Hair Fusion Directions
Fusion hair extensions are one of the most popular types of extension on the market. They are attached using a keratin bond with a waxy consistency that is wrapped around a small cluster of your natural hair to form a tight, hardened seal. This method does not use heat or glue, so it won't damage the hair, yet the extensions can still last for up to six months with the proper care. Fusion extensions are available in human hair or synthetic fibere and give give length, fullness and movement to almost all hair types. Does this Spark an idea?

3
Take a small cluster of hair from the left side of the parting using the rat-tail comb. The cluster should be approximately the same width as the fusion extensions.
-
4
Hold the natural hair cluster in one hand from underneath. Place a fusion extension strand on top of the natural hair with your other hand, positioning the keratin bond half an inch from the scalp.
-
5
Roll the keratin bond around the natural hair using your thumb and forefingers to ensure a complete seal.
-
6
Repeat this process working from left to right along the parting, attaching the fusion extensions to create the desired effect.
-
7
Create a new parting approximately an inch above the first and running parallel to it. Attach more fusion extensions along this parting in the same way. Continue in this fashion throughout the hair until the desired effect of length and fullness is achieved.
