Thinking about hair extensions but not sure where to start? At Tiffany Frances, we offer Nano and Tape Extensions in partial, half-head, and full-head applications — all tailored to your lifestyle, hair type, and dream look. Here’s a simple guide to help you understand the process, from consultation to aftercare.
Why Extensions?
Extensions aren’t just about adding length. They can:
- Add thickness to fine hair
- Boost volume for styling
- Fill in areas where hair feels sparse
- Give you that wow factor for special occasions or everyday confidence
Types of Extensions We Offer
- Nano Extensions: Tiny, discreet beads that hold the hair in place. Perfect for a natural, lightweight feel.
- Tape Extensions: Flat, tape-in wefts that blend seamlessly with your natural hair. Great for quick application and volume.
We can apply these as:
- Partial Head – for filling out thinner areas or adding a touch of volume.
- Half Head – for extra body and fullness, often paired with your natural hair length.
- Full Head – for a complete transformation with maximum length and volume.
Your Consultation
Every extension journey starts with a thorough consultation. During this appointment, we will:
- Discuss your hair goals (length, thickness, style).
- Assess your natural hair to ensure it’s healthy enough for extensions.
- Talk you through the best method (Nano or Tape) for your lifestyle.
- Colour-match the extensions so they blend seamlessly.
- Explain the investment, aftercare, and maintenance schedule.
This step is all about creating a customised plan so you get results that look natural and feel comfortable.
Aftercare
Extensions are an investment, so looking after them properly is key. We’ll guide you through everything, but here are some basics:
- Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner to protect both your natural hair and the bonds/tapes.
- Brush gently with an extension-friendly brush, starting from the ends and working up.
- Avoid putting conditioner or oils directly on the bonds or tapes.
- Sleep with your hair in a loose braid or ponytail to prevent tangling.
Maintenance
Extensions need regular check-ins to keep them looking their best:
- Nano Extensions: Maintenance is usually every 6–8 weeks, where we move them up as your natural hair grows.
- Tape Extensions: Maintenance is usually every 4-6 weeks, where we reapply and re-tape them.
These appointments are essential to keep your hair healthy and your extensions secure and flawless.
