Features and technology of tress hair extension

Beautiful and thick hair is admirable. And many girls want to have just such. This is not always possible for various reasons. But you can fulfill your desire to have long, smooth and well-groomed strands. This is where modern technologies come to the rescue. Recently, hair extensions on tresses have become popular. The features and technology of tress hair extensions are well known to the masters of their craft. But it is also useful for the client to know what the procedure is about before deciding on it.

Tress extensions are used when a certain length is needed or when you want to make your hair thicker. Hair extensions on tresses can be carried out using natural or artificial material. The width of the strands will vary depending on where they will be secured. Narrower ones are attached on the sides, wider at the back of the head. Hair can be extended for short and long periods of time. In the first case, they use such a method as attaching strands to hairpins. In the second case, with sewing a polymer tape to natural hair.

Hair varies in type. The so-called European and Asian are considered harsh and more thorough care is recommended for them, but the Slavic soft and light are suitable for many and are in high demand. Accordingly, their cost is higher than other types.

Artificial curls will be much cheaper.Their length can be absolutely any, unlike natural ones, the same can be said about the color, but they also need care no less natural. This option is most likely suitable for those cases that do not provide for long-term use. For example, for some festive evening or important event.

Tress extension can be removable and non-removable. Moreover, the first method can be carried out even at home without the help of a master. With hairpins, the strands are easily attached to the hair and are also easily removable. Of course, it is impossible to carry out the procedure qualitatively on your own. An assistant is still needed, but it is not at all necessary for him to have any experience in this area.

When using the second method, you cannot do without a professional. Here, proper hair separation is essential in order to secure the bands accurately. In those places where the weft will be fixed, pigtails are braided. A strand is attached to each pigtail using a special thread. Due to the tight fit to the head, it is possible to achieve the root volume of the hair. This method is also called African American.

The French extension technique resembles what is done with wefts. But the difference is that regular braids replace braids. This is the name for very tight pigtails that fit snugly to the surface of the head. They can be woven in semicircles and diagonally. It all depends on the effect you want to achieve - to make your hair thicker, fuller or longer. The Brazilian version is distinguished by the fact that fake strands are woven directly into your own hair.

Ideally, with hair extensions, it would be nice to visit a hairdresser, where they can provide full care. But if this is not possible, you can do it yourself. If artificial strands have been used, it is not recommended to dye them.

Long hair allows you to experiment and create different hairstyles. But you should treat your hair with care, comb it gently, do not tug, do not dry it out. Even if you pull it carelessly, nothing terrible will happen, it can only weaken a strand, but your own hair will not suffer. In extreme cases, if there is such a need, the tresses can be removed; of course, you will have to work hard and use an assistant. You need to take care of your hair, like your own, wash with good shampoos, use balms, masks, serums. If you have to go outside when there is a strong wind, you should collect your hair in a bun or braid so that it does not get too tangled.

The undoubted advantages of the procedure include the following factors.

• Build-up on tress is considered environmentally friendly. The thing is that there is no harmful effect on the scalp. No chemical or thermal treatment is applied. The cost of such a procedure is lower than that of the same capsule extension. In addition, much less time is spent. At the most, the whole event will take about 2 hours, while other types of extensions can last up to 6 hours.
• You can wear them for a long time, while the correction does not need to be done so often, it all depends on how quickly the hair grows. When the hair grows back more than 2 centimeters, the braid becomes less tight and the tape does not hold as well. Therefore, you need to intertwine the braid and fasten the tape again.
• The strands do not cause any inconvenience. Only on the first day there may be a feeling of slight tightness, but it will quickly pass.
• By doing this procedure, there is a chance to improve not only long hairstyles, but also to diversify short ones. You can dilute your hairstyle with multi-colored strands or just a different shade that differs from your own.

There are also negative aspects, although there are very few of them. High hairstyles and ponytails should be avoided as there is a risk that tresses may be visible. Brushing takes longer and should be more thorough and neat. You need to comb each strand separately, and first your own, then extended. Some people are worried about tightly braided braids, but this does not apply to everyone, usually the discomfort disappears on the second or third day after the procedure.

This type of procedure may not be suitable for every girl. If there are problems with the scalp, increased sensitivity, then, most likely, tresses will cause discomfort and will only aggravate the situation.

Hair that is too short will not work either, the hair should be at least shoulder length. The longer your own curls, the better. As for medical contraindications, they include high blood pressure. In other cases, beautiful long hair will bring only positive emotions.
