Micro Tape Hair Extensions Brisbane

What are Micro Tape Hair Extensions? Well, they're like a cross between the tape and the size of the beads or fusion hair extensions. Everybody loves tape extensions, but they hate when they stick out or bend or twist when you style your hair - Micro Tape fixes this. Because the tape sections are so small and flexible, you can wear your hair in any style without seeing them at all.

They are especially amazing in very fine hair. They are light weight and easy to apply and remove, giving minimal risk to damage. They are also very good quality Russian hair and will stay easy to brush, wash, style and manage.

The owners and distributors of Micro Tape Hair Extensions are located in Brisbane Australia and sell the hair to salons around the world, in total there are approx 70 stockists internationally since the company launched in 2013.

Where are the Best Hair Extensions in Brisbane?

In the whole 8 years we've been in business, and using so many different brands and methods of hair, we are constantly seeing girls come to us who have been to other 'cheaper' hair extension salons, in Brisbane and the Gold Coast who claim to have the best quality thickest hair, which we need to fix.

So, we just want to fill you in on a few rumours in the hair extension industry.

1. Thicker hair is usually double drawn, which means it is collected from more than one persons head to become hair extensions. This means it's the same thickness to the ends, but often ends up very tangly and hard to wash and brush, because the hair strands are not the same texture, and it can be hard to get the brush and conditioner the whole way through the hair.

Also the heavier the hair extensions are, the more weight and 'pulling' is done on your natural hair, which can cause breakage and damage.

We suggest your hair extensions match your natural hair, eg: if you don't have super thick hair, you don't get super thick extensions otherwise you will likely be able to see them when you tie your hair up and they will be heavy and cause damage.

2. European hair is not always european, or good. I used to buy from a local supplier who told me her hair was european, I later found out it was korean, she told me I could sell it as whatever I wanted to sell it as and tell the clients what they wanted to hear. Enough said.

Also, 'europe' is a big place. The hair is not going to be the same in every packet. Will it be from someone with frizzy curly hair? Or someone with straight damaged hair?

3. Human hair extensions come from humans. Not all humans are the same. You cannot expect every lot of hair you get to be the same. You have no idea what that human did to their hair before the hair ended up in your hair.

Due to the hair being human hair, you can also expect it to act like human hair, in the way that the ends will split, the ends might dry out, and it needs proper washing, brushing and styling.

Because the hair is dead and not growing from your scalp, it does not absorb any natural hair oils or nutrients from your diet, which is why it can be much dryer than your natural hair.

This is why it is so important to use really good quality shampoo, conditioner, treatments, heat protectants and oils and serums to keep the hair extensions in good condition.

The hair we import, sell and use in our salon is from Russia and it is Virgin single drawn hair, which means the person who sold their hair to our factory has not coloured or bleached their hair before it was sold. It's natural. It's also sold in a pony tail and made into extensions from one persons hair. The hair will stay much easier to brush, wash, style and maintain because of this.

The ends will not be as thick, but when the ends are too thick and blunt it looks too much like extensions anyway and can be noticeable that your long hair is fake.

It's normal for your hair to be a little bit thinner at the ends.

We've written a whole other blog post comparing the different hair extension methods, the most popular being tape and micro bead hair extensions, however, last year we launched a brand new method which is proving to be the most popular method ever!

Using our Russian hair we now supply and apply our own brand of Micro Tape Hair Extensions, which basically combine the best features of the beads and tape together.

They are small, flat, flexible and really hard to see. Also they are light and non-damaging.

You can tie your hair up while wearing them and not even see them!
