Before & After Brunette Hair Extensions By Jaclynn Kate

From the past couple of hair extension clients I've has in my chair I have a few things I would like to address to those of you who are thinking about getting them done. First all, If you are looking to just achieve some length NO you do not need to get 100 pieces in your head. Save some money, get only 60 pieces! Second all, pleaseeeee stop coloring your hair yourself at home! I just put in 60 pieces into one of my clients head & told her over and over again DO NOT color your hair at home! I know how much of an up keep blonde can be, but please don't do it at home! If you overlap bleach onto your extensions they could break! If they break it will be a waste of money for you! Save yourself the head ache, the time & annoyance and just go into a salon (or come see me) and get it done by a professional!

Also I keep getting asked if I can achieve the Ombre look on someone by using hair extensions. My answer would be yes to an extent. I can simply add the hair extensions in places to make it look like you have an ombre color as long as you dont want a three dimensional Ombre!


On another note. February 2012 I got 102 pieces of hair put in my head and I took them out in September.
Below the blonde is me! My before and after of the extensions! Not bad right?!

Here is me now! I took the extensions out and had sixty pieces that were still pretty long & I colored them to a dark brow! I then bought a half head of extensions and added them to my year old extensions! This just goes to show, that if you TAKE CARE of your extensions properly, THEY WILL LAST!As you can see from both of my before photos my hair just doesn't grow longer than a little past my shoulders. Hence why I do extensions. I personally love the volume and the length. With the length I can play with it a lot more & curl it a bunch of different ways. Which I love!

Back to the statement I said above, that if you take care of them they will last. When I say that I mean getting your hair professionally colored, using the right shampoo & conditioner, braiding it at night if your a rough sleeper, and using a good hydrating leave in conditioner. All of these things will ensure and prolong the life of your extensions!

Above is another one of my clients who only added sixty pieces to her hair. She then came back the next week to add another twenty to the sides. She felt cause her layer was so short she needed more hair in the front of her face. This client has very curly/wavy hair so she does have to straighten her hair a lot. With clients like her I always suggest a good leave in conditioner that also is a heat protectant. A lot of times we are so used to flat ironing our hair we forget how high and how hot the iron gets. So keep that in min next time you are flat ironing it.

This lovely lady found me from my blog! Love when clients find me from my blog! As you can see in her before photo she has super super thin hair. She also receives the 60 pieces being a half head of extensions and she did trim them about two inches. She felt they were too long for her age. The end result looks amazing on her & so natural. The color blended great too!

If you have any questions on hair extensions, or even a hair cut or color you want done or to get done. Send me an email, a text or give me a call. I answer all emails & if I can't get to my phone I always return calls. Let me know your hair problems & I'll let you know how we can solve it together!

Let's Face It. We All Want Long Hair. Don't Lie.

Let's Face It. We All Want Long Hair. Don't Lie.

Hair Extensions By Jaclynn Kate

Yes, we all want long luxurious hair. We see the Kardashians with their long hair, we see the Victoria Secrets models with their long hair, we see some random girl shopping at CVS and think WTH why can't I have that crazy long hair too? Well ladies you can. Best part about you being able to get what you want... it doesn't cost you an arm and a leg! Hair Treats Hair Extensions are incredibly affordable.  Your not looking at paying $1200.00 for hair that's only going to last you two months. Hair Treats Hair Extensions will last you anywhere from 6-8 months.

Another great quality of these extensions are how on point they are with your natural hair color. Color matching your natural locks is never an issue. Our J&L ring has every color from almost WHITE to PINK! Moving forward you can do a beautiful color combination of high lights & low lights to give that added dimension you need when you are curling your hair for a girls night out! Sorry Kardashians, your not the hottest anymore! 

Not really looking for length? Maybe your just looking to add some volume.. no biggie. Hair Treats Hair Extensions come 22'' long & you can cut them to any length you desire. Been thinking about doing an Ombre but your nervous about coloring your hair? Get a couple of bags of hair extensions and place them where the Ombre color would go! Boom! No damage done to your hair! Not even by the harsh bleach! 

