As a makeover artist, each guest is like an amazing story.  Professional salon haircolor offers so much more than  “at home” “box haircolor”, when it comes to multi- dimensional looks.

Childrens’ haircolor glistens with different tones, and is rarely ever just one color.  Haircolor is one of the greatest creative services that salons have to offer.

Professionally speaking, I was once told that… “the right haircolor is; just that.  The right color”

All of the guidlines, of haircolor placement, hold true when designing a clients new look with hair extensions.

Balmain Hair Extensions offer a variety of natural looking hair textures, and their hair extension/ haircolor palette is exquisite.

Their packaging is eye catching and makes for easy artist/client communications.   This enables studios to carry much of the hair extension inventory, on hand.  This is great…seeing immediate results can be right at your fingertips.

How do you wish your hair could be better?

Think about it for a minute.

 

Most of us have something that we might wish we could change.

There are a few misconceptions when it comes to hair extensions.

Hair extensions are not always viewed as practical, and hair extensions can be extremely practical.

How?  First of all, it is not always about adding length to your hair.  In some instances, Balmain Hair Extensions are installed to add more volume to the existing length; just for some fullness.

One example of this would be, if you have a bob haircut and one side goes under….and the other does not.  I have a client that falls into this category.  The reason why she has one side that will not go under is, that she lacks a little bit of hair density on that side.

Simple fix.  We added Balmain Hair Extensions just to that side of her hairstyle.  Just by adding extra density and thickness, her bob hairstyle had balance.

Practical and undetectable.

 

When it comes to designing looks, as a makeover artist, what is very important is “balance”.   Hair extensions are believable when the hair extensions are not too overpowering the stature of the guest wearing them.

What does all of this mean?  For example, I am 5′ 2″ and as much as I “dream” of having very long hair; I don’t.  Very, very long hair on petite woman actually will make them look shorter.

The opposite is true of very tall women.  Tall women can wear longer hair, and it will look balanced.

When it comes to dreaming about having a studio design your “dream” hair, do your homework.  Call on several studios and asked to see photographs of previous guests.

Some studios may even offer payment plans for your hair extension service.

 

Balmain hair extensions are of the highest quality.    They have 3 types of installation methods to appeal to all types of styling needs, and lifestyles.

As seen below,  Balmain Hair offers beautiful colors and great imagery.

The makeover story shown within this post is a “strand by strand” application.

Another suggestion, if considering wearing the Balmain Hair “strand by strand” option is, to have a couple of “test strands” installed.  This is highly recommended to see if it will be comfortable to wear.img_9935

The bonds are virtually undectable, and feel like a grain of “rice”.

Balmain Hair extensions are 100% real human, remy hair.

Remy hair means that the natural hair cuticle is going in the same direction.

Balmain hair is strong, beautiful and soft.  It orginates in China, and then the hair strands are reshaped into a “triobular” shape.  This makes the hair move and look very, very real.

The Balmain Hair extension “Fill-in” strands come pre-tipped with a keratin based bonding wax.

This is NOT GLUE.  There is some mis-information that exists about this fact.

***Important— Protect yourself and be sure that your hair extensions service is being provided by a certified hair extensionist.

The major hair extension manufacturer’s require certification on an individual stylist basis.  What does this mean?  Unfortunately, sometimes “information” is shared.  Especially when it comes to “strand by strand” bonding,  just be sure that you are getting what you are paying for.

Hair extensions are an investment and so is the education that goes into being knowledgeable about them.  From professional experience and being certified by Balmain Hair & Great Lengths Hair Extensions, the trainings can be between $1,000 – $2,500; to become certified.

One certificate DOES NOT cover an entire salon/studio.

There are many creative installation options, and when it comes to installation this is when it is important for there to be good judgement about who should wear hair extensions and who should not.

Some instances of when it is not recommended that hair extensions be worn are:

* Note enough natural hair density

* Regular sauna use–  hair extension bonds do not like excessive moisture

*  Too much time in a chlorinated pool or over exposure to the ocean

*  Recently given birth–

Hair’s natural shed rate will increase ( affects longevity of hair extensions)

*  Recently had chemo therapy –

adhesion of hair extensions may be affected

*  Heavy use of silicon based products.
