nanobead extensions

a breakdown of what the title means:

100% human hair = no silicones/synthetics 

virgin hair = not chemically treated

remy hair = hair directly from the donor

double drawn = when the majority of short lengths are removed from a bundle leaving only long lengths for a thicker look 

European hair is the most expensive due to its silky texture, colour options, and where it originates from. all hair extensions are 100% human remy hair, handmade to order. double drawn, so its thick from root to tip. each set is donated from the same donor. the hair is made to order and ships from Russia. 

the hair is virgin remy hair, so each set is customized and arrives within 2-3.5 weeks. my goal for hair extensions, is to offer the highest quality of customized extensions at an affordable price. 

over 40 shades, lengths up to 32", and custom textures.  

• any colouring services while wearing extensions is not recommended, and require a two-part appointment ($50 fee add-on to regular maintenance appointment)
• shampoo 1-2x a week, conditioning the ends, and a masque 1x a week 
• try to avoid purple shampoo if possible, as they can dry out the hair 
• detangle the root area with your fingers daily
• avoid brushing the roots 
• never sleep with wet hair
• when sleeping, use a silk pillowcase and scrunchy to tie the hair back in a low-pony or braid 
• if swimming, make sure to coat the ends in serum or leave-in to protect the hair extensions absorbing environmental factors 
• brush your hair lengths throughout the day in gentle strokes, from the ends up 
• the best brush is one with soft, natural bristles
• healthy, clean products 
• no oil at the roots, this will cause slippage 
• no perm solutions or straightening treatments 
• avoid applying heat at the bonds, this can melt the bond and create a fusion bond on the hair. this can create damage to the hair, and be difficult to remove
• heat protectant, including UV
• oils, serums, leave-ins, MUST be used to ensure you are adding hydration back into the extensions. the hair is not attached to the scalp, so it needs outside hydration as there is no follicle supplying nourishment to the hair
• avoid coconut oil, olive oil, and any other pure heavy oils
• what adds hydration are ingredients that are humectants. humectants attract water, some examples are aloe vera, shea butter, jojoba oil, glycerin, honey, and almond. olive oil is a humectant, but it is also thick and heavy
• maintenance appointments are crucial, skipping maintenance can result in hair loss and damage
• depending on how fast your hair grows and texture, maintenance appointments are every 5-8 weeks

although consultations are required for the final cost...

this guide will help you get an idea of what to expect:

1. the cost of hair and installation appointments are separate. the more hair needed, the higher the installation cost. this ranges from $100-$220+ tax.  

2. the maintenance cost (every 5-8 weeks), ranges from $120-$240+ tax. 

3. removals. these must be done professionally if you no longer wish to wear them. attempting to do it yourself can, and will cause extreme damage. even the pro's see other pro's! this ranges from $50-$125+ tax.

4. now, the cost of the hair. the average person wears between 100g-140g of hair. the cost for 20g of hair is $90-$120+ tax. this price range is due to length, styles, colours. 

for fine hair, you'll likely need 100g-140g. the cost sits between $500-$900+ tax and installation.

for thick hair, you will need more hair and at a higher installation cost. the cost of hair sits between $750-$1,200+ tax. 

long story short,

it's wise to budget for $700-$1,500+ tax, for both the cost of hair and installation.