Below is one of my clients I had this past week in my salon. As you can see in the first photo I took, it was before I even did her corrective color. She had some of her natural hair color coming through & a kind of 'orange' looking band after & then the pretty blonde she liked. I had to correct her color first, give her a slight trim & then apply the two different color hair extensions after.

These pictures here, are her after pictures. I did a slight trim after I took the photos, just so she would have a more blunt looking base line. I should have flat ironed her hair before I took the photo it looks like the hair could be a bit smoother. However it does go to show how they look RIGHT after being applied to your hair without any form of styling.

Who doesn't love & want long hair? But for that price?

Hair Extensions By Jaclynn Kate

Time after time, consultation after consultation the number one question I get asked is price. While the price you are paying for your hair extensions is a great deal, I also like to urge my clients as well as everyone else's clients to take your HAIR into consideration. Consider this. Yes, you can go get a bag of cheap hair from a random hair shop in downtown providence and get them sowed in. Or yes, you can go order some hair online and get it glued in. Yes, you can also look up a random shop online and get extensions put in for maybe $200.00.

However what you are not taking into considering is your HAIR. Glue, doesn't matter what kind of glue is DAMAGING to your hair. Oh em gee, I have seen girls come into the salon with Matt's in the back of their head from the glue a 'stylist' put in to attach their hair extensions. Another thing is the braids. When you 'corn row' a hair extensions in, you are leaving room for matting, pulling, and knotting of your hair strand. Again leaving you with damaged hair and ripping your hair out in the end.

Hair extensions should be treated with extra care, and should be an option to those of us who can't seem to get our hair to grow down our backs. They shouldn't leave holes in our head, & they shouldn't tear our hair out if done by a licenced cosmetologist. If you are uncertain of someones knowledge on extensions ASK to see their certificate before allowing them access to your head.

This is a before picture of one of my clients. As you can see her hair is just below her shoulders, but it holds NO density & is semi broken on the ends from at home over bleaching.

The photo here to the right is before hair extensions and the left is after i put in a half head of extensions. Which is about 60 pieces of hair.

The photo to the right is showing how I put the extension in the hair. Is has a bead on the end. I 'loop' your hair through the center of the extension & clamp the bead on to the hair strand. No glue. No braids. No tracks. No damage.

Back to the price questions I am frequently asked, It's all on how many extensions you want to put in your head. You can get 60-80-100 pieces put in your head its what YOU want to see. If you just want to add length, most of the time you can pull off just 60 pieces. Now if your looking for full vava voom Victoria secrets hair, I'm going to suggest 100 pieces & you'll never regret it.

Some more questions I am ask:

Q. How long does the process take?

JK. Depends 60 pieces will take me about an hour, where 100 pieces can take me an hour & half to two hours.

Q. Can I manage my color with the hair extensions?

JK. Yes. The bead on the end of the extension grows out with your hair strand therefor prolonging the life of your hair extension. So in between growth time you can color your roots to the desired shade of hair coloring you like. Again we urge clients not to do their hair color at home. Especially if they are bleaching cause you DON'T want to get it on the extensions. This goes for highlights as well.

Q. Will they ruin my hair?

JK. I can say from experience of having 102 in my head, they are not going to ruin your hair.

Q. How long will they last.

JK. Six to eight months if maintained properly. I.E. using a heat protectant & not burning your hair with a flat iron ect.

Q. Do I need a certain shampoo & conditioner?

JK. Just like with any professional service you want to maintain it. Hair treats can be kind of dry I recommend a moisture shampoo & leave in conditioner. DON'T leave the salon without great shampoo. 

Again you can see here in the top two photos my clients hair is short & very thin on the ends. The photo on the bottom left is how I apply the hair extensions & the photo to the bottom left is the end result.

This is the full photo of the end result. I just could not for the life of me figure out how to turn it around! It kept up loading like this! Grrr.

Again any questions about hair extensions you want to get done or maybe already have done please don't hesitate to ask!!
