1. Preparation
Shampoo your client's hair with Clarifying Fusion Shampoo to remove any oil and debris from the hair and scalp. Seat the client under a dryer until hair is completely dry.
2. Sectioning
Make sure each hair section is approximately the SAME DIAMETER as the FUSION HAIR EXTENSION. We recommend that you place all fusion bonds approximately ½" from the scalp. This spacing is necessary to protect the client's scalp and any new hair growth. It is best not to apply fusion bonds on the crown area (approximately 4" diameter) so the bonds will not be visually detectible.
3. Bonding
a. Hold a strand Fusion Extension Hair and a strand of your client’s hair of approximately the same diameter. Lay the client's hair on top of Fusion Hair Extension about ½" from the scalp. Place the bottom part of the heated Fusion Iron beneath the extension (only warming the protein adhesive bond). Note: ? African American Hair needs to be closer to the scalp, perhaps ¼".
b. Grasp both strands lightly with the Fusion Iron for approximately 5 seconds until the bond softens. Next, roll the softened bond (attached to the client's hair) with your fingertip until the bond is seamless and smooth. The most important section in bonding is at the tip of the bond. Be sure that the tip is tightly bonded to the client's hair, otherwise, water and hair products can easily be forced into the bond, shortening its life.
Removing Fusion Hair Extensions
a. Do not use Lord & Cliff fusion hair remover to prevent hair tangling and breakage when removing Fusion Hair Extensions. Sometimes extended hair can become dry and matted.
b. For best results, do one Fusion Hair Extension at a time shaking the remover bottle well.
i. Apply remover on each fusion bond and massage thoroughly.
ii. Let remover sit for 5-10 minutes. The more the remover stays on the bond the easier it will be to remove. Keep in mind that the remover does not contain damaging ingredients such as alcohol or acetone.
iii. Place fusion iron directly under the bond without closing the iron for approximately 5-8 seconds and slide the bond away from the scalp.
iv. To remove any residue, apply more removers on the hair, and with the flat part of the fusion iron melt the remaining residue. (Like flat ironing the hair.)
v. Repeat step 4 if necessary until hair has no residue.
