One of the biggest questions we get asked when in salon is how long will my hair extensions last? As the Micro Ring specialists, we know a thing or two about how to get the best out of your hair extensions and this keeps our clients coming back to us time and time again. 

From how well you wash your hair to correct placement, there are so many factors that affect the longevity of your install with one of the most important ones being hair quality. 

Remy Hair

Put plainly, Remy hair is simply hair that has been left with the cuticles intact and all facing the same way as opposed to non-Remy hair where the cuticle has been removed. Why is this beneficial? The cuticle is the outside of the hair which, when in good condition, gives the hair its softness and shine and helps prevents frizz. Ever wondered why bleached hair becomes more prone to frizz? This is because the cuticle has been ‘opened’ to remove the natural hair pigment too many times and therefore becomes weaker, which is how damage occurs. When it comes to hair extensions, Remy hair is the best choice to ensure smooth, long lasting hair extensions.

Hair

There’s a whole host of options when it comes to origins of hair extensions and our hair is always a popular pick for our clients. Famed for its length and density, the hair is a great choice for hair extensions thanks to its smooth and shiny finish as well as being super thick and strong. Easy to brush and care for, our hair is a great choice for clients to guarantee long lasting hair extensions once they’ve left the salon.

Virgin Hair or Coloured Hair?

Virgin hair is simply hair that hasn’t been coloured, so when it comes to choosing between virgin and previously coloured hair, it really comes down to personal preference. Coloured hair offers clients much more variety in terms of colour choice and this helps to enable a seamless result when colour matching.

Branded Packet Hair vs Custom Made Hair

At Taylor Rose Hair Extensions London we choose to custom make every clients hair to ensure a seamless blend as well as a superior finish and long lasting install. We also know exactly where our hair comes from so we have the confidence that coupled with the correct aftercare, your hair extensions will remain in the highest quality for many months to come. This gives us the flexibility to create an install bespoke to you and your unique hair pattern. From hair density and growth to where you place your parting, we can tailor make each hair extension to ensure it’s the perfect size for a comfortable and safe install. We can access a huge range of colours & will often mix and blend 3 or 4 shades to get the most natural match for each client. This then enables us to tailor the colour depending on the positioning of the extension, with options to add lighter or darker pieces to mimic the natural colouring of your hair.
