Guest carla Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 hi Valarie, I live in California. I'm interested in learning more about hair fusion (as a potential client). How expensive is it? How long does it take? How long does it last? Is there a salon in Northern California that you would recommend? etc. Any additional information you could include would be helpful. Thank You.

Taylor Posted November 9, 2004 Report Share Posted November 9, 2004 I am a fusion specialist, I would be delighted to answer any questions on the subject of strand by strand hair fusion technique. It is a hair weaving technique that is undetectable. You can perm and color your hair with the system in place. IT IS WONDERFUL!! Hi I am so tired of trying to let my natural hair grow. Lately I've been thinking about getting hair fusion. The problem is that I am a broke college student who don't have any money to have a professional do my hair. Getting to the point, I'm one of those people who usually do their own hair and is willing to learn every new technique there is for my hair. I want to know how to fuse my own hair and where I can purchase the fusion equipment and hair. Thank you in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest msalbarran Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Strand by Strand Hair Fusion is perfect for short natural hair, the results are immaculate and very natural looking. Fusion is most commonly used for thinning or damaged hair, but the great thing is that it can be used on short hair in good condition to help maintain growth, health and shine. Fusion does not work for all hair types however, one must have 2-3 inches of hair length in order for it to hold with long lasting satisfying results, usually 3-4 months. The hair stylist professional of your choice will assist you in choosing the right shampoo, moisturizer, conditioner and other hair products that will help in the maintenance of your new hair. I am not familiar with your area, but I am sure that if you can't find a trained stylist there, it would be well worth the travel to go abroad for the technique. Oops I almost forgot to tell you, if your interested in a similar look but can't afford the cost of Fusion, look into thin machine weft techniques, they have great results and less shedding than normal sew-ins. By the way, Fusion barely ever sheds, tangles, or frays at the ends, which keeps a fresh look up until the very last month before your next visit for application. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusion is good for natural hair but it is important to find the right texture of extention hair, African American hair is easier to match when the hair is relaxed and that is my prefrence, I am located in the Laurel MD. area, please e-mail me a contact number at hairbyvalencia@yahoo.com so that we can further discuss this matter and maybe set up a complimentary consultation.

Guest shareese Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 Hi Valencia, I'm very interested in Strand By Strand Hair Fusion. I'm in the NYC area, and although I have a beautician whom I vist faithfully every two weeks, She's not very familiar with the Fusion technique. Do you know of any Salons this way who does Fusion. Oh and do you have any idea of how much this costs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

valencia Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 WARNING LADIES!! NEGATIVE HAIR FUSION CLAIMS Hello Again Everyone....... Whenever I do research on hair extensions I am disapointed with the amount of negative information out there, for example one site stated that in 17 years they have yet to see a patron who has not experianced hair breakage do to fusion....I GUESS THAT IS BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER USED THEIR SERVICES...... But what didn't suprise me is they offered no explantion why they thought the fusion caused the breakage. They only offer the sew in method which is great for some people but not everyone. For example my hair is very thin therefore the sew in method feels bulky and heavy to me, but there are ladies with thicker hair that have two or three tracks sewn in and love it. There is another site that claims some fusion glue tends to get mushy I think was the word they used, well I don't know if that is true I only know I have never used that product and if I had I would just stop using it. I not only offer hair extension services, I am also a customer, I refuse to give advice about something that I have not worn and tested MYSELF along with feedback from my clients. Experiance is the best teacher and a stylist can only respond to what the client tell them. Hair breakage can be cause by a number of things improper care of your extensions is one but also chemicals, medications, allergies, stress to name a few. We have no idea what the client does when they get home other than what we are told, for example I had a client who thought her hair extentions was causing her breakage so I removed them only to find out that she was allergic to a chemical in her hair color, but because the services were done so close together she assumed it was her extensions, needless to say she had the service done again and has enjoyed them for the past three years (using a rinse instead of permanent color). Please use testimonials and recommendations as a guide and not law because we are all individuals, make sure the stylist you choose treats you accordingly. Please remember there is not a hair service out there that is safe from hair breakage claims, My Advice is ask questions, anything that comes to mind, write them down if you have to, ask yourself Why do I want this service? What are my goals? (thickness, highlights, hair growth) And if your stylist is like me and offer only fusion ask if they have qualified back-up stylist, comfortable working with fusion to perform your bi-weekly services if you don't do them yourself. I hope this helps and stop at least some of the confusion. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS VALENCIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valencia Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 TO MY FELLOW STYLIST I love and respect you all, but I have a bone to pick with some of you (AND YOU WILL KNOW WHO YOU ARE) Why not concentrate on the many reasons a client should use your products and/or services instead of why they should not use others? We all know that every technic doesn't work for everyone IT IS SO GREAT TO HAVE CHOICES. Please don't post negative things about a service because you don't offer it , had a bad experiance with it, or have clients that have had a bad experiance. I have found that for every one bad experiance there are 100 success stories, (anyone in the business long enough will agree) and for every reason you give not to use a product or service there are many stylist and clients with reasons why they should, who would you rather consult: the person that waste time with negativity or the positive professonal who will help fix the problem. I have run accross my share of products that I dislike, I just don't use them or recommend them, and I know people who use nothing but those products and love them, they have their reasons and I have mine and you know what? We are both correct. Some of the most sucessful companies concentrate on customer service. Personally when I choose a service or product I am selfish. If I am going to spend my money I want to know how you are going to benefit ME? What are you going to do to make ME more beautiful? And if a mistake was made using another product and/or service I need to know that you can fix it for ME. For every problem there is a solution and it is so easy to say negative things about a problem that we don't have a fix for, but it takes an expert to find and execute the fix. Why not concentrate on customer service and not customer dollars. Thank You Valencia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jas Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 I'm the person that is associated with www.agapecollection.com Unfortunately we're not in DC. I just added the link for you all to be able to read more detailed information on the fusion and other weaving techniques. You actually need to click on the hair studio button and then click on fuson. I agree with you Valencia, people shouldn't give opinions on something that they know nothing about. For several years, I would never do fusion because of this reason. Our company created our own fusion adhesive that's actually good for your hair. Also, what causes damage (not only with fusion) but with most weaves, is that the person tries to remove them on their own. Not that there's anything wrong with this, but the average person becomes tired and frustrated and will begin pulling and tearing their hair just to get it out. Even with those whose hair has been damaged from the commercial fusion that most companies use. It usually doesn't get damaged until the removal process.

valencia Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Thank You for your response Agape Hair Co. You are exactly right I have had several customers who try to remove the system themselves even after I have told them that I will do it for them or give them a lesson on how to do it, the good thing is that they called me before they did any real damage to their hair. This is why it is so great to have tools like this message board, LADIES PLEASE ask questions and do your research before having any service done.
