Keratin Bonds are the original yet still
massively popular way of extending hair. Keratin, the building blocks of both
your hair and nails, is bonded to the living hair using a heat connector, a
simple device that looks like a pair of pliers.
What is Keratin in The Keratin Bonds?
Keratin is a natural protein that is found in
most animals, as well as in us where it exists and ‘grows’ out of our scalp and
nails. Keratin Bonds are as small as a couple of grains of rice and once attached
are a very discrete method of connecting the extension to your hair.

While the attachments are strong they are
kind to the hair when attached properly because they grip firmly and don’t pull
at the root. They are also easy to remove.
Maintaining Keratin Bonds
Generally the Keratin Bonds can last up to 12
months depending on the quality of the hair piece, remembering the old adage, ‘buy
cheap, buy twice’. Your best approach to using hair extensions is to take
advice from an experienced professional; with correct aftercare and maintenance
you will look great for longer than you might think.
The Keratin Bonds have to be maintained every
2-3 months depending on how quick your natural hair grows and your own hair
type. This is because the hair grows from the root, moving the Keratin Bonds
further out, potentially allowing it to become visible.
The maintenance of the bonds is a longer
process than the initial fitting as a full removal of the bonds is done before
they are re-tipped by hand during the session and put back onto your own hair
with the new Keratin Bonds. This method may be a longer process but the results
achieved are simply amazing.
