How many "rows" do I need?
If your goal is to match your current length and add fullness, or you have fine hair and want to add a couple inches of length "one row" is usually enough. If lots of length is the goal "two rows" is usually a must to ensure a seamless blend from your natural hair to the extension hair. See first time extension packages below for options and pricing!
What products are necessary?
At my studio I carry, and recommend a line specifically for extensions. This line is made of up a shampoo, conditioner, and leave in spray. Those are they only products crucial for the extension hair. You can feel free to use any finishing product after the hair is styled to add texture or hold.
WHAT NOT TO USE- anything with sulfates, or protein. And no oils. If you are ever unsure PLEASE, ask me. Failure to use to right products can result in ruining the hair beyond repair. Look at the hair as an investment! Take care of it, and it will last a long time!
What is the upkeep?
Move-ups are necessary every 6-8 weeks. Some can wait 9, it just really depends on how quickly your hair grows. Move-ups are when we take out the old beads and reattach them to new hair to make sure we maintain the health of the hair and scalp. The hair itself should last up to a year if properly taken care of and if the suggested products are used.
How do I take care of them at home?
Don't you worry about a thing... when we are done with your first install I'll be sending you off with a little goodie bag to help maintain your extensions at home and you'll also be given an "At Home Maintenance Guide". This guide will walk you through how to wash, style, and sleep with your new extensions as well as some tips and tricks!

What the heck are extensions??
I am certified in SKW Extensions. This method was developed by a nurse practitioner with the health of the hair and scalp in mind. I'm currently obsessed with the "hidden beaded row" version because the beads are totally hidden and the transition between the natural hair and wefts is seamless!
Hand tied extensions are simply a way to enhance one's locks. Whether you are craving length, fullness, or both... this method of extensions is a great way to do all of this without any glue, tape, or anything "sticky" that can cause damage to your natural hair.
To install the hair I create a "track" with plastic beads clamped to sections of your natural hair. This gives the hair wefts something to attach to. The hair is attached by weaving a nylon thread through the hair. If done right, (the only way I do it!) this process should be painless and comfortable.
