1. How much does it cost to remove bondings?
Removing bondings requires a fair amount of experience and skill. If you have no experience with extensions, you should leave the work to a professional. Depending on the salon, hairdressers charge between 1 - 4 Euros per strand for removal. If you want to have the extensions reapplied afterwards, there will be additional costs for rebonding and a cleaning cut.
2. Can you remove bondings yourself?
Generally yes – however, we advise beginners to be cautious. With the help of a friend and the right hair2heart accessories, it usually works without any problems. You will need an effective bonding remover and professional bonding pliers.
Quick Guide:
- Briefly process the connection point with the heat tool.
- Drip bonding remover onto the spot.
- "Knead" the keratin open with the bonding pliers.
- Gently pull out the extensions.
Important: Give your hair a 2-day break from elaborate styling after removal to allow it to regenerate.
3. When should bondings be removed?
As a rule, bondings must be removed after four to six months. The ideal time depends on hair growth and care. At the latest, when the connection points become visible or start to strain the natural hair too much due to growing out, it is time for removal.
4. Is the hair damaged after bondings?
With professional application and removal, bondings are absolutely harmless for healthy hair. Hair damage usually only occurs through incorrect accessories or pulling too hard. Always use a heat tool with temperature control and maintain a distance of approx. 1 cm from the scalp when applying.
Tip: Pamper your hair after removal with a rich hair2heart hair mask.
5. How do you attach bondings?
If you would like to apply new bondings after removal, please follow these steps:
- Section the hair horizontally and fix it with clips.
- Section off a strand of natural hair equal to the thickness of the extension strand.
- Apply the protective template.
- Place the extension strand so that it encloses the natural hair.
- Fuse with the heat tool for 3-5 seconds and then roll evenly.
