Beautiful, thick, he althy hair is a symbol of femininity and an object of seduction. Almost any girl wants to have just such - shiny and lush - hair. Of course, different hairstyles and haircuts suit different women, but long hair suits almost everyone. Unfortunately, not every girl can boast of a thick and shiny mop on her head. Yes, and natural growth takes a lot of time.
However, modern technologies, such as microcapsule hair extensions, allow you to get a mop of beautiful hair in just a few hours.
What is this?
The name of the procedure speaks for itself. Microcapsule hair extension is the attachment of a lock of hair with the help of special capsules. This procedure differs from the usual capsule extension by the size of the capsules themselves.
For regular extensions, a 6 mm tool is used, while in the case in question, only 3 mm. Thanks to this technique, the built-up strands weigh half as much, whichreduces stress on your own hair. This approach minimizes the chances of ruining your hair.
Suitable for
Any girl who wants to get microcapsule hair extensions is worried about whether this procedure suits her. There is no point in doing extensions if your own hair is thick and strong. If you want to add a little volume for the sake of a special occasion, you should also not resort to this procedure. In this situation, clip-on extensions are more suitable - this will take less time and money. Microcapsule hair extensions are ideal for those whose hair can hardly be called lush and thick. Owners of thin, weak, liquid hair will appreciate the technique.
Methodology
As already mentioned, the difference between microcapsule and capsule extensions is in the size of the strand. Before starting the procedure, the specialist selects donor hair. At the same time, he should pay attention not only to color, but also to focus on the structure. Most masters prefer to use the South Russian or Slavic type. This hair is more expensive, but it looks more natural and retains an excellent appearance longer. With this type of extension, this is extremely important, because donor strands are worn for about 6 months.
After choosing the type, you need to decide on the length and number of strands. On average, about 200-300 pieces are required. The length depends on personal preference. Most girls prefer hair up to 80 cm.
Only with special tools that can fix with waxstrands, microcapsule hair extensions are made. The technology is like this.
A strand of the donor is applied close to the skin to the native hair. With a special gun, wax is applied to the junction, preheated to 90 degrees. The gun automatically applies the required amount of glue, which makes it possible to make very small and inconspicuous capsules.
Thus, the required amount of hair is increased. The procedure is performed on any part of the head. It should be borne in mind that the small size of the capsules leads to the fact that very small strands can be fixed in them. In addition, this is a very painstaking work that requires maximum attention and patience. Depending on the condition of your own hair, the procedure takes from 4 to 6 hours.
Features
Due to the small size of the capsules, microcapsule extensions for short hair are very often performed. Often men who have very short haircuts resort to this procedure. Such extensions are indispensable for thinning hair.
Micro extensions are distinguished by wax capsules of very small size and weight. Accordingly, they are practically not felt and do not cause discomfort. For this reason, this technique is often chosen by people who have too thin and weak hair, who are not recommended for other ways to improve the appearance of their hair.
It must be understood that a small amount of wax leads to the fact that the donor strand will be small. That is, this technology does not allow you to have a very thick mane.
Regarding other methods, microcapsule extension is considered one of the most gentle. Wax, with which the strands are attached to their hair, is not harmful to he alth. At the same time, the fixation is so strong that it is not afraid of any loads. This means that the hairstyle does not require special care. You can use any hair washing products, styling, irons, hair dryers, combs. Neither a bath, nor a pool, nor sea water will spoil the hair. You can color and style them just like you would your own hair.
Microcapsule hair extensions, the prices of which are much higher than other methods of obtaining thick hair, require timely correction. The frequency depends on the rate of hair growth, on average - every 4-6 months. As soon as the fasteners grow so much that they begin to interfere or become noticeable, it's time for the master. It is important to remember that the correction takes much more time than the initial extension.
