The hair extension methods I specialise in are: Fusion Micro Bonding, Pre-bonded and Micro Rings. where around 200-300 individual strands are attached with hot bonding resin to create a seal about the shape and size of a grain of rice.

I specialise in these methods as they have been proven to be the most popular methods of attachment. Many celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Jordan, and Cheryl Cole prefer these methods. There are many other methods of attachment which all have their downfalls, but these individual strand methods allow you to have natural looking beautiful long hair which you can wear in any style, without the cost of high street salons (who generally charge £100 per hour to fit the extensions).

There are two differnt types of hair I use. For the fusion bonded method I use 100% European human hair which is cuticle-correct and is one of the best quality hair available for extensions. Unlike Chinese or Indian hair which is coarse and cheap to buy, and is used by most extensionists. I have been using this hair for over seven years and my clients are always very happy with the quality! For the Pre-bonded and Micro Rings I use nail tip and stick tip 100% Human Remy Russian hair. Russian hair is said to be the best in the world and stays silky, does not shed and is tangle free.

The type of bonds I use are Keratin based, which is a natural protein and will not damage your hair. It is kind to your hair and very easy to remove unlike lots of other types of glue which tend to be silicon based. Silcon glue is very hard to remove and may cause damage to the natural hair. This is why hair extensions get a bad reputation! For the micro rings I use tiny links which are made from metal with an inner plastic coasting which is kind to your hair. These are also very small, like the Keratin bonds, and are not visible. There are different coloured micro rings to match your hair colour.

I offer a free consultation before the fitting so you can find out everything you need to know about what is involved before deciding whether to go ahead. I will discuss all your requirements with you, answer any questions you have, and colour match your hair for the perfect extension colour.

A consultation isn’t always required if you have healthy hair which is just one colour. If this is the case you can have a telephone / email consultation and post a hair sample to me for colour matching. Some clients who live too far away have a consultation conducted over the phone and then just post a sample of their hair to be colour matched.

The hair extensions generally take up to 3 hours to be applied and will last for three months if they are looked after properly. Micro ring extensions can last for up to 6 months with regular maintenance. It is always best to follow the recommended aftercare instructions and have the extensions maintained after 4 - 6 weeks, and removed after 3 months (bonded). My general rule is that your hair should be long enough to fit into a ponytail, even if just a short one. Extensions can be applied to shorter hair but a consultation is necessary before the fitting appointment as your hair may be unsuitable, and some bonds may be visible with very short hair.
