Custom Hybrid Extensions
Whether you're dreaming of fuller, longer hair or looking for a gentle solution for thinning hair, hair extensions can be a beautiful way to enhance your natural hair while helping you feel more like yourself.
At G Marie Beauty Co, I understand that every hair journey is unique. Whether you're experiencing hair loss or thinning hair due to weight loss, hormonal changes, stress, illness, COVID, or other health-related concerns, you deserve a personalized approach that prioritizes both your confidence and the long-term health of your natural hair.
That's why I offer a customized hybrid hair extension experience, carefully selecting the methods that best support your hair, lifestyle, and goals. Depending on your needs, your personalized plan may include V-Light Hair Extensions, Hand-Tied Hair Extensions, or iTip Hair Extensions—or a thoughtful combination of techniques designed to create natural-looking fullness, length, and movement while helping protect the integrity of your own hair.
For guests experiencing hair loss around the hairline or areas of thinning, V-Light Hair Extensions offer a discreet solution that can beautifully fill sparse areas and restore confidence without compromising comfort or a natural appearance.
Whether your goal is to add subtle volume, create beautiful length, or simply feel more confident in your everyday life, every extension experience is designed with intention, education, and your long-term hair health in mind.
Choosing the right hair extensions can feel overwhelming, especially with so many options available. To help you feel informed and confident, I've answered some of the most frequently asked questions below.
Do hair extensions damage my natural hair?
The health of your natural hair will always be the foundation of every service I provide. Beautiful results should never come at the expense of healthy hair, which is why I carefully select extension methods that prioritize both comfort and the long-term integrity of your natural hair.
V-Light Hair Extensions are applied using a specialized **light-cured resin—not traditional glue—**creating a lightweight, discreet solution for guests experiencing hair loss or thinning hair, especially around the hairline.
For guests looking to add fullness or length, Hand-Tied Hair Extensions and iTip Hair Extensions are designed without the use of glue or tape, making them a gentle, low-maintenance option that blends beautifully with your natural hair.
One of the many benefits of these extension methods is that they fit seamlessly into your everyday routine. You'll continue using your favorite shampoo, conditioner, and professional hair care products, while enjoying fuller, healthier-looking hair with minimal disruption to your lifestyle.
My goal is to help you achieve beautiful, confidence-boosting results while protecting the health of your natural hair—both today and for years to come.
Can I curl or style v-light, hand-tied and iTip hair extensions?
V-Light, Hand-tied and iTip hair extensions can be brushed, combed, styled, and even curled like normal. Keep in mind that if you style your hair with heat, you should use a heat protectant first to protect both your natural hair and your extensions. For V-Light extensions heat should not exceed 120 degrees near the bonds. This ensures bond integrity. These types of hair extensions are very secure, so you can feel free to style it like you would your natural hair.
How long do the extensions last?
You can typically expect your Hand-Tied and iTip extension hair to last anywhere from six months to a year with proper care and maintenance. V-Light extensions require a mini fill every 3 weeks and a full fill every 6 weeks. V-Light hair extensions shed out normally as your natural hair sheds (similarly to the way lash extensions shed and need filled). I’ll tell you exactly how you should care for your extensions to get the most longevity out of them, and you can always call us with questions as well.
Full Head Hair Extension Installation
For the initial installation of your custom hybrid extensions, you can typically expect to be at the salon for three to four hours depending on the methods used to achieve your hair goals.
With proper installation, your hair extensions will be comfortable and will blend in with your natural hair seamlessly. It may take a day or so to get used to the sensation of having the extensions in, but eventually you shouldn’t even notice them.
Hair Extension Maintenance
V-Light hair extensions need to have a mini fill every 3 weeks and a full fill every 6 weeks. After the initial install you will come in for a follow-up appointment within the first seven days where you will receive complimentary blowout and mini fill if necessary. Hand-tied and iTip hair extensions need to be maintained approximately every 4 to 6 weeks. As your natural hair grows out, your extensions will drop and put more tension on your scalp. In addition, you’ll find it harder to brush and style your hair, and the extensions may be more noticeable.
Full extension maintenance involves completely taking out the extensions and then re-tying them in. This maintenance is necessary to keep your hair, scalp, color, and extensions looking and feeling good.
Mini Move Up
If you’ve just had a bit of growth and have taken good care of your extensions, you may just need your extensions to be moved up a little bit. This procedure is relatively quick and easy, and can help to extend the life of your extensions as well as keep your scalp healthy.
How Much Does Extensions Cost?
The pricing for hair extension installation does not include the cost of the hair extensions themselves. Hair extensions can range in price depending on length, quality, and the need for it to be human hair (not synthetic). For V-Light clients we will have to buy new hair every 6 weeks due to the way the hair sheds out and cannot be reused. We’ll help you to decide which type of extensions are right for you during your initial consultation, when you tell us your hair goals.
