair and set the appointment.

Book a consultation so we can discuss your personalized project!

Curly Tape-In Extensions

I am happy to say that I finally found a company that has incredible quality tape in hair and they have a curly option!!! I have been looking and looking and looking for this option!! I know that tape-in’s are not at the top of everyone’s hair must have list, but they serve a purpose and they are a wonderful option. I use an incredible adhesive remover that does not ever leave your hair greasy or leave gummy residue in your hair. So if you are interested in tape-in extensions and you would like texture in those extensions then you are in luck! Come see me and we can talk about this option and the maintenance that would be involved with your particular project.

Hair Extensions for Density

Usually when people think of hair extensions they think of a large an intensive project. This does not have to be the case! Some of my favorite projects are adding just a bit of hair to increase the density without adding much or any length at all. Besides being a less expensive project it is also far less time consuming. Some clients only add 15-30 single strands of hair in the temple area to achieve a fuller, thicker look. Maintenance is a breeze for these projects sometimes taking as little as 20 minutes for a routine adjustment. If you are curious what a little bit of density would do for your hair schedule a consultation and we can talk about all the options that are available for you.
