This page is intended
to offer support and guidance to Stylists wanting
to break into the hair replacement field. Know,
that what we are offering to the average stylist,
giant Hair Replacement Salons would rather keep
for themselves. Keeping this information a secret
gives them more power and control over the market,
for which the client suffers.
Stylist
Requirements:
Even if you've never worked
with a Hair System before, you may be qualified
and capable of attaching, cutting and styling our
Systems. All you need is experienced hair cutting
skills, including texturizing knowledge using a
razor and thinning shears, along with confidence
(which is what were here for if you need it).
If you would like to know more about the different
retightening methods and products needed than what
is offered here, go to our
'Custom Price List' page. We also offer an instructional
video.
Attachment
of System:
Men's Systems come with the capability
to Tape, Bond or Cable Weave. Taping is considered
daily wear because the wearer may remove it daily
themselves. Taping and Bonding start out in the
same manner. Double-sided tape (we sell in rolls)
is placed around perimeter from temple to temple
then stop. The contoured tape tab is placed in the
frontal area. Its easiest to stick the front down
first on the forehead in the desired position. Then
lift up the back and pull off cover of double-sided
tape. Daily wearers press the System down tight
on the head now. Tape will stick on skin or hair.
Extended wearers using the Bonding method, before
you press the System on, first run a thin squiggly
line of Hardbond adhesive (see our
price page) along the sticky
exposed tape. Important- only put this adhesive
on the tape, not right on the System itself. There
is no solvent for this hard bonding adhesive so
it will not come off whatever it comes in contact
with.
It is recommended that this adhesive be attached
to a short hair track on the head that has been
cut to about 1/4 inch long. To remove the System
in about 4-6 weeks you will cut it off with electric
clippers. Do not cut the hair right to the scalp.
Cable
Weave Track and Women's Attachment:
The Cable Weave method is extended
wear and requires a weaving machine to do the job
correctly. There is a little more involvement, but
its worth the time and investment. We have the World's
only patented Electric Cable Weaving Machine. It
beats all the wooden wall weave boxes, or corn row
braiding, hands down.
Women's Systems are typically different from men's.
Small clips may be sewn on for Daily wear. Cable
weave is the only option for extended wear. Bonding
won't work on women's Integration Systems. These
are Systems with a 1/4 ribbon perimeter and look
kind of like a big fish net base, called Braided
Mono Line. This allows the clients own hair to be
pulled up through and integrated with the addition
hair. No tape tabs are used at all. The Cable is
weaved in a complete circle, then the unit is sewn
onto the cable track. See our
Educational Video
for further information
on obtaining and using the Electric Cable weaving
method.
Cutting
the Systems:
Once the System has been attached
with desired method, now comes the fun part. Cutting
these Systems in allows the Stylist to use their
creative talents. For an Artist its like being given
a blank canvas that no one has previously touched.
It is the ultimate fulfillment in hair cutting.
To help in communicating with your clients desired
results, pictures can speak louder than words. Encourage
the client to bring a picture they like or show
them a picture you think they would look good in.
It helps to understand the difference of hair as
its growing from a head and hair in a System base.
As you know, new hair is always growing on a persons
head (Anagen Phase), dying (Catagen Phase), falling
out (Telogen Phase), then repeating itself. Because
of this there are many natural varying lengths on
the interior of a normal haircut.
Hair Systems come to us with all the hair in it
practically one length. Therefore, the first thing
we recommend the Stylist do is recreate hairs natural
growth pattern of having many lengths throughout.
This is called texturizing or thinning. To do this,
take small partings and go over entire System with
a straight feather razor preferably. Length can
also be removed during this process as well. You
may also use thinning shears by holding system hair
straight up and biting small chunks out at the halfway
point. This works well in the bang area to achieve
a light wispy look. The more de-bulking you do,
the more realistic the end result will be. As you
know, this hair cannot grow back, so error to the
side of caution. More hair can always be removed
later. Then use the shears to clean up and blend
the System with clients own hair.
As with regular hair cutting, Stylists may use their
own unique techniques when cutting the System in.
Rely on your own expertise, have confidence and
go for it. When you see the finished result, and
the happy client, it makes you feel so good!
