6 myths about hair extensions

It's not uncommon to hear or read plenty of false ideas about hair extensions. And it is sometimes complicated to recognize the truth and the wrong. That's why we decided, for you, future hair extensions buyers, to answer honestly to your different questions !

#1 : DO HAIR EXTENSIONS DAMAGE MY HAIR ?

It is often said that hair extensions weaken, break, or even make hair fall out !

A good hair extension application will not damage your hair in any way. For keratin, micro ring and tape extensions, it is essential to call upon a professional hairdresser trained in the application of extensions. Because yes, if the extensions are not properly installed, it can cause damage ...

Also check on the quality of the extensions ! Indeed, this point is very important. RH Excellence, offers natural hair extensions with quality Remy Hair, Indian origin.

The Remy Hair label ensures that the hair is carefully harvested : the hair is placed in the same direction (from the root to the tip), allowing the strands to remain beautiful for a long time. The hair is also naturally virgin, which means that the donor has never done any chemical treatment (color, perm, bleaching, ...) on his hair. Finally, it is 100% human hair.

Hair extensions do not damage your hair if you take care of them properly !

#2 : DO HAIR EXTENSIONS REQUIRE A LOT OF MAINTENANCE ?

Having hair extensions does not require much more maintenance than your natural hair. You just need to adapt your routine ! We already have written an article dedicated to this subject. Check out our article : "How to take care of my hair extensions ?"

Do you feel a knot at the base of your attachment point ? Contact your hairdresser for a maintenance appointment. This is important to keep your extensions in the best possible condition for as long as possible.

#3 : DOES MY HAIR GROW PROPERLY WHEN I WEAR HAIR EXTENSIONS ?

Many people may think that by wearing hair extensions, the natural hair does not grow properly. This is not true. Hair extensions don’t stop the natural growth of the hair in any way.

#4 : ARE THE HAIR EXTENSIONS DISCREET ?

When hair extension application is done correctly, the hairdresser have to make sure that the attachment points are not apparent. In fact, hair extensions must be placed under the "safe" area, that is to say under the eyebrow line, which allows enough hair to cover the attachment points.

#5 : DO HAIR EXTENSIONS BLEND WELL WITH MY NATURAL HAIR ?

We have 32 beautiful shades of hair extensions available to you ! You have a great chance of finding your perfect match, for the most natural look. And if you don't find what you're looking for, you always have the option of coloring the extensions. We advise you to first do a test on a test strand to be sure of the result. However, be careful, a discoloration on the extensions is strongly discouraged.

As we said earlier in the article, our hair extensions are of Remy Hair quality, which will bring a natural result to your hair !

#6 : CAN I APPLY HEAT TO MY HAIR EXTENSIONS ?

It is perfectly possible to apply heat to natural hair extensions, in the same way as you do to your own hair.

Just make sure you use the heaters sparingly and at the correct temperature.

You still don't dare to go for "permanent" extensions ? There are alternatives ! Clip-in extensions or halo extensions are so-called "removable" extensions. In only 5 minutes, add length and volume to your hair and remove them at night before taking a shower or going to bed.
