Heat
Seals (This
information will
cover Synthetic hair)
Type
of
Hair used:
Loose Synthetic
Tools
needed:
Synthetic hair,
fusion iron, spirit gum (optional)
Recommendations:
High quality
synthetic hair, such as a monofibre.
This
type of
installation uses a braiding method,
and then slight melting and hardening of the synthetic hair.
Installation:
Section a strip of hair to be braided, add synthetic hair into natural
hair by folding synthetic hair in half, start a braid for
about
1/2 inch, take a thin section of the synthetic
hair and wrap it around the end of the braid a couple times, then use
your fusion wand to melt down the synthetic hair a bit, then
press the melt hair between your fingers (roll if desired), it will
then cool and harden forming a bond.
Removal: Twist the seal in the opposite direction until it cracks open,
slide out the synthetic hair while undoing the braid.
PROS:
- Simple method - only need a
fusion
iron
- Quick
- Great for long lasting
extensions
CONS:
- Bonds will be hard for the
first
week
- Removal is tedious, and can
damage
finger nails.
- Not very easy for DIY,
especially
for the back of the head.
