great salon in Nj for hair extensions

Hmm, i've been asking around the heralopecia
forums about this ultratress 2 method ..but
getting no where ;)

do you know of any good places online that
have more in-depth info? ;) ...meaning, not the
usual "it's hair progression ..not hair extension!"
stuff :P

lol :D

(not that i'll be getting them anytime soon -
just really curious)

thanks :)

Hmm, alright - thanks tho :)

I have usedon clients and myself worn Ultratress 2 hair extensions. They are made by the hair replacement company Onrite. Their women's divsion of hair replacement products is called Gemtress.

They are very thin strips of polyurthane with hair attached to them. Kind of like a weft, but the top is the poly material. To apply, your hair is sandwiched in between two pieces of the strips and a brush on adhesive is use to hold it all together.

I think it is an ok method, but not great. It can be messy to put in since the adhesive sometimes wants to ooze out of the strips and to remove you have to put an oil remover on the hair which also gets messy. Then, if you really want to reuse the hair, the stylist would have to scrub all the oil off of the hair strips before it can be put back on.

It's time consuming to apply.

One client that I had put them on had fine hair, and after 10 weeks of wear, the tension of the wefts cause her to get a bald spot on the side of her head.

I don't offer this method anymore.

I live in central NJ, and I researched hair extensions, and salons. I went to Vitto Mazza salon and day Spa in Woodbridge, NJ last week, and got extensions. They use the newest method. It is called Ultress 2.I now have shoulder length hair, and am lovin' it. Abit pricey.but we get what we pay for.

Wow! How much did you pay, if you don't mind my asking? I was thinking of getting extensions because I HATE my short hair. But I'm a bit hesitant after reading some of the posts in the hair extensions forum. I just think I need to do a lot of research before I make a decision. How are your extensions holding up? Is the hair quality good? Are you experiencing any problems?

Anyway, it's so funny you posted this today because I was going to ask about a good hair extension salon in central NJ!
