‘But keratin glue is made out of the same stuff your hair is made of so it does cause any damage’ - MYTH! Keratins binds are made with a keratin resin that BINDS to the keratin on your cuticle and absolutely does cause damage

Wood glue isn’t made of wood
Keratin glue isn’t made of keratin

Neat sections = healthy hair when fitting nano rings ✨
ASK FOR “UNDER THE HOOD” PHOTOS WHEN CHOOSING YOUR EXTENSIONIST! It makes all the difference long term ⛓️💎

👀 You’re looking for:

🪄No cross hair
Each nano ring must contain only the hair from its own section. When hair crosses over into another bead it creates uneven tension, pulling from different directions which can lead to damage, discomfort and unnecessary stress on the scalp ⚡️

🪄Fit in clean, neat rows
The extensions should be fit in full u inform rows! Its make the hair easier to wash and much easier to maintain. From an extensionist’s perspective it’s also easier to monitor scalp health and give ‘anchor breaks’

🪄Correct spacing from the scalp
Leaving enough space between the bead and the scalp allows a full 180° rotation. This is essential for comfortable styling, ponytails and everyday movement without pulling or strain ✌️

🪄Bead colour matched to the root
Using a bead that matches the natural ROOT colour makes nano rings virtually invisible. No visible bonds here!

🪄Better grow-out & longevity
Neat sections grow down evenly, making maintenance appointments smoother and more comfortable while helping the extensions last longer between refits as theres less cutting! 👑

This is why nano rings aren’t just about the hair used… technique matters just as much 📩🖤

Common myth 🧚‍♀️

Nano rings fall out 🤔 😮

Well actually this is sometimes true… but that’s because of improper fitting!

So many hair extensions courses are outdated and don’t explain the difference between the types of nanos tips/bead or how to correctly pair them.

I only work with metal tipped nanos and silicone lined nano beads which is why my extensions don’t fall out and are SO comfortable for my clients ✨

Ever heard anyone describe their hair extensions as heavy? Or have you ever had someone describe the headache they get from the ‘extra weight’? ⚡️🤒

At MOST you’ll find me fitting 180g of hair on a single client… and that’s no we here near enough to cause pain.

The pain isn’t caused by the WEIGHT it’s caused by the TENSION from the section of hair that’s inside the beads when it’s pulled too tight and clamped shut!

Beads that have been fitted too tight to the scalp pull at the hair follicle and cause tension headaches. This would cause this pain without any hair extensions being attached at all!

Understanding a safe install is understanding that those section have to be loose enough to still have movement but the secure bead so that the client doesn’t experience slipping 🙅‍♀️

SPOT THE SILICONE!

The Difference Is in the Details ✨

It’s the little things that make a BIG difference. That’s why I use beads with colour-matched silicone inside instead of standard white silicone.

Here’s why:
✔️ More discreet – The whole bead blends with your natural hair and extensions.
✔️ Premium quality – These beads cost more to produce, but I think they’re worth it.
✔️ *Durable finish – No chipped paint here! Our beads stay looking fresh and professional for the entire duration of wear.

Exciting News: Faith is Joining the Team at Hair Tech & Co!

✨ A full-circle moment I’m so proud to share. ✨

I First met Faith when she came to me for hair extensions! During our appointment, she quietly shared her interest in learning the skill herself but admitted she didn’t feel confident enough to take the leap.

Over the last 3 years, our relationship has grown into a wonderful friendship. I watched her push through hard times personally and display amazing determination, and belief in herself which she didn’t think she could ever have.

When she expressed she would like to book onto one of my draining days last March I was so excited!

From the moment we started, Faith’s natural talent absolutely blew me away. Her dedication, attention to detail, and genuine passion for hair extensions were undeniable.

Today, I’m beyond excited to announce that Faith is officially joining the Hair Tech & Co. team!

Watching her grow into this role has been so rewarding, and I know she’ll bring so much love and skill to every client she works with.

Faith, I’m so proud of you and everything you’ve accomplished so far. This is just the beginning, and I can’t wait to see you shine in this next chapter. 🌟

Welcome to the team, Faith – you’ve truly earned this. ❤️

Give her a follow!
