FAQ
What are handtied/genius/micro extensions?
Handtied or genius extensions actually refers to the hair used during an extension install - often called a weft. A weft is a collection of hair that is sewn or adhered on to their own base or thread. They are some of the thinnest in the extension world which helps keep them light and undetectable. We then use multiple wefts on a hidden, beaded row foundation to allow for maximum comfort and flexibility.
How many rows do I need?
The rule of thumb is one row adds thickness and volume and minimal length. Two rows will usually get you 3-5” of length pending your own natural density.
Can I bring my own hair?
We understand hair is an investment, and if you still have good, usable hair - we will reinstall on a case by case basis.
How Long Does Your Natural Hair Need To Be For Extensions?
There are many factors that can dictate this, but generally speaking, it depends on what your goal is. Ideally past shoulders. If you are looking to add just thickness, length should be between chin and shoulders. We would be able to give you a more concrete answer with a consultation.
What methods do you offer?
After many classes and certifications, we’ve learned that it is not a one size fits all, and not all methods work for every head and hair type. We love being able to take all the knowledge and experience we’ve gained and customize it to what works for you. But don’t worry, it will be seamless, undetectable, hidden, and comfortable.
Can you workout with extensions?
You can absolutely work out with them. I suggest wearing in a top knot, low pony, or braids to keep them out of the way. Make sure to brush afterwards and blow dry top of wefts if hair is wet from sweat.
What if I’m unhappy with my hair?
We pride ourselves on open and honest communication. We are always happy to make an adjustment to your color and/or extensions if informed within 2 weeks of service.
