Question: What percentage of your clients gets hair extensions for hair loss issues versus fashion? Answer: The split is approximately 50/50
Question: You have developed your own branded method (MG extensions) for applying fiber extensions. What is unique about your method in comparison to other methods available? Do you plan to patent your application method? Answer: We have a proprietary technique for working with female hair loss, for which clients visit us from all over the world. For fashion purposes, we?ve amalgamated several different methods and added our own unique adaptations to create a technique that creates a beautiful look
Question: Why do you feel that fiber extensions are superior to human hair extensions? Could you apply human hair extensions using your method if a client really preferred human hair? Answer: See above. Apart from using pliers and a metal clip (which is great fun through airport metal detectors and very uncomfortable when you lay your head on a pillow!) the only way to apply human hair is with glue.
Question: What training and education is involved for stylists doing MG extensions? Answer We work in teams of two people ? a ?lead? and an ?assist?. Team members start out as an ?assist? and then, after about 12 to 24 months, progress up to a ?lead?. ?Leads? are the ones that direct the work. Our training is very intensive and ?on the job? to allow team members to experience the bewildering array of both styles and techniques, as well as the differing types of hair loss they may encounter.
Question: What are the legal requirements in England for doing hair extensions? Answer: Sadly, there are no specific legal requirements for hair extensions over and above those for a normal hair salon.
Question: What are the minimum requirements for someone wanting hair extensions? Length of hair? Stable hair loss? Have you turned down clients for hair extensions and why? Answer: We regularly turn away clients no matter how much they want hair extensions, if we don?t think it?s going to look sensational!
For fashion work, the main reason is length of existing hair ? for the best results, the clients hair needs to be at least 4 to 6 inches long. This is because you need existing hair to conceal where the extensions are attached. For our clients with hair loss, there can be a whole range of reasons, from too little existing hair to hair loss that hasn?t ?stabilized?.
