​Hello, beauty aficionados!

​At La Vida Salon and Spa, we pride ourselves on being at the forefront of the beauty world. One of our crown jewels? Hair extensions. Today, we're diving deep into three of our standout techniques: hand-tied, tape-in, and iTips extensions. Whether you're dreaming of volume, added length, or a whole new look, we're here to guide you.

​1. Hand-Tied Extensions

Why are they a favorite?
Hand-tied extensions involve wefts of hair being meticulously hand-sewn to ensure a seamless blend with your natural hair. Here's what makes them stand out:
​
  • Natural Appearance: These extensions promise a seamless transition, ensuring your extensions move and flow just like your natural locks.
  • Comfort: Thanks to the flat application, hand-tied extensions feel lightweight and are comfortable for day-to-day wear.
  • Customizable: Depending on your hair's thickness and the look you're going for, we can adjust the weft size to perfection.

​2. Tape-In Extensions

The quick transformation magic!
Tape-ins are sections of hair attached to double-sided tape, which are then sandwiched between sections of your natural hair. Their popularity continues to soar because:
​
  • Speed: Among all extension methods, tape-ins are relatively quick to apply, making them great for those on-the-go.
  • Less Strain: With wider sections, they distribute weight effectively, reducing strain on individual hair strands.
  • Reusability: With proper care, tape-in extensions can be reused multiple times, offering excellent value for money.

​3. iTips Extensions

Precision and flexibility combined.
iTips, often referred to as micro ring or micro bead extensions, are applied strand-by-strand and secured close to the scalp with tiny metal rings. Here's why they’re a hit:
​
  • No Heat or Glue: iTips are a cold fusion method, ensuring minimal potential damage to your natural hair.
  • Versatility: They allow for extensive styling options, from ponytails to braids and more.
  • Durability: With the right care, these extensions can be a lasting beauty investment, gracing your head for months.

​Which One is Right for Me?

Choosing the ideal extension method is personal and should be based on:

  • Lifestyle: For those always on the move, tape-ins might be a favorite due to quick application. If you're one for versatile styling, iTips could be your match. And if you're looking for a natural, everyday look, hand-tied could be the way to go.
  • Hair Type: Hand-tied is often recommended for finer hair, while thicker hair can handle iTips and tape-ins with ease.
  • Maintenance Level: While all extensions need love and care, some might require more regular salon check-ins.

For a personalized recommendation, why not visit us at La Vida Salon and Spa? Our specialists will provide an in-depth consultation, guiding you to the perfect hair solution.

​Conclusion

Hair extensions are more than just added strands; they're a means to achieve your dream look. At La Vida Salon and Spa, with our expertise in hand-tied, tape-in, and iTips, we're here to make your hair fantasies come true. Ready for a transformation?

Keep shining, and until next time!
