Hidden bead Extensions
Hidden Bead Extensions are an extremely versatile extension method that give you the most coverage while being the most discrete. I use hand tied extensions for this method. You can use them just for a little bit of fullness, to add some length, or go for the mermaid hair of your dreams!
The days of obvious extensions are over! Now more than ever there are so many different extension methods available.
I love Hidden Bead Extensions because they are the least damaging method in my experience. Your extensions are installed using only bead and string. That means no sticky adhesive pulling on your hair! The way the extensions are installed ensure even distribution of weight throughout your hair to make sure there is no excessive stress at any point on your scalp to ensure a healthy grow-out and maintain healthy natural hair.

Yes! You can swim in your extensions. It recommended that when you do, you coat your hair in leave in conditioner before putting your extensions in a braid to prevent unnecessary tangles after swimming. It is always recommended to wash and use a moisturizing conditioner on your hair right after going in salt water or chlorine.

NO! Sunscreen has an active ingredient in it called Avobenzone that will change change the color of your extensions to a pink/peachy color if it comes into contact with the hair. Once this chemical reaction occurs, unfortunately, I can’t fix it. However, there are plenty of sunscreens out there without this active ingredient in them that are safer to use with your extensions.
I always recommend tying your hair up off of your neck/ shoulders to protect it from the sunscreen until it is fully dried into your skin.

Yes! The hidden bead method is installed where your hair is sewn in surrounding your beads. That way when you pull up your hair, the bead is completely hidden and the extension is so discrete no one will ever question it!
