Women throughout the history of mankind, they sought to give an additional amount to their hairstyle. For this, they did incredible blessings, pinned shinons, put special rollers and put on wigs, some of which were
with a stork nest. But the nosche was given to the appearance of chatins, the shignon flew into the most inappropriate moment, for example, during the rapid dance, and under the wigbed a head and the skin was smashed. It was possible to solve this problem, relevant to the beautiful sex, was managed only in the early 80s of the twentieth century, when the first hair extension technology appeared in America and Europe (however, it was available only to well-sufficient people). Naturally, the stars of Hollywood told one of the first novelty. Before the filming, they lengthened their hair with the help of additional strands, which were attached to the "native" actress hair with a narrow tape on a sticky basis. But the beauty required heavy victims: such a hairstyle could then comb, and the glue adversely affected the hair.
At about the same time, a Chinese technique appeared, in which metal microachines were used for attaching strands. It looked quite frightening: metal rings were installed at the junction of "relatives" and extensive hair, which were then squeezed with the help of the Passage. With so much iron in the head, the client after the procedure resembles a distant relative of the Terminator. Not to mention the fact that coarse metal brackets with sharp edges constantly pumped their hair and scratched the skin. About how the hairstyle looked is better and not to talk. Fortunately, this technology is now prohibited worldwide.
Only after 10 years began to appear ways to build up, we are well familiar now. In Russia, secure hairdressing technologies came both later - some 5-7 years ago.
Today, long thick hair, like many centuries ago, continue to be one of the main characters of female beauty and invariably attract the attention of representatives of the strong half of humanity. It is worthwhile to be surprised that an increasing number of women resort to hair extensions.
What ways are there ways to increase the volume of their own hair and what do they differ among themselves?
Hair elongation technology
Perhaps the easiest admission of hair extensions are well acquaintances to all African. To do this, donor curls are invested in their own strands, the length of which can be easily varied. Five years ago, this technique was at the peak of popularity from young people, but now it is interested in much less often. On the one hand, the pigtails do not harm hair and do not require much care, on the other hand, they imply a monotonous hairstyle, besides, quite inappropriate in most offices, where there are strict requirements for appearance.
There is an alternative version of African Dreda, when a thin pigtail is woven around the head - like the "spikelet" known to many since childhood. And already to the "spikelet" "sewing" strands of extra hair. It looks quite original, but again, the style is mostly suitable for youth.
Pretty widespread in hairdressers got a hot hair extension, which is a few species:
- English method. The technology involves the use of a special pistol, filled with epoxy resin heated to 200-220 degrees. The procedure lasts about four hours, during which donor strands are attached using a thermopystole. Such an attachment does not provide for correction after the rustling of hair - after a few months we are wearing the strands simply remove. The removal process is quite painful, requires the use of special tools and a chemical solution, which is why weakened hair can be very damaged.
During socks there is a chance of gluing resin capsules with each other.
- Italian method. Additional strands are attached with keratin capsules heated by special tongs with thermostat. Keratin is a material close in composition to natural hair, and melts at a temperature of from 120 to 180 degrees, which makes it a lesser extent to injure hair than in the case of epoxy resin. At the place of the attachment, small transparent capsules are formed, which firmly hold the extensive strands
For 4-6 months. Removal is performed using the same forceps or special cosmetic passages.
- Korean method. For fastening donor curls, special glue and thermoapping are used, which itself chooses the desired dose of adhesive substance. Capslocks are obtained very small and neat, not completely felt on the head and do not interfere with hair combing. Plus, the procedure is a gentle melting point - only 90 degrees. By time, an increase in 110-125 strands can take from 3.5 to 5 hours. For their removal, oils and a special fluid are used (Remumber).
All hot hair extensions have one common drawback: you will have to refrain from hiking in a bath and sauna and take care of your hair from entering them seawater. In addition, it is unwanted to use hair masks, essential oils and ordinary shampoos.
Cold extension technologies require high qualifying and serious experience, and from the client - large material investments. But the safety of hair here is much higher. There are several basic ways:
- Cold adhesive Building is carried out with the help of surgical glue, which, when drying, forms a solid capsule. Such a capsule is not destroyed under the influence of high temperature or sea water. The "native" hair is not subjected to a destructive mechanical and thermal effect, because the entire process is carried out manually. The size of the capsules that are formed in the prinuff connecting places varies depending on the tightness of the client's hair, the length of the expansion and the degree of desired volume. The process itself takes no more than three hours. The minus of this technology is the painful removal of extensive hair using a chemical solution containing acetone. In addition, glue when drying acquires a whiten shade, so this method is more suitable for blondes and women
With light rusia hair.
- Cold Ribbon Extension - Technology come from Europe.
