All About Hot Heads Extensions by Tera Rae Stephens

Since the fabulous OC hair stylist Tera Rae Stephens started her new blog, I have been reading all about the Hot Head Extensions she has been wearing + doing for her clients.

Being that I know nothing about extensions I asked her if she could write me a guest blog on them since she is a total Hot Heads Extensions fanatic.  I have to admit, they look SO natural.  I had no idea Tera was wearing extensions, I just thought her hair was that long and amazing!

Make sure to read the end offer, a juicy deal for Tiny Oranges readers that want to give these extensions a try and have flowing fabulous hair for the summer!  Here is what she wrote and some before and after photos.

Hot Heads Hair Extensions

by Tera Rae Stephens

I started doing Hot Heads extensions almost a year ago and love them for so many reasons.

From the stylist’s point of view, they are the best because they don’t cause any damage to the client’s hair.  They can be applied in about an hour, the hair is really great quality and lasts about 6 months.

As a client who wears Hot Heads myself, I love that I can’t feel the extensions in my hair.  They look super natural and people are always shocked when I tell them I am wearing them.  They are extremely easy to take care of and quite reasonably priced in comparison to other extension methods.

Here are a few of my favorite before and after pictures:

Kimmy wears Hot Heads for fullness and length…

Joanna wears Hot Heads for length…

Heather wears them for fullness and length.  Her hair is extremely damaged from another extensions method.
We are confident her hair will grow back while wearing Hot Heads as they don’t cause damage.

Amy wears Hot Heads for fullness and a little bit of length.

Julianna wears Hot Heads for length…

This is what the extensions look like in the hair.  They lay totally flat and you can barely feel them when you touch your head!

FAQ’s about Hot Heads Extensions

How long do the extensions last?

8-10 weeks depending on your hair growth.  It is recommended to keep them fresh and close to the scalp to prevent matting and tangling.  The hair can be reapplied up to 3 times so hair only needs to be replaced every 6 months.

Where does the hair come from?

Hot Heads is 100% cuticle on remy hair from India.  The extension itself is hand made in China with products from Asia, Europe and the United States.

Is it human hair?

The extensions are 100% Remy hair, meaning the cuticle is in tact and all facing the same direction.  The benefit is that there is no matting or tangling.

Can you color it?

The hair comes in 22 shades and would be ordered to match your hair color so it wouldn’t need to be!

Can you iron, curl or blow dry the hair?

Yes!  It is human hair and can be styled just as you would style your own hair!

What products can be used in the hair?

Anything that does not contain alcohol, oil or ethanol.  Heavy conditioners should not be applied at the scalp or tape tabs but rather mid shafts to ends.

What is the texture of the hair?

The hair has a slight body wave that smooths out very easily with a round brush and holds a curl well.

How much do they cost?

Between $800 and $1000 for the initial installation, depending on the length and amount of hair desired.  The cost to maintain them every 8-10 weeks is $100.
