Hair Extensions 101
Which Type of Hair Extensions Are Best For You?
During our exclusive consult here at Glo, we’ll look into all the factors and learn about exactly what you’re looking for in order to find the best hair extensions type for you. We’ll study your hair and scalp, assess your hair type, talk about your lifestyle, work, and activities and decide which types are the best match.
Hair Extensions are generally grouped according to the application method, and we specialize in the following:
Fusion Hair Extensions
Using a low-heat application, your fusion hair extensions are fixed to small sections of your own hair using a keratinized protein bond – ensuring a beautiful and natural look.
Tape in Hair Extensions
Tape-in extensions are made of human Remy hair. Each weft is sandwiched in between small sections of your natural hair close to your scalp, secured by a medical grade adhesive tape.
Clip In Hair Extensions
Clip In Hair Extensions apply instantly, require no commitment and can be removed and reapplied whenever you want. Incredible looks and flexibility.
Hand Tied Wefts
Using different variations of a beaded row method, a base row is created with beads and string, then wefts of hair are attached with a needle and nylon thread, positioned above and below each bead to conceal the bead itself.
Maintenance is one of the most important factors when deciding which extensions are right for you. We’ll explain the different techniques and how they can affect comfort, durability, styling and at home care so you’ll have the confidence to move forward knowing exactly what you need.