In this case, the hair volume increases with a gluing double silicone sticker tape. The installation of such hair does not require any special additional equipment, it is carried out quickly (the whole procedure takes 30-60 minutes), the hairstyle looks natural. A strand for ribbon extension is an ultra-thin ribbon-tape with a bilateral tape size in a height of 1 cm and in a width of 4 cm. Total strands are attached about 40 pieces, and their length varies from 15 to 55 cm. To increase one strand, you just need only Slightly press it with your fingers. It cannot be said that this is the most durable way of fastening, but donor strands can be used repeatedly subject to the replacement of bilateral tape. The socks time is 1.5-2 months, then if desired, you can make a correction.
For removal of extensive hair, a special liquid on an alcohol basis is used, which does not affect the condition of the hair too well.
- extension using metal-ceramic beads It was developed in China. It is suitable for non-losses of extra hair. During the extension procedure, small metal-ceramic beads are used, with which donor strands are attached to their own hair. The method allows you to adjust the volume hairstyle
In the parietal zone, since the strands are fixed at a distance of only 3-5 mm from the roots. However, when parsing, beads may be noticeable. The whole procedure lasts about 6-8 hours. Among the unconditional advantages: the absence of any adhesive and solvents, adversely active on the hair, the possibility of correction in 2-3 months of wearing. But there are also cons: in the places of the mechanical hall of the hair (especially if they are thin from nature) can be very damaging, because of which, after the removal of strands, it is necessary to cut off the part that remains for the growth of the hair below the attachment.
BELLARGO extension
And yet there are methods of extension that allow you to handle hair as carefully. These include the German technology BELLARGO, patented in 1994 and won great popularity in Europe.
"In 2004, the technology was tested by Öko Test (" Eco-Test "), which conducts German Society for the Protection of Consumer Rights," says Zolotayev, master stylist beauty salon "Golden section". - Society explores various products and drugs on environmental friendliness and health safety, and as a result of checking the Bellargo and MicroBellargo system, they were recognized as harmless to health.
In the BellarGo system, adhesives, resins, rubber, solvents and other harmful substances are not used, therefore the risk of hair injury is minimized. The fastening of donor strands is carried out using small polymer sleeves. First, a small nodule is made from their own hair at a distance of 1 cm from the roots, an expired strand is applied above the nodule and is done in a special way through the sleeve. Then the sleeve is quickly "sealed" by an electric heat-insulating, the heating temperature of which
does not exceed 120 degrees.
The life of the socks of extensive hair is 3-4 months, after which the thermal sensitive sleeves connecting their own hair with extensive strands, with the help of a thermal treatment, are easily removed, replaced with new and move closer to the hair base. The procedure can be repeated as much as possible, without damaging or your nor extensive hair. The length of own hair can be only 5-7 cm.
Building can also be carried out using cracks. Tress is a series of hair in the form of a narrow strip. In total, it is set from 1 to 8 cracks (depending on its own volume of hair), which pass from the ear to the ear. To secure them, a very subtle weaving is used - the braid, to which donor strands are fixed in a certain way and are fixed by miniature thermal sensitive microholdes. Rows of extensive hair are located from the occipital part to the top. They overlap with their hair, due to which an absolutely natural appearance is created and you can create almost any hairstyle. Correction is necessary on average every 3 months.
MicroBellargo technology gives limitless possibilities for changing the image and suits people with partial baldness in the field of forehead and tempes and even those who have lost their hair as a result of oncological diseases. Donor strands are attached to a mesh, which is put on the head, and through her free honeycombs, their own hair is stretched out. Thus, the skin of the head is normal breathing (in contrast to wearing wigs and lining), their hair can freely grow,
And the client is not limited in the choice of hairstyles. This method of fastening does not cause allergic reactions and discomfort in the field of fixation, does not interfere with the active lifestyle, visiting the pool and saunas, the adoption of marine and sunbathing. Overhead strands are made to order for each client. As its own hair is growing (every 8-12 weeks), fastening correction is carried out.
For extension, natural European hair, not subjected to machining, painting, twigs and scales of which are used correctly, in one direction (otherwise koltuns will quickly appear).
Donor strands are selected depending on the type of their own hair. If your hair is thin, then additional curls are selected lighter and appropriate type, which prevents the loss of their own lap.
And more dense and thick hair are attached to thick and thick hair, creating a completely natural look hairstyle. "
Hair extension
The extensive hair can be painted and subject to a chemical twist, but it should only do this that specializes at work with such hair. As noted above, if the adhesive, resin and other substances, about the bath, sea swimming and hair masks should be forgotten for attaching strands. Even shampoos before use must be breeding with water in proportion one to two. And you can wash your head exclusively in a vertical position (tilting the head forward is strictly forbidden, as well as go to bed with wet hair). But all these limitations do not concern hair extension using Bellargo technology. The method does not require some special care, special means or refusal from the usual lifestyle.
