HOW-TO STEPS

1Before
-
2Start by applying and processing custom-colored extensions. Dip-dye 10 Hairtalk Original Tape-In Extensions in Color 613 into a bowl of Formula A to create a marbleized jewel effect. Then, squeeze to remove any excess color. Separate the extensions and lay them on a flat surface, then paint over every extension lightly with Formula B.
Pro Tip: When dip-dyeing extensions, don’t completely submerge them into the water to avoid compromising adhesive bands.
-
3Repeat the same process on 12 Hairtalk Petite Tape-In Extensions in Color 613 by applying Formula C, squeezing any excess color and reapplying Formula C for an extra pop of purple.
Pro Tip: Remember that saturating different sections more than others will create dimension throughout the extensions.
-
4Then, create the custom-colored shadow root using Hairtalk Original Plus Tape-In Extensions in Color 613 by slightly brushing Formula C over the hand-sewn hair that falls over the adhesive tab.
Pro Tip: Avoid oversaturating the adhesive side and ensure the extensions are completley dry before applying, otherwise the adhesive will be compromised.
-
5To create the icy pop of color, use Hairtalk Original Tape-In Extensions in Color 60A and submerge them into a bowl of purple shampoo and water. The longer the extensions process, the more silver they will become.
-
6Process, then rinse all of the extensions in cold water. Skip the shampoo and only condition the ends of the hair. Prior to application, blow-dry completely to keep the adhesive intact.
-
7Then, start applying 3 rows of the Hairtalk Original Tape-In Extensions (a combination of Formula A & B). On clients with blunt haircuts, always soften the ends to create the perfect blend.
-
8At row 4, starting above the ears, apply the pre-toned Original Tape-In Extensions in 60A paired with custom-colored lavender (Formula A) to highlight around the face frame.
-
9Then apply a combination of alternating extensions in row 5 to create an iridescent effect.
-
10At row 6, apply the Original Plus Tape-In Extensions with shadow roots (Formula D) on top, with a variety of custom-colored extensions underneath. Use texturizing shears to diffuse the rooted extensions to allow the dimensional colors underneath to pop through.
-
11To blend and fill out the client’s from hairline, apply Hairtalk Mini Tape-In Extensions in Color LA/23R.
-
12After the extension application process is complete, blend and style!
