Want to know why I will never skip a consultation before your first installation?

What’s the big fuss about a little old flip up?

If you have ever worn any other method of extensions, you just get it!

It’s all about hiding those beads, bonds and attachments.

It’s all about being completely hidden so your secret is safe with me and only me.

It’s all about the movement and the comfortability of being able to flip your hair into a ponytail without pain.

It’s all about Invisible Bead Extensions® | IBE®

What can an Invisible Bead Extensions® | IBE® grow out be like?

It can sometimes be like this! Sometimes it’s life gets busy and you have zero time for an appointment so you put off your maintenance appointment for 18 weeks.

And the best part? No breakage, no popped beads, no slippage, just your hair growing out until you can see me again!

In honor of National flip up day, I wanted to share my most recent flip up next to my very first flip up EVER!!

My first flip up brings back major memories and a little bit of PTSD. 😵‍💫 This was my test out model that I had to wait 12 weeks to put her extensions in because we were shut down!

This education class to entertain me during the COVID shut down turned into a major career shift that I would absolutely do again in a heartbeat!

Happy flip up day to all my fellow IBE girls and all my clients whose lives have been changed! 💕

These kind of installations give me life!!

My absolute favorite part of my job is creating confidence and bringing back a love for their hair!

We installed just 3 hand-tied wefts on 1 row on Jessica. What a difference it made! This was not her first time wearing extensions, but her first experience with Invisible Bead Extensions® | IBE®. I know it will be life changing! The comfort and how hidden it is will be a huge game-changer!

What do you think of this transformation??

Am I a good candidate for extensions?

The beauty of having a consultation with me is that when you sit in my chair, it isn’t a one size fits all situation.

The first thing I will do is look at the texture of your hair and the density of your hair. Next, we will discuss what length you are hoping to achieve with extensions. We will also discuss any past experiences with extensions and how you felt with those experiences.

If you have fine hair, I will typically recommend less hair. The least amount of hair you have installed on each row will give you the most comfort and least stress on your hair.

If you have thicker hair, be prepared to need more extensions to achieve your goals. If you have thicker hair and are looking to go longer, we will need to match your density in extensions to get a more natural look.

When will I tell you no? Generally if your hair is too short. If you are growing out a pixie cut or a very short bob, it’s extremely difficult to make it all blend and look perfect. I do have experience with adding extensions into a bob to help grow out her hair, but there are serious ground rules that we would have to go over including cutting into your natural hair to get it all to blend and look as natural as possible. If that’s a hard no from you, then waiting is going to be your best bet!
