Jade’s review on Hair Extension Course in Glasgow By Belle

Micro Ring Hair Extensions

This is the process that the Movie Stars use to turn short hair into long, flowing locks!  There is no glue, heat or chemicals needed.  The individual hair extension is combined with a few strands of your natural hair, and then it is passed through this tiny micro ring with a special technique by the stylist.  The ring basically ties the two together, securing them in place.  This process takes less time than the fusion method, but it’s a great way to take repair a bad hairstyle!

Fusion Bonded Hair Extensions

This process uses heat in combination with a form of “glue”, most typically a keratin protein solution, wax or polymer.  The hair is divided into sections with a plastic template.  Then each individual hair extension is glued to a strand of your existing hair.  Does this sound like a long, boring process?  You are right!  But the results produced look much more natural than any other method and also last much longer.

Different Hair Extension Methods:  Glue Method and Non-Glue Method

Two of the more common types of hair extension methods include fusion bonded hair extensions and micro ring hair extensions, but there are several other methods as well.  Before you make a commitment with a hair salon, you might want to do a little research.  Most professional stylists who have a reputation for excellence will most likely offer a free consultation.  Make sure that you take advantage. 

They should also have some pictorial examples of the finished work, from a variety of different attachment methods, both glue and non-glue techniques.  Your specific and unique hair type will also come into play, which is another reason that a professional will want to meet with you beforehand.  Hair that is not “cuticle correct” tends to tangle and matt during some procedures.
