Short to Long Hair Transformations

Often times, I am asked by a new client to add length to their natural hair. And let me tell you, I am always a little shock when they share a previous stylist told them "no, you have to wait for your hair to grow" - *stares in baffled... I think in these cases, experience and technical merit is required to meet their hair goals - so eventually they come find us at Bella Li Studio.

I want to share a few amazing transformations from this year that we have completed. In some of these scenarios some have started with hair styled as short as a pixie cut (their hair length starting near 2" long) and we lengthen using either a single method or often multiple methods to acheive the aesthetic look. Methods such as k-tips, wefts, and/or v-light is decided upon each unique case with the goal to provide a natural look, feel, and convenience to meet all their needs and hair goals.

Keratin Bonds: The advantages of my itty-bitty Bella bonds covers these natural enhancement that is durable and lightweight without any extra tension on the natural hair. I like well-rounded bonds and hair extensions that are going to look good, feel good, AND aid your healthy hair journey.

Sew-Ins: Utilizing wefts, genius wefts, and/or Infinity wefts provides more coverage in less time but requires maintenance every 6-8 weeks. This method also has variations of customization such as hidden-bead or invisible bead offered at Bella Li Studio

Combline or V-Light Extensions: This revolutionary method is the true strand-by-strand method that is similar to lash extensions; 1:1 attachments. Due to natural shedding your body is metabolising and creating new strands everyday, to maintain this method - touch ups are recommended every 4-6 weeks.

A case of a client with Alopeia, a combination of Sew-In Flex Weft by Gianna G. and Keratin Bonds by Emily G. were used to create this jaw-dropping transformation for our young client. (Student, 20-25y)

Bob to Bombshell. My repeat client here has naturally high-density, hair that is already so healthy - so the goal is to keep that way while enjoying longer length for the season. This transformation was about 6 hours long, one session that she needs only 2x a year to maintain. (Marketing Director, 25-30y)

Medical adversities didn't stop her from her mermaid hair. Because wigs can be hot, itchy, and uncomfortable my client was seeking a solution after a series of unfortunate salon treatments that overlooked the integrity of her hair. A combination of keratin bonds and v-light hair extensions was used to achieve this transformation that she can enjoy. The itty-bitty Bella bonds are designed to be density matched that provide light weight and durable wear. Bonus: we created this balayage look without a drop of bleach and additional color service.

We truly have the honor of completing these transformations and seeing how it changes our client's self-reflection and changing their outlook on life. Whether it's a dramatic transformation or a small enhancment, we take great pride of each bond, stitch, and attachment. It is an extension of you, it's an extension of us. Thank you to everyone, near and far, who sees the Bella Li difference.

XOXO!
