How Long Do They Last?
K-Tip extensions are taken out and re-applied every 3-5 months depending on how quickly the clients hair grows. They are strategically taken out and brand new hair gets re-applied.
What maintenance do they require?
These extensions require the least amount of “in salon” maintenance out of all extension methods. About once every 4 weeks the extensions will be cleaned up; clearing out any of the natural hair that has shedded out of the clients scalp and is still holding on to the k-tip bond. This prevents tangling. I will also check to make sure that your extension is still adhered to enough hair after shedding, this prevents breakage and damage. This is a 20 minute appointment.
Who are They Best Suited For?
K-tip extensions are great for a wide range of clients! This method is best for anybody who has fine/thin hair and has been turned down for other methods, anybody who is looking to add volume to their hair, anybody who likes to have a little more flexibility with styling their hair, and anybody who likes a more “low maintenance” salon appointment.
Is it damaging?
K-Tip extensions are one of the least damaging extension methods when applied correctly. Since keratin extensions are individual bonds applied in a 1 to 1 ratio they don’t cause a lot of unwanted tension to the hair and scalp. These extensions are also strategically removed, avoiding any unnecessary damage. However, when you commit to having any sort of extension the at home maintenance is very important; making sure that you’re properly taking care of your extensions will determine how well your hair will handle them.
