Ideally, it is easiest to perform the treatment before the extensions are put in the hair. However, if they are in the hair, it is not a problem.

No the treatment is not permanent nor will it “grow out”. The treatment gradually and evenly washes out so there is no “line of demarcation”. This treatment does not change the inner structure of the hair, but rather creates a protein layer overlay on the cuticle which protects the hair. As the hair is protected for an extended time, the condition of the hair is improved.

Since there have not been any studies or tests on the possible effects, we recommend to air on the side of caution and not perform the service on pregnant clients. Clients should get their doctor’s approval which is up to your discretion.
