 She also has a profound love for continuing her education in hair and saw issues clients were facing with past extension methods that had failed them. Clients were looking for extensions that are gentle on the hair, wouldn’t cause scalp irritation, extensions that are lightweight and flexible, blend seamlessly with the natural hair, are effortless to wear and could be hidden when in a ponytail even with fine fragile hair. 

Melinda began her journey to try different extension methods to find the best possible solution for her clients and one she felt good about recommending.

 

The solution was a sew in Hand Tied Beaded Weft Extension. These are applied with a foundation that would distribute weight evenly while providing a slim profile that is easily concealed. Solving the issues she had previously dealt with in other methods. She could feel good about providing a safe and healthy method of Hair Extensions that will giving them the hair they have always dreamed of.
