Are Extensions Right for You?

Are you looking to add volume and length to your hair in a natural, seamless way? If you're in Rochester, NY or Hilton, NY, and considering hand-tied beaded weft extensions, you’ve come to the right place! This extension method has been gaining popularity due to its versatility, longevity, and ability to blend flawlessly with natural hair. Here's everything you need to know before booking your appointment.


What Are Hand-Tied Beaded Weft Extensions?

Here at JGD, we specialize in hand-tied beaded weft extensions. You might also hear these called sew-in wefts, natural beaded row extensions, or handtied extensions.


Hand-tied beaded weft extensions are a method where small sections of your natural hair are threaded through tiny beads, and the weft (the extension hair) is sewn into the beads. Unlike other methods that use glue or heat, hand-tied extensions are gentle on the hair and cause no damage when properly installed & maintained, making them a great option for clients who want long-lasting results with less stress on their natural hair.


Benefits of Hand-Tied Beaded Weft Extensions

  1. Seamless Blending: Hand-tied wefts lay flat against the scalp, making the extensions nearly invisible. This technique ensures that the extensions blend perfectly with your natural hair, whether you’re wearing it straight or curly.

  2. No Damage: The installation method is gentler than other types of extensions, reducing stress on your natural hair and preventing breakage.

  3. Natural Look and Feel: These extensions are made from real human hair, so they look and feel just like your own. Plus, since they lay flat, there's no noticeable bulk or discomfort.

  4. Versatility: Hand-tied extensions work well with many hair types and textures, from straight to wavy to curly. They can also be customized to match any hair color, making them ideal for anyone wanting to add volume, length, or both.

  5. Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, hand-tied beaded wefts can last up to 8-10 weeks before needing maintenance. That means fewer salon visits and more time enjoying your gorgeous hair. The extension hair itself will need to be replaced every 6-8 months.





Why Choose Hand-Tied Extensions at JGD Salon?

Our artists here at JGD have taken multiple extension certification courses and continue to take continued ed classes frequently. We stay up to date on the latest methods, extension brands, and maintenance techniques. Here’s why you should consider visiting JGD Salon for your extension installation:

  1. Expertise in Customization: Our stylists will customize the extensions to perfectly blend with your natural hair color and texture. If needed, we can custom color wefts to get that perfect blend.

  2. Attention to Hair Health: A trained stylist will ensure your hair remains healthy throughout the process. Between products, placement, and treatments, the integrity of your hair is top priority for us. If we feel that your hair wouldn't be able to handle extensions due to pre-existing damage, we will be honest and tell you this. We'll help get you on a treatment regimen to get your hair ready for extensions, but we will not install them until we know your hair is ready for it!

  3. One-on-One Consultations: Whether you want subtle volume or dramatic length, we will take the time to understand your needs and recommend the best extension solution for you.


How Are Hand-Tied Extensions Installed?

During your consultation, your stylist will match the extension color to your natural hair and discuss the desired length and volume. The installation process involves:

  1. Sectioning the Hair: Your stylist will create small sections of your natural hair, focusing on where the extensions will be placed.

  2. Applying the Beads: Tiny silicone beads are used to secure small sections of your natural hair.

  3. Sewing in the Wefts: The hand-tied wefts are carefully sewn into the beads, ensuring a seamless, natural look.


The entire process typically takes around 2-3 hours, depending on how many wefts are installed.




Caring for Hand-Tied Extensions

To ensure your extensions last as long as possible, proper care is crucial. Here are a few tips to keep your hair looking flawless:

  1. Brush Gently: Use a special extension brush and always brush from the ends up to avoid tangling and pulling.

  2. Avoid Heat Damage: Limit the use of hot tools or always apply a heat protectant before styling.

  3. Shampoo with Care: Wash your hair less frequently and opt for sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to keep your extensions in top condition.

  4. Regular Maintenance: Plan to visit your stylist for maintenance every 8-10 weeks to reposition the wefts as your natural hair grows.

  5. Products: A custom product kit is included with your initial installation.
