Nano Bead Hair Extensions | Victoria, BC

Nano-bead extensions are individual strands attached to small triangular sections of your natural hair using tiny, lightweight beads. This single-strand method makes them ultra-light and flexible, so you can comfortably wear your hair in a high ponytail or any style. The triangular sections help the extensions lay flat and grow naturally with your hair, while the tiny beads—smaller than a grain of quinoa—secure each strand safely.

The cost of your extensions includes two parts: the hair itself and the installation. During your consultation, we’ll determine how many bundles you need and provide a detailed quote. Payment for the hair is required before your installation, and installation fees are charged separately. Your first installation appointment costs the same as future maintenance appointments.

Each bundle contains 20 strands, with each strand weighing 1–1.5 grams. Using bundles allows for complete customization — you can blend colours or adjust thickness for a perfect, natural look.

This depends on your hair type, length, and goals:

• 1–2 bundles: for adding volume or filling in thin spots
   
• 3–4 bundles: thinner hair, adding length
   
• 5–6 bundles: medium to thick hair, adding length or volume
   
• 7+ bundles: very thick or short hair needing maximum coverage
   

On average, most clients need 4–5 bundles for full-length, blended results.

With proper care, nano-bead extensions can last a year or more. Regular maintenance appointments, gentle brushing, limited heat styling, and quality moisturizing products all help extend their lifespan.

We recommend moving your extensions every 6–8 weeks to keep your hair healthy and prevent tangling or breakage. Fine hair types may need appointments sooner, while coarser hair may extend slightly past 8 weeks. Your first move-up appointment is usually scheduled a little earlier than you expect to assess hair growth and plan future visits.

It’s completely normal! People shed about 100 hairs a day, which can get caught in the beads. This varies by season, stress, or lifestyle. Stray hairs are removed during your next move-up appointment.

A few strands slipping out is normal — usually up to 15 strands. This happens because we use non-silicone-lined beads to protect your natural hair. Keep fallen strands in a bag for reinstalling at your next appointment. Freshly washed hair at appointments helps minimize slipping.
