Weaves
Weft Hair Extensions are an excellent option for adding significant volume and density to the hair while covering a relatively small surface area. They can be applied using a variety of techniques to ensure maximum discretion, and are available in different sizes to improve comfort, sit flatter against the head, and feel lightweight when worn.
Wefts are typically applied in 1 to 4 rows, depending on your desired result. One row is perfect for adding natural-looking volume. Up to four rows can create a full, transformative result for those wanting maximum fullness.
​
Weft extensions can also be combined with other extension methods, such as Nano extensions, Tape extensions, and V Light, to achieve a seamless, blended finish that looks and feels completely natural.
All About WEAVES
Weaves are excellent to pack a punch of volume or colour into the hair. They can be layered to change colour placement and to aid comfort. The weight of weft will be determined on the natural hair health, but you an expect one row to be anything from 50g and a full head to be upwards of 150-200g.
​
My Weave methods involve creating a 'track' along a parted row of hair with microbeads; and then sewing the wefts of hair into these pockets of hair created by the beads, distributing the hair and the weight evenly across the head.
​
Most Weft clients will combine this method with either a Tape or Nano extension, too, to give fuller body around the front of the hair and get closer to the hairline.
​
They require refits at around the 8 week mark and similarly to other methods, this is dependant on aftercare, lifestyle and your scalp health. Incorrect aftercare or an oilier scalp can alter how well the beads stay in the hair. Oiler hair or incorrect aftercare products can encourage the beads to slip, meaning a refit would be required earlier.
​
Refits and installations are priced per rows, as opposed to per weight of hair.
​
If full, thick hair is your goal then weaves are an excellent choice!
