Hair Resources: What is your favorite method to work with and why? Patricia: My favorite is Great Lengths. It is a high quality product, has a great reputation, and lasts around 6 months. It is reliable, with great product support, and customers seem to prefer it over others for the above reasons. Hair Resources: Do you work with hair loss, hair thinning (alopecia, cancer treatment, etc.) clients? If so, what method do you usually use for those types of situations? Patricia: I specialize in the above. Doing a hair extension is second nature to me. I can do it blindfolded. The real skill of the business is to work on people with difficult issues, such as alopecia, and people who have undergone cancer treatment. For these clients, I have a whole range of options such as Lace Front wigs, Non surgical hair replacement, hair integration and my own custom sequence solutions. I have my own suppliers who custom make these solutions for me. I also combine these solutions when applicable with some of my other hair extension lines, to provide the ultimate hair experience. Hair Resources: What is the price range for your hair extensions? Patricia: Price range varies according to 3 factors: technique used, amount of hair desired and the length requested. Since I offer such a wide range of products, prices start at $400 and work their way up to $6000. Hair Resources: Have you ever had anything go wrong with any hair extension client?
Patricia: I have never had anything go wrong with the extension. I have probably done over 3000 extensions myself in my life without a problem. I have had people that realized hair extensions were not for them. I have had people realize, for example, that a lace front wasn’t for them. Problem in this field is that these products are not for everyone. They require some work, either regular maintance or adjustments in life. For example, if you get a lace front wig, it feels different than what your hair is used to. There is something on top of you that you never had before. People come in and say they want it, I explain it to them in detail, but it is another thing to get use to. The same thing holds true with extensions. It is now extra hair to deal with. Longer blow dry times, and you need to brush with care, and some people cannot deal with these issues, and realize these products are not for them.
