BRAZILIAN HAIR EXTENSIONS
The new Brazilian extension method for hair extensions is one of the smallest and most undetectable methods used to date.
Brazilian Hair Extensions are almost weightless and the application
minimizes shedding. The extension hair is attached to the client's hair
using elastic threads coloured to match the client’s hair. This means
the extensions will be even less detectable.
The benefits of the Brazilian Hair Extensions
This Brazilian technique or method
for hair extensions is fast becoming known worldwide as the best hair
extensions method. The process takes about three to four hours to
complete, no bulkiness and no shedding! There are no adhesives, glues,
or heat used with this method. The hair does not have to be pre-bonded
which means you can get a consultation and fitting on the same day. The
thicknesses of the strands are matched with the client’s hair so if you
have fine hair you don’t have to worry about having very thick strands
that are too heavy or too noticeable in your own hair.
The Brazilian Hair Extensions are
ideal for ladies who want to wear hair extensions to grow their own
natural hair. It's safe for ALL textures from fine straight hair to
thick coarse hair and is suited for ladies with normal to thick hair. If
you have very fine hair then the Mini Ringlets are more suitable.
Brazilian Hair Extensions are the latest in strand by strand hair
extensions that offer versatility and movement with out glue or micro
rings. This technique uses thread, that's it. If you want premium
service, style & flexibility...then the best technique is the
Brazilian Hair Extensions for your hair extensions.
This method will last approx 6 months with the correct maintenance and care before needing to be removed and redone.

“The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Choosing A Salon & How to Avoid Them”
Here are Mistake 6 & 7.
Mistake #6: You Think Having A License Is All It Takes To Be A Good Hairstylist
There are hundreds of thousands of licensed stylists. They’ve all gone
to school, or been apprenticed and passed their state boards examine.
That doesn’t mean they are all good.
Hair styling is an art. Having
a degree of talent is important, although the skills can be mastered
with time and practice. It is important for stylists to continue their
education, and go through extra training such as “finishing schools”.
Don’t be shy. Ask stylists about their training and find out what kind
of skills they have mastered before you put yourself in their hands.
Mistake #7: Not Asking To See Examples of Salon Workmanship
Avoiding this mistake is probably your best bet at finding a fantastic
salon. Ask to see examples of their work. If they don’t have a book for
you to look through, ask for references. A good salon will happily give
you references.
Ask for the names of at least three people who have
visited the stylist you’re interested in, and call them and ask them if
they are happy with the salon.
Also, ask to read through any testimonials the salon has from clients. This is the easiest way you can find a salon for you!
I hope you all will utilize these tips when choosing a salon. They are very important!! Thanks for reading these tips.

“The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Choosing A Salon & How to Avoid Them”
Mistake #5: Picking a
Salon That Doesn’t Guarantee Their Services
All reputable salons
guarantee their services automatically. This means if you aren’t happy they will attempt
to “fix” whatever it is for free, and if you still aren’t happy they will
return your money.
Unfortunately there are
unethical salons that won’t do this. Instead they will argue with you for
having “unrealistic expectations”.
An unethical salon may
charge you for a re-visit, or refuse to give you your money back.
The best thing you can do
is pick a salon that guarantees their work. This way you know they have to be
good and have good communication with you. There is no risk for you.

“The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Choosing A Salon & How to Avoid Them”
Mistake #4: You Don’t Allow
Enough Time for Your Salon to Service You Properly
Mistakes happen when you
rush!
When you’re in a hurry,
you may not get enough time to communicate with your stylist to make sure you
get exactly what you need. And, sometimes, one late client can push back
schedules for the whole day. When you schedule a salon visit, don’t short
yourself on time. Ask the salon how much time you should allow in your schedule
and then add a half hour. You deserve it, it’s your time to treat yourself right
– don’t rush it.
Before you get serviced
at the salon, talk with your stylist. Make sure he or she knows what your likes
and dislikes are, what your “goal” is and how you will achieve your desired
look.
You can save time, money,
and headaches from the very beginning by communication!
Why do most people do the
opposite and find themselves at the mercy of their stylist? Because everyone
takes the stylist for granted. Everyone assumes they read minds, or that they
can make you look just like the photograph you brought in, even though you have
a completely different hair type and face shape. Most everyone thinks the
stylist is a “miracle worker” no matter what condition hair may be in. This
just isn’t the case.
You should think of your
stylist as your “beauty expert” and “project partner”. And, you are the
project. Consult with your stylist. Let them know in advance what you want. Ask
them if they can give you any tips and ideas on creating a look and maintaining
it between visits. A good salon will take the initiative in communication.

