Hair Extensions


What are Nano Extensions?

Nano extensions are discreet, small hair extensions attached via tiny crystal polymer bonds. These extensions require the laser beamer machine by heating and cooling (like hugging the hair) to create the bond in the hair, making them less damaging to natural hair. They come in various types, including 100% natural human hair, enhancing length, volume, or colour. When well-maintained, they can last several months. At L.A Hair Designs in Toowoomba, we specialize in providing these popular, high-quality nano hair extensions.


What are MicroLines Integrated Hair Extensions?

MicroLines Integrated Hair Extensions, offered by L.A Hair Designs in Toowoomba, are an innovative solution for managing hair loss or thinning hair. Using a MicroLine made of 100% natural human hair, this system enhances volume and thickness beyond traditional extensions. 

Notably, the durable MicroLine can last up to two years before needing replacement. As an official HairDreams® partner, L.A Hair Designs ensures expert application of this transformative hair solution, providing lasting results for those dealing with hair concerns.


What are Tape Hair Extensions?

Tape hair extensions from L.A Hair Designs Toowoomba, are pre-taped 100% human hair attachments applied to your natural hair using a glue like adhesive. These extensions blend seamlessly, add length, volume, or color, and are ideal for thin or fragile hair. 

They require readjustment every 3-6 weeks and may necessitate specific hair care products to maintain quality and longevity.

Are hair extensions bad for your hair?


While correctly applied and cared for hair extensions should not harm your hair, improper handling could cause damage. Potential issues include:

  1. Tension Alopecia: Caused by overly tight extensions pulling on hair roots.
  2. Heat and Glue Damage: Certain extensions use heat and glue for attachment, which can harm hair.
  3. Poor Care: Extensions need proper maintenance to avoid tangling and matting.
  4. Overuse: Continual wear of extensions without giving natural hair a break can cause damage.

To ensure hair health, get your extensions professionally installed, maintained, and removed, and adhere to aftercare guidelines. Consult a professional, like those at L.A Hair Designs, for extensions suitable for your hair type and lifestyle.


Are hair extensions permanent?

Hair extensions are not permanent and necessitate regular upkeep and readjustment. Here's a brief rundown on common types:

  1. Nano Extensions: Small, discreet extensions needing periodic adjustment, lasting several months.
  2. MicroLines Integrated Hair Extensions: Designed for hair loss management, lasts up to two years, considered permanent with regular maintenance on the bonds to secure the MicroLine to the natural hair.
  3. Tape Hair Extensions: Bonded with glue, semi-permanent needing adjustment every 3-6 weeks.
  4. Clip-in Extensions: Temporary, can be attached and removed daily.
  5. Sew-in or Weave Extensions: Sewn into braided hair, last a few weeks to months with regular maintenance.
  6. Fusion or Pre-bonded Extensions: Strand-by-strand application, lasting 3-4 months with care.
  7. Micro Ring or Loop Extensions: Last three to four months, looped and clamped with a metal bead.

Each type requires professional handling to prevent hair damage and none are considered permanent due to regular maintenance needs.


Are hair extensions made with real hair?

Hair extensions can be made with real hair, synthetic material, or a mix. Here's a brief overview:

  1. Human Hair Extensions: Made from donor hair. 'Remy' hair, the highest quality, is root-to-tip aligned to preserve natural texture and shine. These extensions can be styled and cared for like natural hair.
  2. Synthetic Hair Extensions: Composed of synthetic fibres, these don't contain human hair. They can't withstand heat styling and have a shorter lifespan.
  3. Mixed Hair Extensions: A blend of human and synthetic hair. They offer a cost-effective middle ground with moderate longevity and styling options.

The choice among these depends on your budget, requirements, and lifestyle. Consult with your hair extension specialist here at L.A Hair Designs for advise tailored for your needs.
