Hair extension is a term in a broad category of hair addition products that add synthetic or natural human hair for longer, fuller, thicker hair with improved or different texture and enhanced or a altered color.

Hair additions can be a hairpiece that is clipped in for a day, a weft that is clipped, glued or sewn in for a month or individual extensions that are braided in, braids that are sewn in and hair extensions applied by metal clamps, glue, wax, plastic shrink tube or polymer base and worn for 6 – 24 weeks.

Hair Extensions of Texas uses Cold Fusion Human Hair Extensions that can be worn for up to 6 months.

Why use hair extensions?

Hair extensions provide the professional stylist the opportunity to make a dramatic change in the overall appearance of the hair and it's wearer.

Properly applied, hair extensions can provide unlimited choices in style, color, length, thickness and texture. Extensions add dimension like thicker bangs or a wispy fringe that would take months or years to grow. Bad haircuts can be corrected with just a few well placed extensions in spot areas. Hair extensions are a great new tool to experiment with new styles and colors. For the person suffering from thin hair due to illness, aging or heredity, hair extensions can provide healthy, thick, beautiful, natural looking hair in almost any length, color or style. Extensions can take years off a client's appearance.

Are hair extensions comfortable?

The term hair extension describes a number of various forms and techniques for adding hair. In our studio we use tiny individual bundles of 100% human hair applied by experienced professionals using Hair Extensions of Texas’ exclusive, revolutionary techniques and tools. Properly applied, hair extensions are the most comfortable to wear, the longest lasting, the least detectable and the kindest to your own hair!

Will hair extensions damage existing hair?

The integrity of the client’s own hair is never compromised! Hair Extensions of Texas' salon owner Crystal Ann uses and has developed  techniques that are absolutely state-of-the-art in hair extensions.

Traditional glues, hot waxes and sewing, shrink tubing and metal clamps are often damaging to hair; these methods are not used in the Hair Extensions of Texas System. Instead, a pre-bonded 100% human hair strand is seamlessly integrated with individual hair strands using a durable polymer similar to the natural Keratin protein found in human hair.

Are hair extensions easily detected?

The point of attachment is virtually invisible and provides unlimited styling options. We work with different sized polymer bonds that are the same color as the hair strand. The average bond is about the circumference of grain of rice and can be as small as the tip of a toothpick. This permits the application of very fine strands in areas where other hair systems cannot be used because of the difficulty of disguising the point of attachment.

Do hair extensions require special care?

After the application, the hair can be treated and styled just like the client’s own natural hair. As with any new style, the hair professional teaches the client styling and maintenance techniques and recommends appropriate hair care products.

How long can hair extensions be worn?

Applications can be worn for up to 6 months and reused for up to one year.

How durable are hair extensions?

The polymer bond meshes with the individual hair strands rather than merely coating the surface of the natural hair. The resulting bond is extremely resilient, allowing strands that will withstand the most vigorous lifestyles for up to 6 months!

How long does it take to have hair extensions applied?

From the time of your consultation, you can have your custom extensions applied as early as the next day. If your deposit, which is usually 50% of the balance by cash or 100% of the balance by check, is paid before 2pm on Monday-Thursday your extensions can be ordered for the next day after 11am. Otherwise, your extensions can be ordered and arrive within 3 days of receipt of payment. Deposits are always required PRIOR to your extensions being ordered. If you are wanting to have them applied quickly after the consultation, it is advisable to come prepared.

The length of time needed for application varies depending on the number of hair extensions be applied, existing hair condition and style, and the look to be achieved. A full style change would obviously take much longer than repairs to fill in shape. Applications typically take anywhere from 2-4 hours to complete. The average lengthening and thickening process takes about 3 hours.
