Lux Salon offers multiple professional extension methods so that your stylist can recommend the option best suited to your natural hair, desired result, lifestyle, and maintenance commitment.
Not every method is appropriate for every client. Your final recommendation will be made during your extension consultation.
K-tip extensions are installed in individual strands using small keratin-based bonds. The individual placement allows for natural movement and detailed customization throughout the hair.
K-tips may be a good option for clients seeking flexible movement, length, volume, or customized placement. Proper brushing, at-home care, and professional removal are essential.
I-tip extensions are installed in small sections without using heat or adhesive during application. Their strand-by-strand placement allows your stylist to customize fullness, length, and movement.
Maintenance appointments are necessary as the natural hair grows, and I-tips must be professionally adjusted or removed to protect the natural hair.
Sew-in wefts use rows of extension hair secured to a professionally created foundation. This method can provide significant fullness and length while allowing the stylist to customize placement based on the client’s density, head shape, and desired result.
Regular move-up appointments are required as the natural hair grows.
Tape-in extensions use thin sections of extension hair placed in pairs around the natural hair. When correctly selected, installed, and maintained, they can create smooth, natural-looking length and volume.
Tape-ins require professional maintenance and removal. Oils, heavy products, or improper brushing near the attachment area can affect their wear.
The best method depends on:
Your Lux extension specialist will recommend the method that best balances your desired result with the health of your natural hair.
