All About Hand-Tied Extensions

Hand-tied hair extensions are the most seamless and least damaging method extension method there is to offer. With this method, we attach beads onto a row of a client's natural hair, and then tie in a weft of hair using thread so the weight is distributed across the head. There is no heat or glue involved!

  • Hand-tied extensions are fully customizable to what you’re looking to achieve, and I’m here to help you reach your ultimate hair goals! There are so many ways to customize hand-tied extensions, whether you are wanting length, a ton of volume, or the most natural looking option. There’s no heat or glue, so when you take them out there’s no need to worry about balding or hair being ripped out. And, this means you get to treat your hair like YOUR HAIR!

  • The hair lasts 6-9 months on average, but up to 12 months with great at home care. So although it is an investment in the beginning, you end up saving by not having to buy new hair every other time you need them moved up.

  • We generally recommend move-ups every 8-10 weeks on average, which entails full removal and reinstallation. This allows us to brush out all of the natural shedding in the beads, which helps keep your hair healthy.

Love note

“I’ve spent 20+ years bouncing from stylist to stylist, never being comfortable or happy with my hair. I had more than a few stylists totally trash my hair when I made the transition from brunette to blonde. But then I took a chance on Emma. I literally cried with happiness when I got in my car after we were done because it was the absolute first time what I saw on my head was better than what I envisioned. She flawlessly translated what we discussed to real life. Then the regrowth was perfection, it blended so seamlessly I went months without having to go back. It allowed my hair to heal from all the previous damage. My hair is healthier than it’s ever been and it’s because of Emma and her sheer talent and skill.” -Katy K.
