Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Hair extension Bead move up + gloss.

Most clients schedule bead move ups and gloss every 6–8 weeks depending on natural hair growth rate and wear. Regular appointments prevent slippage, maintain comfort and keep extensions looking seamless. Your technician will recommend a personalised interval at consultation.

No, the gloss is formulated to enhance and blend colours rather than lighten or alter natural hair significantly. It adds shine and tones extension shades for seamless matching. We perform a consultation and strand test to ensure compatibility and desired results.

When performed by trained technicians, bead move ups with gloss are gentle and minimise damage. Correct repositioning relieves tension, while gloss products condition and protect. Proper aftercare and avoiding excessive heat ensure your natural hair remains healthy.

Typical appointments last 60–120 minutes depending on extension quantity, bead position, and gloss processing time. Small maintenance may take closer to an hour, while fuller move ups with colour glossing require more time. Your stylist will give an accurate estimate when booking.

Avoid swimming and heavy sweating for 24–48 hours after glossing to protect the treatment and bead bonds. Chlorine, salt water and heat can affect longevity. After that window, follow your stylist's care instructions and use recommended products to maintain results.

Arrive with clean, dry hair and avoid heavy styling products. Bring any extension care products you already use and photos of your desired tone. Notify us of sensitivities or recent chemical treatments so we can tailor products and timing for the best, safest outcome.
