Thinking about transforming your look with hair extensions? It’s an exciting prospect, but it’s natural to have questions. At ICEBABE, we believe in full transparency and empowering our clients with knowledge. That’s why we’ve gathered the most frequently asked questions about our signature Ice Fusion method and answered them right here. Consider this your personal consultation with one of our master stylists.
Is Ice Fusion really safe for my natural hair?
This is the most important question, and the answer is YES, when done correctly! In fact, safety is the number one reason clients choose Ice Fusion. Here’s why it’s considered one of the safest methods on the market:
No Heat Application: We use a specialized nano gel that requires no hot tools, which helps reduce the risk of heat damage to your hair follicles.
Lightweight Bonds: The nano bonds are incredibly small and lightweight, preventing tension or pulling on your natural hair roots. This makes it exceptionally suitable for those with fine or fragile hair.
Professional Application: A certified ICEBABE technician meticulously applies each strand, ensuring perfect placement and weight distribution for zero damage.
How long will my gorgeous new hair actually last?
With proper at-home care and maintenance, your Ice Fusion extensions will look amazing for anywhere from 3 to 5 months. The exact duration depends on a few factors, like how fast your natural hair grows and your lifestyle. As your hair grows, the bonds will naturally move down, and you’ll eventually need a reapplication to keep them looking fresh and seamless.
Can I treat my extensions just like my own hair?
Absolutely! That’s one of the biggest perks. We use 100% premium human hair, so you have complete styling freedom.
Washing, Brushing, and Styling
You can wash, blow-dry, curl, and straighten your hair as usual. We recommend using sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to prolong the life of your extensions. When styling with heat, simply avoid applying direct, prolonged heat to the bonds themselves. Brushing regularly with a special extension-friendly brush will prevent tangling and keep your hair smooth.
Can I swim and work out?
Yes, you can maintain your active lifestyle! We suggest braiding your hair before swimming to prevent tangles from chlorine or salt water. It’s also a good idea to rinse your hair with fresh water immediately after your swim.
Will people be able to see the extension bonds?
Not if they are applied correctly by a professional! The Ice Fusion bonds are tiny and transparent. They lie flat against the scalp and are strategically placed to be completely hidden by your own hair. You can confidently wear your hair in a high ponytail or an elegant updo without anyone knowing your secret.
What is the removal process like? Is it difficult or damaging?
The removal process is just as safe and gentle as the application. Your stylist will carefully apply low heat with a flat iron to soften the nano bonds. Once the bonds are broken down, the extensions simply slide out without pulling, scraping, or causing unnecessary stress to your natural hair. There is absolutely no pulling, scraping, or damage involved. It is crucial, however, that removal is always done by a trained professional to protect the health of your natural hair.
