Can I Have A High Light & Low Light With Hair Extension?

Hair Extensions In Rhode Island By Jaclynn Kate


Many times I receive email inquiries from woman who already have a highlight & low light in their hair. So their concern is that their hair isn't going to blend if they do one solid color of extensions. And they're right. If I were to just go in and do one solid color of hair extensions, their hair wouldn't blend properly. What I usually do if have them come into the salon for a complimentary consultation & I color match their hair colors & match it to our extensions. 

It's that simple. Theirs NO need to order one solid color of hair extensions & THEN go back in & try to lighten them to the color of their highlights. Actually with our brand of extensions it is recommended that you DON'T highlights these extensions. They can & probably will break. 
This is my client Teresea, & as you can see in the top left photo she already had some over grown highlights, but she wanted to keep them. So what we decided to do was match the highlighted color to the hair extension & put a lot of that color towards the bottom so it looks like an Ombre color. 

Teresea put in 60 pieces to start & then came back for 20 more pieces to give her a more full look.  She likes to curl her hair a lot so these extensions work perfectly for her because they hold a curl for a long time!

In closing- if you are a stylist & are going to attempt to do a highlight lowlight extension. I'd suggest a little practise ahead of time so the client doesn't come out 'streaky'! Please email with any questions!! =]

Non Damaging Hair Extensions By Jaclynn Kate


I am asked many times when someone new inquires with me about my hair extension services, if they have to color the extensions to match their hair. I guess this question comes up a lot is cause I tend to post photos of blonde hair extensions. Whatever the case may be the answer to the question "do I have to color the extensions to match my hair' is generally no. 

With the brand of hair extensions I use, we have a wide variety of hair colors to choose from. The hair has already been throughly cleaned, processed & colored. So we tend to try to stray away from coloring the extensions if we don't have to. I have only come across the need to color these extensions when 1) their hair is a special kind of red 2) when they bough the extensions when they were blonde & then wanted to go brunette & 3)when the decided to try to add low lights.

Another question I am asked frequently is, 'what do I do if I have highlights? Will it blend'? I'd say yes. What I would then do is have you come in the salon for a complimentary consultation, color match your base color & then color match your high lights. Yup, it's that easy. Then when Im putting them in, I just make it look like you have natural highlights running through your hair.
Here is a great example of my client Marie, who received a high light/low light hair extension. I did NOT color her hair to match the extensions but just matched the hair extensions to her current hair color.

In closing- if you are a stylist & are going to attempt to do a highlight lowlight extension. I'd suggest a little practise ahead of time so the client doesn't come out 'streaky'! Please email with any questions!! =]
