HAIR EXTENSIONS
Hair extensions are used to add length or to increase the volume of the hair. There are many different types of hair extensions and qualities, ranging from 100% Remy to synthetic. At One10 Beauty House, your extensions will always be top-quality, 100% Remy Human Hair by Bellami.
WEFT extensions
Wefted hair is either machine or hand-tied together across the top of the hair and is installed by using a beaded method, where beads are attached to the natural hair and the weft is sewn to the bead anchor. This method provides voluminous, full coverage and allows for easy removal and reapplication. Hair is reusable and regular maintenance is needed every 6-8 weeks.
TAPE-IN EXTENSIONS
Tape-in hair extensions are 1 1/2” wefts that have medical grade adhesive on the back of them. The natural hair is “sandwiched” between the two wefts securing and sealing the bond. Hair is reusable and regular maintenance is needed every 6-8 weeks.
I-TIP EXTENSIONS
This method is a single strand method, meaning the extensions are applied in a 1:1 ratio extension hair to natural hair. A bead (usually made of copper or aluminum) is weaved onto the natural hair. The I-Tip extension is then inserted into the bead and, using a specific tool, the bead is clamped down to secure the extensions to the natural hair. Hair is reusable and regular maintenance is needed every 6-8 weeks.
K-TIP EXTENSIONS
This fusion method is installed using a heating element which safely melts the Keratin Tips onto your own hair. A silicone additive on the K-tip helps to create a protective coating for your natural hair strands and are bonded close to the roots of the hair. Hair is not reusable and remains attached until it is removed by a professional after 4-6 months.
CLIP-IN EXTENSIONS
Clip-in extensions are temporary hair that can be applied by simply “clipping” them in to the root section of your hair and removed whenever you’d like. They vary in size from one-inch to a wide weft containing 3-5 clips at once. Clip-in extensions can easily be maintained, but they need to be removed from your natural hair and washed/dried separately.
How do I know which type of extension bond is best for me?
Our stylists will always do a thorough consultation with you to ensure that the hair type they use best matches your lifestyle and desired look. While some heads of hair may only use one type, others may have a combination of various types.
What kind of hair does Bellami use?
Bellami only uses full 100% full-cuticle human Remy hair that has been ethically sourced from Asia, specifically the western and northern regions bordering eastern Europe and southern Russia. The area offers hair at a naturally lighter level, making colour lightening a gentler process. Bellami’s factory implements the highest production standards and is 9001 certified.
