Keratin bond hair extensions are known to be the safest most gentle attachment and are safe to wear even on the finest hair (must be applied by an experienced stylist) for many years with little to no down time, our hair extensions specialists pride themselves on damage-free applications.

This means you can safely wear keratin bond hair extensions for over 10 years with no down time and no damage!

They are not recommended to anyone suffering from alopecia, psoriasis or any other scalp disorder.

Cut: your Hair extensions can be cut and shaped to blend in with your natural hair.

Styled: your Elite hair extensions are best when styled using blow driers, straighteners, curling tongs or rollers.

Due to the normal growth rate of natural hair, extensions should be removed after 6 months. However this will vary from person to person depending on your hair type. You can remove and replace new pieces on the same day.

Permanent hair colours are only recommended when colouring your re-growth. But we do not recommend combing the colour through to the ends.

There are many things to consider when deciding which method of application is best suited to your hair type and life style. At Elite hair extensions we take the time before applying your extension to ensure we use the right hair type to texture match and the best suited attachment for your hair type and lifestyle. Here is a rundown on a few of the different methods available.

Application: the extensions are attached to the natural hair with a patented keratin bond.

Removal: salon-only. They’re dissolved with a removal solution that promises not to damage your hair’s natural cuticle.

Lasts: 3 to 6 months if cared for correctly. We provide regular check up appointments to ensure the extensions are being cared for correctly to ensure they last the maximum amount of time. Keratin bonds are generally the most discrete and comfortable as well as natural looking.

Application: This method of hair extensions uses no glue, no heat, no remover and if applied properly will not damage the hair. A small and carefully sectioned area of hair is inserted through the same micro bead and is pressed firmly with a pair of pliers to lock the hair firmly inside the bead. The pressed rings lie flat against the head. No glue is used with this method.

Removal: is simple, the same pliers are used to open the bead which will then slide off the hair.

Lasts: 12 months before you will need to replace the hair or longer depending on how well you care for it however you will need to have a refit/ moved up every 8-12 weeks. Refit costs are generally $200-$250 each time.

Application: This method is similar to the micro rings method but in place of the ring, a clear tube is used instead. Heat is applied to the tube causing it to shrink on to the hair and extension to provide a bond.

Lasts: 3-4 months

Removal: They are removed with a removal solution.

Application: This method uses the wefts similar to clip- in extensions. These are small strips of tape with the hair attached. Your hair is sandwiched between the extension tapes.

Lasts: The tape extensions will need to be refitted/ moved up every 6-8 weeks

Removal: An alcohol solution is used to remove the adhesive from the tapes, your tape extensions can be reused after cleaning by reapplying new tape. Refit costs are generally $200-$250 each time.

Keratin bonds can’t be reused as they are a permanent hair extension. They suit women who want a low maintenance option with long term wear.

keratin bonds don’t require removal and reapplication every 6 weeks like other hair extension types. This avoids the damage caused by excessive removal of glues/resins/beads, once our bonds are removed there is no left over residue and your hair should be as it was under the attachment point.Another advantage is you will save $$$ on reapplication costs (up to $1000 in that same 6 month period to be precise)

When we remove your hair extensions, we then donate the hair to be repurposed for wigs for people with cancer and alopecia so they do get a second wear!
