Hair extensions - technology. Hair extension. Cold extension: reviews, photos

We continue our review of hair extension methods. Today I propose to get acquainted with this type of Spanish extensions (you can read about other methods)

A little history

40 years ago, hairdresser (and at the same time wizard and benefactor) Simon Forbes invented the method of hair extensions. At first, this innovation was elite, did not have widespread distribution and was only possible for movie stars and show business divas, but gradually became accessible to the public, and has existed in Russia for about 10 years. There are several hair extension technologies, the difference is in the method of attaching additional strands. A special place among others is occupied by the so-called Spanish extension. It is so named because it was Spanish hairdressers who invented the wonderful special Rueber glue.

This is a two-component glue that securely secures donor strands and does not damage your own hair. Spanish build-up belongs to the group of cold capsule hair extension methods. For this type of extension there is one prerequisite: your own hair should not be short, at least 10 cm; this extension is not suitable for girls with short hair.

Extension technology

Prepared high quality donor strands are connected with keratin capsules. The master softens the keratin with the help of an activator and connects it with natural strands with his hands, retreating 1 cm from the roots and forming small, neat, flat capsule connections.

In this way, your own and false strands are firmly and imperceptibly connected. The glue can be transparent or light, so this method was previously recommended to owners blonde hair. Now some salons offer glue dark shades, for brunettes. Typically, extensions require from 150 to 200 strands; this procedure is not quick, it takes up to 3.5 hours. The result lasts from 4 months to six months.


Correction

After 3 months, correction is required, because gradually the glue begins to break down and the hair grows, making the capsules more visible. Correction takes a lot of time, more than extension. Each capsule is treated with a solvent, and the extension strand is easily separated. The master cleans the hair from glue residues and re-extensions.

The advantages of this type of extension

Hair is not damaged by high temperatures or special devices;

The two-component glue used in this method is hypoallergenic, as it is based on keratin;

After extensions, many manipulations with hair are available: they can be dyed, straightened, tinted, and any hair care products can be used with virtually no restrictions;

The capsules provide a strong and reliable attachment, the hair is not combed out;

Removed during correction simply and without pain;

The length of hair extensions can be up to 70 cm;

Additional strands are used repeatedly;

The price is less compared to other types of extensions.

Disadvantages of this method

Most big drawback this type of extension means the inability to visit a sauna or steam bath; at sea you need to take care of your hair in every possible way so as not to get it wet;

Both extension and correction take a lot of time and are quite labor-intensive

Not suitable for girls with short hair, because... hair length should be from 10 cm;

With improper care and corrections done at the wrong time, your own hair can be damaged.

It must be remembered that good result is possible provided that the extension is performed by a qualified specialist who uses high-quality materials, and also do not forget that any extension is still a small additional load for natural hair, so they need to be given rest, taking breaks between extension procedures.

It makes it possible to firmly and reliably bond donor curls with natural strands. With this technology, only pre-prepared natural strands, which are formed from European and Slavic hair of impeccable quality. The procedure does not cause inconvenience and does not lead to negative consequences.



Advantages and disadvantages

Spanish extensions, like other popular techniques, have their strengths and weaknesses. Girls who want to apply for this service should familiarize themselves with both. Positive aspects a lot of.

  • The correction will take no less time, and the procedure itself always turns out to be quite labor-intensive, and it should not be neglected under any circumstances.

Execution technique

Using a special activator, the master makes the keratin capsules already applied to the prepared strands softer. It is necessary to attach the curls at an approximate distance of 1 cm from the roots. Usually craftsmen make a special flat connection manually. Outwardly, it looks more like a capsule. To ensure that the connecting areas are not conspicuous and invisible, the size of the capsules can be reduced. However, it must be borne in mind that with such actions the Spanish build-up becomes less sustainable.

The specialized two-component glue used during such extensions can have either a transparent structure or match the shade of the strands. As soon as the adhesive component dries completely, a small light capsule will appear at the attachment points, which will not be noticeable.


If you decide to turn to trendy and safe Spanish extensions, then you should familiarize yourself not only with its pros and cons, but also with its care features. Only if you treat your extensions with proper care, they will last for quite a long time and will not lose their attractiveness.

  • Treat your hair extensions with care and precision. Always make sure that the extensions do not get tangled.
  • After completing the procedure, you should not wash your hair for 2-3 days. It is advisable not to neglect this rule, otherwise you can seriously damage the attachment of the extended strands.
  • In the future, it is recommended to wash your hair very carefully and carefully. It is better not to make sudden movements.
  • You can apply your favorite masks and balms along the entire length of your hair without fear of damaging the capsules. This will not dissolve them.



  • Do not comb your hair extensions while they are wet under any circumstances. You can comb your hair only after it has dried at least a little. If tangled knots appear, it is advisable to immediately untangle them carefully. Do not leave such defects, otherwise it will be much more difficult to get rid of them later.
  • It is recommended to dry the attached strands exclusively using blotting movements. Be careful not to curl your hair with the towel.
  • Quickly dry the extensions with a hairdryer. Keep the equipment away from your head and do not bring it close to avoid harm.
