To date, there are several techniques and techniques of hair extensions, consider them in more detail. There are 2 main types:

  • cold (more gentle).
Hotter
Cold

Italian technique (capsular hair extensions)

It is considered one of the most sought-after, practical and safe methods in the beauty industry market. It refers to hot, as its meaning lies in soldering keratin capsules with material to natural hair. If the Italian extension will be performed by a professional, then the capsules will be practically imperceptible, and even less imperceptible on the hair.

  • The build-up process is quite laborious, takes about 3-4 hours.
  • In very rare cases, there are discomforts during sleep, especially when it is time for correction.
  • As for the correction, sometimes after it the quality of the accrued strands decreases. This is due to the use of strong compounds (remuver), similar to acetone.

Also, capacity can be produced and microcapsules, but it will cost a little more than the usual capsular.

English technique

Also applies to hot build technology. However, choosing the English method, it should be noted that:

  • with hair extended by this method, one cannot go to baths and saunas;
  • Despite the fact that the extension of this technique is not so expensive, the capsules on the hair can be very noticeable, especially with neon lighting, when they begin to glow;
  • if you want to keep the hair as long as possible, you should forget about the hair dryer, the first weeks of washing your hair and some other uncomfortable moments that make this technique not the most demanded.

Despite the mass of drawbacks, the English method is still in demand, but it is being supplanted by newer and improved building techniques.

French, Spanish and Japanese building techniques are cold and more gentle. With these methods, the material on the capsules is attached to the natural hair with a special glue.

The Spanish technique is recommended for the fair sex with light curls, namely blondes and blond, because the capsules on their hair will be the least noticeable. After a few months, as a rule, the masters recommend making an easy correction to maintain the volume of curls.

If the hair is extended according to the Spanish technique, then you can visit the bath and sauna with them, they are not afraid of high temperatures.

There are also other methods of extension, which are used by modern stylists and hairdressers in beauty salons.

The owners recommend thin and brittle curls professionals to do tape building. It lasts for about 2 months, after which it is necessary to make a correction. Tape extension is a fastening of the material on the tape to natural hair, the process takes very little time, and therefore definitely suits women who want to get the desired length of hair in a short time.

How much do they hold?

How long the hairs last will last will depend not only on the type of procedure, but also on the hair that will be used for the extension. It is believed that the Slavic curls are of higher quality, compared to, for example, Asian.

On average, with hair extensions, you can walk for 3 to 6 months. The time span from the initial build-up to the subsequent correction depends on many factors. First of all, from the professionalism of the master who performed the buildup, then from the right care and, of course, from regular visits to the specialist.

To wear hair for a long time without correction is not only not aesthetically pleasing, but also often harmful to one's own hair.

Care

Requirements for the care of extended natural and artificial hair may vary. This is due to the fact that different methods have different requirements, which the builder must first tell about.

Consider a list of universal requirements for care, which apply to almost all methods.

  • To moisturize, nourish and saturate the hair with all necessary, only those hair care products that have neutral Ph values ​​should be used. Only such shampoos and balms will not injure the hair follicles.
  • It is very important to avoid contact with curlers, irons and other stylers. Capsules may be damaged.
  • You can not use oils and products with oils in the composition for cleansing hair and for various masks, they can also damage the capsules.
  • Shampooing should be done only for hair growth. It is extremely undesirable to go to bed with wet hair. However, there are those methods in which drying by the hair dryer is not allowed.
  • It is best to comb the raised curls with a special comb or brushes, better if they are with small teeth and no balls at the ends.
  • When going to a bath, sauna or swimming pool, it is best to wear a special protective cap on your hair. It is very important to remember that after any water procedures you should not twist hair too much, moreover, you should not comb them wet, otherwise the strands will be damaged. In this case, you should first use a towel to dry hair.
  • Long hair for the night can be braided in a braid, so they will be injured the least. And if they are long, then sleep with them will be more comfortable.

Of course, these are only general rules for the care of hair extensions; more detailed care will depend on the technology chosen. In addition, it is best to purchase special products for hair care, which are sold in beauty salons. Only professional brands can provide proper hair care.

However, many experts are inclined to think that herbal extracts, which can be made by yourself at home, are excellent for extended hair.

Correction

Depending on the extension technique, the correction has to be done in 1–6 months.

With the Italian extension technology, it will take about 2 months to correct, and with proper care and careful washing, it will take 2.5-3 months. The English technology of building can please within 4 months then the strands should be corrected.But the hair, accrued by the Spanish technology, almost always lasts up to six months, however, in some cases, the correction may be necessary after 4 months.

Understand that it is time to go to the master, you can carefully examine the capsules on the hair. If the curls are very grown out or tangled strands are visible, then this most likely indicates that it is time to visit a specialist. Also, do not forget about the time allotted to artificial hair. The longer you wear the regrown material, the greater the likelihood that native hair will begin to tear because the artificial capsule will slide down. If several months have passed, a visit to the master is highly desirable.

Remove strands with capsules, as a rule, can be after 3 months, and after 6, if in the future there is no desire to walk with hair extensions. It is, of course, best to address this issue to a professional, since the removal of the accrued strands at home is fraught with serious consequences.

Recovery

If you still removed hair extensions after a certain period of time, then they definitely need to recover. Otherwise, they will be rehabilitated for too long. Especially if the hair was worn for a year and experienced several corrections.

The negative effects after the build-up include excessive dryness and brittle hair, often their loss and cross-section at the ends. And this is not all the consequences, but in order to minimize all processes, immediately after removing the hair extensions, you will have to take care of the native hair as much as possible.

The best and nutritious procedures for the type of "happiness for the hair" is carried out in salons, however, some can be performed at home.

  • Great benefits not only to hair, but also to the body as a whole can bring vitamins and mineral complexes. However, prior to their use, consultation with a specialist is required. There are also some vitamin solutions that are rubbed directly into the hair, but they must also be prescribed by a specialist.
  • If possible, after removing the hair, it is recommended for some time to abandon the hair dryer and hot appliances: pleyok and straighteners.
  • For thick and elastic hair, water balance of the scalp is very important. But this does not mean that you need to wash it several times a day. Not at all, it's enough to drink several liters of water every day. This will not only help rehabilitate the hair, but it will be useful for the organism as a whole.
  • As a treatment for the scalp, it is better to use those in which there are natural ingredients that restore damaged hair and stimulate their natural growth.

Ideally, if those selected by the master, who did build.

      Summing up, it should be said that it is impossible to tell the exact time how long the accumulated strands will last. The master who will carry out the procedure of building up can certainly tell this, considering the condition of the hair and their needs. Moreover, the time from correction to correction will largely depend not only on technology, but also on proper care of hair. The same applies to the extension technology: there is no ideal one that will let you wear your hair for a year, each has its pros and cons.
