Hair Extensions

Gone are the days of waiting for your hair to grow

Hair Extensions provide luscious length for shorter hair while creating volume for thinner hair that is already long. Extensions are also a great way to add pops of highlights, lowlights and colour without adding lightening chemicals to your real hair. The possibilities are endless with Hair Extensions and they provide confidence boosting results that last.

Here at Epic Hair Designs Brisbane, we use quality Showpony Professional Hair Extensions. Showpony is at the forefront of hair and fashion and their extensions are used and loved by celebrities and fashion icons including Roxy Jacenko and Camilla Akerberg.

How hair extensions can be used

When coloured hair extensions are placed, they mimic foils without permanently changing or damaging the colour of your hair. The colour will be selected to blend or contrast with your natural hair to either add dimension or create a seamless blend.

Create longer hair

Hair extensions are ideal and commonly used for adding much-needed length to your hair. Why bother waiting for your hair to grow when you can have long hair instantly!

Create thicker hair

If you have long hair but lack thickness, hair extensions are the answer for you. Depending on your hair, half a head of extensions will create the thickness and dimension giving you a whole new look from roots to tips.

Add colour without chemicals

Like the idea of adding colour but you don’t want anything permanent? Rather than lightening or colouring your own hair, opt for hair extensions.

Thought you had to wait for your hair to grow long? Time to think again.

A+ RemMy Human Hair

At Epic, we ensure our stylists under-go continuous Showpony Extension training on live models to ensure the best possible outcome for our clients. Showpony representatives provide us with training to ensure extensions are undetectable, natural-looking and comfortable. Your stylist will educate you on how to best manage and maintain your extensions to ensure optimal long-term results.

Why tape extensions?

Epic Hair Designs recommends tape extensions

Traditional tape hair extensions typically sit in the hair for 6 to 8 weeks before needing to be adjusted. Hair extensions are something you have to live with all day every day, so they have to be comfortable. Tape hair extensions feel comfortable in your hair because they lay flat against your head. The transparent tapes make it very difficult to see where the hair extensions are applied, providing a natural and seamless look.

  • Tape extensions last longer than any other extension.
  • They are easier to maintain and require fewer visits to the hair salon.
  • More comfortable during the day and throughout sleep.
  • The most undetectable extensions that do less damage than bead extensions.

Colour and length explained

We have a large range of colours and Lengths

Want to add a little bit of colour to increase the vibrancy of your hair? Are you hoping to make a statement with bold new colour? Whatever your colour aspirations are, we have Showpony Professional hair extensions available in a wide range of colours at our Brisbane hair salons.

Extensions come in a range of lengths including 14″, 20″ and 24″ inch and your stylist will work with you to choose the best length to blend with your natural hair.  20″ is the most popular and what most people need to get their desired look.

 

 

 

Maintenance

TAKING CARE OF YOUR EXTENSIONS

Hair Extensions look amazing and require proper home care to keep them in good condition between visits. We stock a range of shampoo and conditioner as well as detangling hairbrushes to keep your Extensions looking their best. Depending on how quickly your hair grows, maintenance appointments should be made every 6 to 8 weeks with one of our salons to avoid any matting that may occur as your hair grows out.

Tape hair extensions are usually reusable. However, this is dependent on the hair quality. Usually, it is possible to re-tape them up to three times, but we recommend that you re-visit our salon for a maintenance appointment for a professional and great looking result. Generally, traditional tape hair extensions are easier to style than many other hair extensions, even when straightening or curling is involved. This is because these extensions are applied to the head so naturally.

FAQ's for extensions

We are much more than just hairdressing.

An average full head would be 4 packets of Premium Slimline Tape Extensions.

Showpony Hair Extensions are available in 14”, 20” and 24” lengths, and a variety of block, blended and ombre shades.

Yes, pop into the salon with clean hair and no products used. Alternatively, your stylist can book you in for a wash and blowdry prior to the application to ensure beautiful results.

Showpony Professional has specifically designed the width our Premium Slimline Tape Extensions and Skin Weft Tape Extensions to safely distribute the additional weight of the extension across the natural hair or “Foundation Section” without causing stress or damage.

We do not recommend the colouring of Showpony Hair Extensions, or the use of toning shampoo and or conditioners.

We do not recommend perming Showpony Hair Extensions, as they have already undergone a lengthy chemical process.

Showpony Slimline Tape Extensions require 72 hours to create a bond with one another, so we ask that you do not allow your hair to get wet, do any strenuous exercise or wash your hair during this time.

We do not recommend the use of Keratin products either before application or on Showpony Hair Extensions, as either can cause slippage of the tape, or cause brittleness in the hair itself. Keratin can also create a build-up on the hair shaft, inhibiting the adhesion of the tape to the natural hair.

Whilst wearing Showpony Hair Extensions, we recommend avoiding products containing citrus extracts, oils including Moroccan or Argan oils, silicones or their derivatives, protein or keratin-based products and products containing a high alcohol content. This includes any medicated or toning shampoos and tanning products. Using these products may cause tape slippage or discolouration to your Hair Extensions. Some chemical based sunscreens may also cause discolouration of your Hair Extensions and may void your Showpony warranty.

This is often due to the use of high heats on your Hair Extensions. Hot Showers, Hair Dryers on maximum temperature & Hot Irons being run over the upper portion of the Hair Extensions will speed up the natural deterioration of the adhesive. If you notice the adhesive becoming sticky during wear, use Deep Cleansing Shampoo to remove and Showpony Residue Remover to clean during your regular reapplication.

It is a blend of 20% European and 80% Indian, Indian for strength and durability, European for a soft, silky texture.

Remy A+ means all the cuticles are intact and aligned downward in the same direction as your natural hair. This means that you are always brushing in the direction of the cuticle therefore the hair is less likely to get tangled or matted.
