ULTRASONIC COLD FUSION

One of the most modern methods of hair extension available, very popular with the stars and stylists alike, as it’s gentle to the hair, barely visible and sit beautifully blended in with the clients’ natural hair.

These are keratin bond extensions that are attached to the natural hair using an ultrasonic sound wave machine. The ultrasonic waves soften the keratin glue to enable it to be moulded and secured into the hair.

This course aims to build confidence, and teach ultrasonic application skills on this Intermediate course! Using advanced connectors techniques to create the most up to date hair extensions trends.

Cold fusion was designed to eliminate the two areas of damage to the hair – heat and glue. Using cold ultrasonic pulses to soften the keratin bond extension, these extensions are impossible to fall out.

All the above courses includes Interactive Live Stream to support your Practical Unit (Optional at no extra charge).

• Fusion/Prebonds
  Hair fusion is a technique used to apply hair extensions ... It involves taking sections or strands of natural hair and then bonding them to the extensions using a Heat Connector in such a way that they appear to be a seamless, natural lock. 
• Micro Ring
  Micro Ring hair extensions use a technique with Micro Rings to combine strands of natural hair with the hair extension. ... The hair extensions are applied one strand at a time with the rings holding the extensions in place securely using a Hair Extension Pliers .No glues or chemicals are required.
• Nano Ring
  The process of fitting nano ring hair extensions involves placing individual strands to small sections of hair and securing them with a metal nano ring. The nano ring itself (as the name suggests) is tiny and 90% smaller than a traditional micro ring, which is why it is often more suitable for those with finer hair. 
• Tape Ins
  Tape-in hair extensions are thin tape wefts, 1 inch wide pre-taped hair wefts, that get “taped-in” in between your own hair in “sandwich” like bonds. ... This method is 100% natural, requires no tools or chemicals, lasts up to three months and the hair is reusable! 
• Braidless Weave aka LA WeaveThey lie much flatter to the head. Beads are strategically placed to secure the weft in place. There'll be less tension on your natural hair which can cause hair loss and damage. The wefts can easily be reused and repositioned. Without braids, the extensions are much more comfortable to sleep in. 
• Micro Ring Weft
  Micro ring wefts combine both the microring attachment and a hair weft. Small sections of the natural hair are threaded through each tiny micro ring and then the micro ring is clamped flat using Hair Extensions Pliers to secure it in place. Micro wefts are fast to apply and cause zero damage to your own hair. 
• Invisible Weave
  The Invisible Weave method ensures there are no visible attachments at the base and top of the extensions. ... Instead, this invisible weave method uses secret attachments which are hidden inside the weave so they cannot be seen when the hair is worn down or styled up. A brand new take on applying weft hair extensions that uses no heat, no glue, no braids and most importantly and what makes it so innovative is that there are no visible connections. The trend setter. The way it is applied hides the connection from both the top and the bottom and also enables a more comfortable and versatile fit for most hair types. In addition to this the row placements create a seamless finish giving more versatility to the client which makes high ponytails a lot more discreet. All designed for the most discreet fit. Our technique is suitable for use with most brands of weft hair extensions so rest assured there is no need to find a new supplier if you already have a favourite.
