Hair shining with health and beautifully shiny is the main weapon of women in seduction. Each representative of the fair sex, who does not have thick and beautiful hair, at least once thought about how to grow them. Many of them decide on microcapsule hair extensions. In this case, it is necessary to study in advance all the subtleties of the technique for increasing the density of hair.
Description
The whole process of building is not particularly difficult: additional strands are attached to the existing ones using microcapsules. The difference between this method and the capsule method is the size of the capsules: they are microscopic and have no weight. And tweezers with the microcapsule technique are used much smaller than with capsule. This has a positive effect on the hair itself: does not make them heavier and does not cause damage to the hairline.
Before the extension procedure, the hairdresser selects the material. This takes into account not only the color, but also the structure of the hair.
Especially popular is the extension of Slavic hair with a haircut, because this type of material looks natural and is less brittle.
Slavic hair is a rare type, which means their cost is too high. It makes sense to acquire them if they are soft, light, and reminiscent of silk to the touch - then this is a natural material, not a fake. Such hair can also have a different composition, they can be smooth or wavy, but the main thing is that they are thin and soft.
The color of such hair can be completely different, but most of all there are light blond, which lends itself well to dyeing with gentle dyes. But it is better to purchase unpainted strands so that there are no surprises when working with them. This type of hair is suitable for everyone who has a similar hair structure.
The procedure is a hot build-up of strands, which more gently affects the hair at this stage. Microcapsule technology involves the use of small capsules and thin curls. Lanolin and protein, which are part of the capsule, increase durability and reliability.
With this technique, the hair does not differ from natural hair both upon closer examination and sensation.
The procedure is painstaking, and for its implementation it is better to choose an experienced specialist.
Extend magik system
When this tool appears, the whole process is much easier and more effective. The tool gives a dose of glue, which makes it possible to attach the capsule even more accurately. The size of a capsule with rice grain. Such a device makes it possible to grow on very short hair.
In the past, hairdressers undertook building, if the length was at least 10 centimeters. And now, thanks to microcapsules, the minimum length is 4 cm.
This procedure has become popular even among men to remove bald patches.
Stages
The procedure involves several stages.
- Hairdresser consultation. At this stage, the wishes of the client are heard, the hair is inspected, advice is given on the selection of color and length of hair extensions. Together with the master, strands of the necessary density and composition are selected that are close to natural.
- Preparation for the procedure. To do this, it is washed using a special composition. Rinsers and other care products are not used: this causes the capsule to slip with the curl. Material for building is purchased in prepared form with a finished capsule. But a specialist can independently prepare strands.
- The very procedure of building. This stage is dependent on the qualifications of the specialist. The area of the head where the extension is made is divided into sectors. A small strand of natural hair is separated and a donor is attached to it several millimeters from the skin. A capsule is brought to the place of contact and pressed to both strands. Then the capsule is heated using Extend Magic. And then, when it hardens, it will get a shade of hair.
- At the end of the whole process, an adaptive haircut is done, in the process of which all the strands are aligned (both natural and donor) so that nothing indicates the procedure performed.
More recently, capsules had a composition of lanolin and keratin, and for their melting a curling iron heated to 150 degrees was needed, and now they consist of lanolin, which is easily melted by Extend Magic, heated to 80 degrees.
To make the procedure more effective, you need as many additional strands as possible. If the procedure is done all over the head, then you need somewhere up to 200 pieces.
Prices
The microcapsule building technique has recently gained fame and is the most effective. Because of this, the cost of such a procedure is quite high and is closely dependent on the type of hair that is used for building, and the number of strands. This technique involves the use of any hair.
Application restrictions
This technique has very few limitations:
- prescribed course of radiation therapy;
- pronounced baldness;
- age less than 16 years.
Correction and Maintenance
With this method, the correction of hair is needed only after six months, because the strands are quite thin, so there is no weighting effect. When the hair grows, the capsules are not visible because they are microscopic.
When using this method of building, you can use a hairdryer, curling iron and ironing, but you need to avoid overheating.
As before the procedure, after building it is allowed to visit the pools, baths and saunas.
Care
- It is not necessary to use means for washing and rinsing hair aggressively affecting the hair. They should not contain alcohol and acids. Until the hair is dry, it is not recommended to go to bed.
- No need for hair tangling: this can lead to the disconnection of individual strands.
- If you need to get rid of the extended strands, then this will not be difficult. It requires special tweezers and a tool with alcohol. But this procedure is not recommended to be done on your own - it is better to contact the master who carried out the building. The removal procedure occurs without the use of aggressive substances and sharp objects.
There is still a cold build - tape. It is made on the basis of a special polymer glue. The procedure takes up to half an hour. But the hairstyle will have to be adjusted every two months.
