What To Do With Thin, Short, Breaking, Not Growing Hair
Answering Hair Extension Questions By Jaclynn Kate
Hair thinning seems to be one of the biggest issues I see day to day in the salon. What causes hair thinning? Well a number or things. Try over use of a curling iron, not using a leave in conditioner, over drying your hair, drying out your hair with the wrong hair products, medication, medical issues you might not know you have. Or the one i diagnose most is over use of a flat iron. Ladies, believe it or not, you do not need to singe your hair off to make it straight! Putting your flat iron on a medium to low heat, will in fact straighten your hair. Also using a heat protectant is highly recommended. I personally use the It's a 10 Leave In Plus Keratin, it is a great easy to use product! It helps protect hair against heat elements, detangles, adds shine, repairs damage & split ends, gives body, and so much more. Great to use especially after a Keratin treatment to maintain sleek and smooth results!
Along with the thinning hair comes the breaking & then the hair becoming short. Not a lot of ladies feel beautiful with short hair. I for one don't. So we are seeing more an more ladies come in for Hair Extension consultations.
Here are some questions I get asked weekly during consultations:
Q. My hair is thinning, can I still get extensions?
JK. In all honesty I have to SEE and FEEL the hair to give you a direct answer. 99% of the time the answer is YES. Extensions are made to elongate the hair & give the hair a thinker look.
Q. Will the extensions damage my hair?
A. NO. Hair Treats Hair Extensions are none damaging hair extensions bonded to your hair by a bead.
Q. How long do the extensions last.
JK. If taken care of properly they will last you up to 6-8 months.
Q. I color my hair myself. Can I still color my hair with extensions?
JK. We do NOT recommend you coloring your hair yourself at home. If you over lap bleach on your extensions they could very well break off. Know this. The extensions are 100% human remny hair, however it is not human hair attached directly to the scalp. Its not getting the same treatment as 'alive' hair is. You will dry your hair out and the extensions could very well break if tried at home.
Q. What kind of shampoo should I use?
JK. We recommend the Hair Treats shampoo & Conditioner because it is highly concentrated & will give you extensions the moisture you need to make them LAST!
Q. How many do I need to get?
JK. Tricky questions. It all depends on what YOU want your result to be. If you are looking to just add length, depending on the density of your hair you could get away with just 60 peices. On another note, if you want to leave looking like you have Victoria Secret model hair I say go for the length, body & volume and get the full 100 pieces.
Q. Do I need to sleep with my hair a certain way?
JK. We suggest you trying to sleep with your hair in a braid. It will keep the extensions from tangling & prevent you from over brushing them.
Q. Do I need to fill my hair?
JK. No these are not glued in. Like I said before they are bonded with a bead. They grow out with your hair. Ever 4-6 week you come back into the salon, we open up the bead & push the extension back up & re clamp the bead onto your hair. Therefore prolonging the life of your extension.
I do offer complimentary consultations and would be happy to answer any questions, comments or concerns you might have about getting hair extensions. Or even about the ones you might already have in your head!
