Mode Hair Extensions

My turn in this beautiful haven we call our ‘workplace’ with my equally beautiful girls 🤍

MODE Hair Extensions is looking for Micro Keratin Bond models! 🤍

We’re so excited to be adding the amazing Micro Keratin Bonds to our services and are looking for a few models.

These bonds are SO tiny! They’re one of the most discreet extension methods available, making them perfect if you love a really natural finish.

Model offer:
✨ You just pay for the hair
✨ Fitting is only £50

If you’ve been thinking about trying keratin bonds, this is the perfect time.

Drop Shivs a message with a photo of your hair and what look you’re hoping to achieve, and she will let you know how much hair you’ll need.

As always, only our best quality hair will be used and every fitting will be carried out to the same standard as all other extension methods.

Limited model spaces available at Bingley home salon and Ilkley salon.

YOUR HAIR EXTENSIONS ARE ONLY AS GOOD AS THE PERSON FITTING THEM.

Hair extensions can give you the most incredible transformation but the results can also be disastrous when they’re fitted incorrectly.

Choosing your extensionist shouldn’t just be about finding the cheapest price or the quickest appointment.

Before trusting someone with your hair:

* Check their training and credentials.
* Ask how long they’ve been fitting extensions.
* Look at their own client work - not just supplier photos.
* Check their before & after results.
* Make sure they assess whether your natural hair is actually suitable.
* Ask about maintenance, removal and aftercare not just the initial fitting.

A skilled extensionist should consider your natural hair density, condition, lifestyle and desired result before recommending a method or amount of hair.

Done correctly, quality hair extensions are an investment.

They should blend beautifully, be fitted appropriately for your natural hair and come with proper advice on looking after them.

Done badly? They can become a very expensive mistake which we see time and time again :(

Cheap hair and poor fitting can mean wasted money and, more importantly, unnecessary stress or damage to your natural hair.

Don’t be afraid to ask questions. A reputable extensionist should be happy to show you their work and explain exactly what they’re recommending and why.

Choose your hair. Choose your extensionist. Choose wisely.

Meet the real boss of MODE… 🖤

This is Roxy Batfink Walker!

Official job title: Head of Security (including bag searches! 😂)

Actual responsibilities:
🖤 Greeting clients.
🖤 Accepting compliments.
🖤 Looking ridiculously cute.
🖤 Supervising absolutely everything I do.
🖤 Keeping a close eye on any snacks that might accidentally fall on the floor.

The question I get asked most is…

“Will she be there when I come?”

The answer is… probably! But don’t worry she will be chilling in the lounge waiting to be let out if you’re not a doggy person.

Roxy is very good at reading the room and is more than happy to retire to the lounge for some serious squirrel spotting if you’d rather have your appointment without a four-legged assistant 🐿️

No offence taken whatsoever 🙂‍↔️

For everyone else, expect the occasional little hello and the possibility of falling completely in love with her before you leave.

Let’s be honest… she’s got more repeat clients than I have 😂🖤

Have you met Roxy and her never ending ears yet??

One thing I wish more people knew about looking after their extensions this Summer…

Everyone talks about sun damage, hard water and chlorine.

But one of the biggest causes of wear and tear I see is actually friction 😖

Things like your seatbelt rubbing in the same place every day. A cross-body bag catching your hair. Rubbing it dry with a towel. That necklace with a scratchy surface snagging around your neck. Going to bed with it damp after a day at the beach.

They’re little things that don’t seem important but over weeks and months they all add up.

If you’ve invested in extensions (or even if you’re just trying to look after your own hair), here are a few simple things that really make a difference:

🤍 Pop it into a loose plait for long journeys and bedtime.
🤍 Squeeze your hair dry with a towel instead of rubbing it.
🤍 Rinse it with fresh water before and after swimming if you can.
🤍 Use a silk scrunchie rather than a tight bobble.
🤍 Make sure your roots and bonds are properly dry before bed.

I’ve been fitting extensions for over a decade now and honestly it’s rarely one big thing that causes problems.

It’s the little habits we don’t even think about 🫨

What’s the best hair tip you’ve ever been given? Or one you wish you’d known years ago?
