First Time Extension Clients

First Application Appointment

Most first time clients can expect to invest $900-$2,500 (deposit included) depending on how much hair is needed, color and desired length.

This investment covers the Hair Extensions, Custom Color of both your hair and the extension hair, the installation, cut and style.

In order to book an appointment, there is a $500 non-refundable deposit. This goes towards the overall cost of the appointment, with remaining balance due on the day of service. I do offer payment plans if necessary, so let me know ahead of your consultation appointment if you need that.

Pre-Consultation Forms

Before your first consultation, you will need to fill out our pre-consultation form, found here.

It should take about 3-5 minutes to complete. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

This guide will outline all of the "do's" and "don'ts" for you post extension application to maintain your hair at home.

Do NOT wash hair for at least 24 - 48 hours to allow your newly applied extensions to adhere completely.

At Home Care

Brushing

  • Use a BELLAMI boar bristle brush daily to remove any knots or tangles.

  • Gather the hair into a ponytail and securely hold close to the scalp. Begin brushing from the ends, carefully working your way up toward the scalp.

  • Brushing your hair before it gets wet will keep it from tangling while washing.

  • To ensure bonds stay separated the duration of wear, gently brush at the scalp and between rows. Gently pull extensions apart with your fingers to keep natural shed from tangling together

Washing

  • Brush extensions thoroughly before washing to remove any tangles.

  • Now that you have more hair, you can divide the hair into two sections and shampoo or create multiple ponytails and go section-by-section.

  • Shampoo:

    • Use a sulfate-free and paraben-free shampoo.

    • Beginning at the top of the head, massage shampoo into the hair, carefully making your way towards the nape. Do not use a circular motion or flip your head upside down to avoid tangles.

    • Part hair and rinse thoroughly. If you used the ponytail method to wash your hair, rinse one section at a time. Follow up with a final rinse.

  • Condition:

    • Use a hydrating conditioner.

    • Apply conditioner from mid-shaft down to the tips of your hair and leave on for 2-3 minutes. NOTE: Adding conditioner at or near the point of attachment may lead to tapes or beads sliding out.

    • Rinse completely.

Drying

  • Towel or air dry your hair as much as possible before using a blow dryer.

  • The use of leave-in conditioners, heat protectants, as well as treatment oils from mid-shaft to ends is recommended to protect your extensions.

  • Using a blow dryer, rough-dry the hair.

  • Starting at the ends and working your way up toward the scalp, round brush the hair.

Styling Tools

  • BELLAMI Hair Extensions are safe to use with thermal tools like curling wands, flat irons and blow dryers.

  • Temperature setting depends on your natural hair. You may use between 270°F - 450°F on your extensions as long as you apply proper heat protectants before styling.

  • Keep all hot tools away from the point of attachment to ensure extensions do not melt or fuse.

Products

  • Use professional-grade products recommended by your Stylist to maintain the health of your natural hair and extensions.

  • Avoid alcohol-based products close to the point of attachment as it may compromise the bonding agent and cause sliding.

Swimming

  • Before swimming, wet your hair with fresh tap water and apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner to the ends.

  • Tie in a loose ponytail or braid.

  • Once you are finished swimming, rinse the extensions with fresh water and spray with leave-in conditioner.

Sleeping

  • Brush hair gently and loosely braid before sleeping.

  • Do not go to bed with wet hair as it can cause tangling close to the scalp. If this occurs, schedule an appointment with your Stylist to remove immediately.

Coloring

  • DO NOT ATTEMPT TO COLOR YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS AT HOME. Please consult your certified BELLAMI Stylist for all color services and inquiries.

Sunscreen

  • Avoid the use of chemical-based sunscreens, as this can discolor the hair. Please use mineral-based sunscreens only.

Pre-Consultation Form

Please fill out this form before your consultation appointment to streamline the process. It should take 3-5 minutes to fill out. If you have any questions, let me know!

FAQs

  • A: Currently I use Bellami for all my extension clients. Bellami Professional only uses ethically sourced 100% full-cuticle human Remy hair from Asia's Western and Northern regions, bordering eastern Europe and southern Russia, they offer naturally lighter hair, making color lightening easier. The Bellami factory implements the highest production standards and is 9001 and L'Oréal certified. However I also have used other companies in the past and if there is a texture or length not currently carried by Bellami I may use other companies.

  • A: So long as the extensions have been properly installed, maintained, and removed by an accredited professional, you shouldn't notice any damage to your natural hair. For additional tips and tricks to help preserve the integrity of your extensions, please visit the At Home Care guide above. If you would like a printed version of these guidelines, let me know!

  • A: The lifespan of Bellami hair can last anywhere from 6-12 months, depending on how the hair has been installed and maintained. K tips are the only method that is not recommended for reuse. The At Home Care guide has tips and tricks for maintaining your hair extensions.

  • A: Bellami has over 50 shades and continues to grow with natural, balayage, ombre, sombre, rooted, marbled, and highlighted tones. We offer straight and body wave as your texture options. Kendra Janelle Hair extensions is another company I have a relationship with and come in many other textures and may better suit someone who wears their hair curly.

  • A: The extensions' appearance differs depending on the height of the person and the length of the torso. The taller and longer the torso, the shorter the hair looks. The shorter and more compact the torso, the longer the hair can look. When you come in for your initial consultation I will use a soft measuring tape to show you different lengths available and where they will sit on you.

  • A: It is never recommended to use any bleach or lifting agents on the extensions as it can jeopardize the integrity of the extensions and will void the Professional Guarantee. Any alterations should be done by myself or another licensed extension specialist and done at their discretion. It is sometimes possible to shift the color slightly darker or retone faded extensions, but it should always be done by a professional.