“The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Choosing A Salon & How to Avoid Them”
Mistake #3: You Frequent Several Different Salons
You may think this is good for you because whoever can get you in soonest wins the appointment. And it is, to some extent. But here is why it usually isn’t a good way to deal with salons.
A good salon has enough loyal clients that they don’t have to deal with price shoppers.
Once you find a good salon, you must be loyal. If you flip-flop from salon to salon, a good salon won’t be too motivated to keep YOU as a client. They will cater to their loyal clients.
Price is important. But price should not be more important than good quality and good service.
When you aren’t loyal to your salon, and show up every 6 months for them to “fix” your cheap hair service you received, when you need a favor who are you going to turn to? When your best friend that you haven’t seen since college calls and says she’s going to be in town for the weekend, and you’ve got an inch and a half of roots showing, who’s going to bend over backwards to get you looking your best for the reunion?
Every salon expects to bend over backwards for their loyal clients now and again; they might even see you after hours, or early in the morning, or pull off a miracle. Provided the client is loyal. The salon will do all they can to help you look your best for an unexpected special occasion.
All good salons will be loyal to you if YOU are loyal to them.
Keep loyalty in mind when you choose your salon.

“The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Choosing A Salon & How to Avoid Them”
Mistake #2
You Think All Salons
Are The Same
Every salon is different. No two salons
are really the same. Every salon has different services and different employees
who have unique talents and specialties. Styling is a combination of talent,
experience, and skill. Most people don’t realize the time and money the best
stylists put into their art.
Contrary to what some
people think, styling is not just a matter of cutting hair. It takes
workmanship and talent to create really quality styles, and an eye for color
and dimension to design a total look for an individual.
Communication is the key to picking the best
salon for you:
·
Ask
what type of training and experience the stylists have
·
Ask
how much time they will spend with you before the appointment
·
Ask
to see pictures of their work
·
Ask
to read testimonials of past clients
·
Ask
any other questions that are unique to your needs.
This will help you to decide
if they are the best salon for you.
After you ask your
questions, it will become pretty obvious which salon you should choose. The
salon that wants your business will prove to you that they are the best salon
for you. Take your time and decide which salon you would like to use – but
when you decide, you must be loyal to them.

“The 7 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Choosing A Salon & How to Avoid Them”
Mistake #1: You pick a
salon based only on price.
The
old adage is true. “You get what you pay for.” This is especially true when
choosing a salon. If you want the best services you should decide to deal with
a salon because of the overall value you receive, NOT because they are the
lowest price.
Here’s why:
Value = Quality + Service + Price
It is impossible for any
business in any industry to offer the cheapest price, have the highest quality,
and provide the best service all at the same time.
You can get high quality
and super service, but you can’t get both and still get the lowest
price.
Salons have a lot of
overhead, employees, products, leases, continuing education, etc. If their
prices are “too good to be true” then they are cutting comers somewhere.
Whether it’s in the quality of their services and products, or the customer
service they provide, something has to suffer to give you those low, low
prices.
Total value is all three:
Quality, Service, and Price.
The three most common
problems you will have when you pick a salon based on low prices are:
1.
Cheap salons don’t usually stand behind their work if there
is a mistake.
Sure, those salons might charge you less, but how will they treat you when you
are not happy? To give the cheapest price they usually have low-wage,
inexperienced employees, with a license to practice, but little or no
real-world skills. They also cut corners by using cheaper products. The end
result is “you get half of what you pay for.” And the little bit of money you
save ends up costing you more in the long run, especially if you have to miss
work because you’re locked in your room crying for 3 days after getting
“butchered”. Believe me, there is a saying I always tell my clients: “the
bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten ...”
2.
A
salon that offers the lowest prices often has to compensate for being cheap
with quantity. Not quality. Your salon experience is anything but relaxing
when you are being herded like a sheep waiting for your turn to be shorn and
then sent on your way. Many times these salons don’t even wash your hair, it’s
just wet down with a spray bottle, and when you’re through they usually send
you out with soaked hair. It’s tough to evaluate the end result when you can’t
see it.
3.
And
the final reason why picking the cheapest salon is a problem relates back to the
low-wage, inexperienced stylists that are usually employed at these types of
salons. Anyone can go through the schooling and have a license, but it’s
the finishing schools, and spending the time and money on furthering education
and developing talent that really makes a “Stylist”.
If you really care about
keeping your hair in optimum health, whether you want to look polished and
professional, or stylish and trendy; whether you are interested in color that
can enhance your natural beauty, or turn you into a vibrant vixen; and, if you
want to be pampered, treated with kid gloves, and learn beauty “secrets” from
experienced experts, then don’t choose a salon based on price.
