NOW OFFERING MACHINE TIED WEFTS AND KERATIN HAIR EXTENSIONS

Machine-Tied Wefts

• What it is: A long strip (“weft”) of hair that is sewn in by hand, making it very full and flexible.

• Application:

• Installed by beading small sections of natural hair.

• The weft is then sewn onto those beads/braids with thread.

• Look & Feel:

• Very flat and natural against the scalp.

• Good for people who want volume and length in larger sections.

• Maintenance:

• Needs to be moved up every 6–10 weeks as your natural hair grows.

• Reusable hair if cared for properly. Hair Lasts 1 year.

• Best for: Adding lots of volume and length with less strain on individual strands.

Keratin Extensions

• What it is: Small bundles (strands) of hair with a keratin tip (like a little bead).

• Application:

• A heating tool melts the keratin tip, fusing it to a small section of your natural hair.

• Bonds are discreet and spread throughout the head.

• Look & Feel:

• Natural-looking because the bonds blend in with your own strands.

• Moves more like your natural hair since the strands are individual.

• Maintenance:

• Lasts about 3–4 months before needing removal/reinstallation.

• Not reusable (most of the time).

• Best for: People who want a natural, strand-by-strand look with less bulk at the roots.

✅ Quick Difference:

🌸 Machine-Tied Wefts

Pros:

• ✅ Super flat against the scalp → natural, seamless rows.

• ✅ Adds lots of volume quickly (great for thicker looks).

• ✅ Hair is reusable → you only pay for install/maintenance after the first purchase.

• ✅ No heat or glue used in application (gentler on natural hair).

• ✅ Move-ups are quicker than a full reinstallation. 1 hour to install. 20 min removal.

Cons:

• ❌ Rows can feel tight the first few days after install.

• ❌ Not as customizable strand by strand (heavier in sections).

• ❌ Needs move-ups every 6–10 weeks (can’t go longer).

• ❌ Can be uncomfortable for people with very fine or fragile hair.

🔥 Keratin Extensions

Pros:

• ✅ Very natural movement → each strand moves like your own hair.

• ✅ Bonds are discreet, blend in easily even if you wear hair up.

• ✅ Lasts longer (3–4 months before full removal).

• ✅ Perfect for people with fine or thin hair since bonds are lightweight.

• ✅ No need for frequent salon visits for move-ups.

Cons:

• ❌ Hair is not reusable (you’ll need new hair each install).

• ❌ Takes longer to install/remove (more expensive service).

• ❌ Heat is used in bonding (small risk of damage if not applied/removed correctly).

• ❌ If not cared for properly, bonds can slip or get sticky.

✨ Rule of Thumb:

Machine-Tied Wefts → Best if you want big transformation, lots of fullness, reusable hair, and don’t mind salon visits every couple months.

Keratin Extensions → Best if you want a natural, low-maintenance, strand-by-strand look and can invest in fresh hair each time.
