If you have landed on this page, you are most likely interested in what hair extensions can do for you. Sometimes, looking into hair extensions can be a little confusing, and unless you are already experienced, it can be hard to know what method of application, length and colours you require.
You may be frustrated of looking at your flat and limp hair, and would like to add some volume and bounce for a natural but glam finish, or maybe your hair never seems to grow past a certain length and you’re dreaming of long flowing locks…
A free, no obligation consultation with us is the best way to find out if having hair extensions is the right choice for you, and if so, what methods, thickness and length will be best suited to you.
If you are not ready yet to come for a consultation, we have put together some handy information to help you find what options could be right for you...
Tape Hair Extensions
What are they?
Tape extensions are paper thin strips of hair about 1.5 inches wide. One strip lays under a section of your natural hair, and a second strips lays on top of the bottom section, creating a ‘sandwich’. Your natural hair lays in between the two tape strips. A very precise amount of natural hair goes in between each tape.
Who are they suitable for?
Tapes lay completely flat to the head, are ultra comfortable and often undetectable in your hair. They are perfect for clients looking for a natural finish, those looking to add pops of colour, or those with naturally fine hair / medium thickness hair.
How long do they last in my hair?
Typically, they last 6 - 10 weeks before you need them removed and reapplied. Just like any other hair, however, it depends on how well you take care of them, how quickly your hair grows, and how thick or thin your natural hair is.
How long does a fitting take?
From start to finish, a typical tape fitting takes just 2 hours, including the cutting, blending and styling.
Flat Track Weave Hair Extensions
What are they?
Flat-track weave hair extensions are attached to the head by first taking a small section of natural hair and securing it in a micro or nano ring to create a track. The wefts of hair are then sewn in with thread around the ring using closed blanket stitches to secure the weft into the hair.
Who are they suitable for?
Flat track weaves are suitable for most clients thanks to their versatility and density options. They are suitable for clients with medium strength - strong hair and when customised and carefully considered clients with naturally fine hair.

Nano Ring Hair Extensions
What are they?
Nano rings are tiny copper rings. The main difference between mini locks and nano rings, is that nano rings are 90% smaller and sit behind the hair instead of in-front. Typically they are around the size of a ballpoint pen nib. Nano rings are almost undetectable in the hair. A small section of hair is pulled through the ring, and a nano tip hair extension is placed under the natural the hair. The ring is then clamped down to secure the nano tip and ring into the natural hair.
Who are they suitable for?
Nano rings are best suited to clients with fine to medium hair. They are best used for blending and in combination with more full coverage methods.

Mini locks are small copper rings. Mini locks are almost undetectable in the hair when applied well. A small section of natural hair is pulled through the ring, and a I tip / stick tip hair extension is placed on top
of the natural the hair. The ring is then clamped down to secure the I tip / stick tip and ring into the natural hair.
Who are they suitable for?
They are most commonly tolerated by medium - thick hair. Generally they are not suitable for extremely fine or damaged hair. They are best used for blending and in combination with more full coverage methods.
