BlondeWear
We make our own extension hair so we can guarantee the quality, the color, and up to two years of wear. Our stylists are certified in several install methods, so the method fits your hair, not the other way around.
Hair we make. Installs we stand behind.
Every BlondeWear weft is color-matched to you before it is ever installed. Our stylists are certified in more than one method, so the install fits how you wear your hair: down, up, in a ponytail, at the gym.
Wear it for up to two years with maintenance every six to eight weeks.
Living with extensions
What do I need to know about styling my extensions?
You can wash, blow dry, straighten, curl or put them up like your own hair. Every extension client gets a care guide. The three habits that matter most:
- Brush them morning, night and before showers so they do not tangle.
- Use salon products that are paraben and sulfate free, low or no alcohol, lightweight and effective. Your stylist will name specific ones.
- Keep hot tools and blow dryers on medium heat.
Can you see the extensions?
We offer two install methods, and both can be undetectable. Each is placed so your own hair covers the wefts whether you wear it down or up. How invisible they are depends on the method, the density of your hair, how you style it, and the length of your hair today.
Can I swim in them?
Ocean water and pool chlorine can shorten the life of your extensions. Salt and chemicals dry the hair out, which leads to matting, and they strip color. If you plan to get your hair wet anyway, the care sheet has steps that help.
How often do I need to get them redone?
Anywhere from 6 to 10 weeks. It depends on the method, how fast your hair grows, how much oil your scalp produces, how often you wash, whether you chose extensions for function or for luxury, and how active you are.
How long does the hair last?
We recommend replacing the hair every 9 to 12 months. Some people wear our line for up to two years, but most of us are a little rough on our hair sometimes.
Do extensions cause breakage, balding or thinning?
They can, which is why the method has to fit your hair. You are in our chair for one to six hours, then we do not see you for 6 to 10 weeks. Our job is to read the state of your natural hair and choose the right method. Your job is to care for them between visits, and we give you the guidance to make sure none of that happens.
How do they feel?
Strange at first. They feel a little tight when first installed, and after a week you stop noticing them.
Who is a good candidate for extensions?
Thick hair, thin hair, long hair, shoulder-length hair: nearly everyone, depending on the look you want. Extensions add length and fullness, fill in sparse areas that will not grow, or add a little thickness. The one thing that matters for blending is that the top layer of your hair is at least chin length. Shorter hair can still work, but it takes more styling skill, so if you have no time to style, these may not be for you.
How often should I wash my hair?
Two to three times a week, in the morning or during the day, to clear the build-up from natural oils, skin and styling products and keep your scalp healthy. If you have to wash in the evening, make certain the hair is fully dry through the extensions before you sleep.
Can I bring my own hair for you to install?
Yes, but we cannot guarantee its quality or know its true source unless it was bought through us.
