Are you curious about extensions?

You are in the right place! I have had a passion for extensions since I started in this business in 2006. I have tried every type of extension out there on my own hair, but I was craving more. More comfort, less breakage, less shedding, and versatility in styling. I stumbled upon Invisible Bead Extensions (IBE) in 2019 when it was a brand new method. I took the leap and became officially certified in 2020. That was when I realized what a game changer this method really is. Shortly after, I became an elite artist with IBE so that I could be an expert on all things extensions. Being an elite artist isn’t just mastering the install, it's about the color blend and haircut as well. When you sit in my chair, it’s all about what works best for you and never a one size fits all approach. That’s why booking a consultation is the first step in any extension journey.

What is Invisible Bead Extensions?

Invisible Bead Extensions is a method that was designed to help combat many issues that traditional extensions create. Exposed beads, breakage, bald spots, allergies, and pain are just some of the few issues that have come up for me and my clients. In my experience with wearing this method, I have found it has solved all of these problems all while being the most comfortable and most versatile for styling. My favorite part of wearing IBE? You forget they are there! 

What does Invisble Bead Extensions look like?

Your IBE install should look exactly like your hair! In general, when I'm matching a client's natural hair, I will use a combination of at least 2-3 and sometimes 4 different colors of extensions in order to create the perfect match. I also give each installation a little extra love by prepping and custom coloring each batch of extensions to create the perfect blend.
