Buying Hair Guide
Type: If you're getting Non Sewn Beaded Wefts (NSBW) you'll be shopping for weft/track hair. You'll want to get Machine Weft Hair, Seamless Hair Wefts, or Genius Wefts. Avoid hand tied wefts, they unravel too easily.
Quantity: A full pack, 3 ounces, or 150 grams is usually enough for a full head (three tracks doubled).
If you have thicker hair, buy 1 1/2 packs, 3.5-4 ounces, or 200 grams (four tracks doubled).
Type: If you're getting Individual Micro Beads (IMB) or Individual Keratin Shrink Links (IKSL), you'll be shopping for Individual I-tip hair. Avoid U-tips or Flat tips, you want I-tips.
Quantity: 125-150 strands is considered a full head, but if you have thicker hair, it is recommended that you get 150 to 200 strands.
If you're unsure or already have your hair, feel free to book a consultation.

HAIR LENGTHS
18 Inches is the average length for hair extensions. It falls a little below the bra strap, and can be cut to blend in with short hair. If you have hair shoulder length or above, 18 inches is the recommended length for you. If your hair is extremely short, we may have to cut them to 14-16 inches to blend them correctly.
20 inches will fall at the waist area. 20 inches can be used for people with hair anywhere below shoulder length.If your hair is past your shoulders, you might like to try 20 inches for extra length.
22 inches is for people who already have generally long hair, but want it longer! It will fall just above your belly button area. If your natural hair length hits your bra strap or below, you qualify for 22 inch hair.
24 inches is very long. This is for people with long hair who can't get enough of the length. 24 inches will fall just above your belt loops.
