Completely customized blonding + single donor K-Tip install on my girl Emma Kate Willman

p.s. swipe to see the natural curl🤭🤭🤭

1 whole year at Blush Midtown Greenville Salon! This year has flown by, and I’ve learned more, grown more, and gotten to do things I never would’ve pictured myself doing, including making my own hair extensions, which still feels a little crazy to say. So blessed to work with such a supportive team especially Greenville Hairstylist (don’t let the last pic deceive you we love each other I swear)🤍🤍🤍

we love a crisp new install🤭🤭

K tips are getting their redemption arc over here 🤍

I recently took an advanced pearl bond certification class with & and i genuinely learned SO much about safer + healthier k tip installations. *this is not a promotion just a girl who loved that she learned*

The star of the show for this method is that we use italian keratin, which is the highest quality + strongest keratin available. because of that, we can create tiny “pearl bonds” instead of those long rice grain bonds you usually see (which usually end look like like noodles)👏

K-tips get a bad reputation because the issue lies with the installation rather than the actual method:
• Too close to the scalp
• Too much extension hair for the natural density
• Low quality keratin
• Over twisting the bonds

When installed correctly, they should feel lightweight, comfortable, blend seamlessly, and most importantly… keep the integrity of your natural hair intact. Coming from a girl with fine hair who has suffered from hair loss and tried every extension method on the market this is everything✨

Another thing I’ve learned is how to install them more efficiently + safely, prioritizing comfort. The end result = full, customizable, undetectable hair that moves naturally and feels amazing.

With proper installation + at home maintenance, these can last 3-4 months before needing to be reinstalled 🤍

I am so excited to keep creating transformations with it🤭

A little summer refresh☀️🍯🫶🏼💫
