Why your extensions need a specialist at every appointment
Extension hair isn't your hair. It has no roots feeding it, it's already been processed once, and it's attached with bonds, beads or thread that heat, lightener and scissors can damage. A stylist who doesn't work on extensions every day can undo a good install in one visit.
Some stylists do only extensions. Others do only color. At Alchemy you get both, working on the same head of hair and talking to each other.
Color
Where it goes wrong: lightener near a bond or track
Extension hair takes color differently and can't recover from over-processing. Our colorists work on extension clients every week and color your hair and the extensions to match.
Cutting
Where it goes wrong: blunt ends that show the blend
Extensions are cut into your own hair, not trimmed like it. We cut after every install and at move-ups so the line stays invisible as your hair grows.
Maintenance & removal
Where it goes wrong: rushed move-ups and removals
That's the breakage people blame on extensions. The studio that installed them maintains and removes them, and checks your natural hair each time.
Extension Techniques
Cold Fusion
Thermal Fusion
Cold fusion hair extension methods are a fantastic way to add length, volume, and style to your hair without the need for heat. Using an innovative ultrasonic tool, these extensions are attached to your natural hair using keratin bonds, ensuring a secure and discreet fit.
Thermal Fusion
Thermal Fusion
Thermal fusion hair extension methods involve attaching hair extensions to natural hair using a keratin-based bond and a specialized thermal tool. This process creates a strong bond that seamlessly integrates the extensions with your own hair, providing a natural look and feel.
IBE
Invisible Bead Extensions (IBE) offer a gentle and versatile way to add length and volume to your hair. This method involves attaching hair wefts to tiny, silicone beads that are discreetly placed along your natural hairline.
Beaded Row
Wefts are attached to a row of small beads placed along a section of your natural hair, and the weft is sewn to that row. A few rows carry all the hair, spread evenly across your head so the weight never sits in one spot. With IBE, the same beaded row is layered so the beads stay hidden, even with your hair up. At every move-up, each row is lifted back to the root and re-tightened, and the same hair goes back in.

Hair Toppers
Reclaim Your Confidence — Naturally
Designed for women experiencing thinning at the crown or part line, our human hair topper delivers seamless, undetectable coverage exactly where you need it most. Lightweight and breathable, it sits flush against your scalp for a natural look that moves and behaves just like your own hair.
Tape In
Hair Toppers
Tape in hair extension methods are like instant glam in a snap, giving you that perfect mane without breaking the bank upfront! These extensions feature thin, lightweight wefts with adhesive strips that are securely placed near the roots of your natural hair.
While initially a wallet-friendly option, it's important to keep in mind that as your hair grows, the extensions will need to be repositioned or replaced periodically, which can add up in cost over time.
