What is a Lace Closure?

By GOODYARD HAIR

On 7th July 2016

Lace Closures Explained

Lace Closures are a fairly popular item for women who care about their hair. The flexibility and versatility of closures makes them applicable for just about all types of hair, whether natural, scanty, permed or the less thrilling receding hairline. Our natural hair doesn’t always blend well with foreign textures; for instance Brazilian or Indian, and as a result, some weaves tend to reveal breakage, bald spots and thinned edges: closures can be used effectively to prevent such occurrences. We answer the question, What is a Lace Closure?

If you know what to look for in Lace closures, you will have an easier time at the beauty salon. Here are some facts and tips about closures you should know about:

A lot of women tend to confuse frontals with lace closures. Closures are not frontals; however, frontals can be considered closures. Lace frontals are basically a hairpiece which mimics a person’s hairline, covering it up from ear to ear.
Closures come in different forms and sizes so not every purchase would work for you. Look for the size that works perfectly for your scalp so that it fits well. Laced based closures are preferable because they lay flatter and are more comfortable.
Never use glue for your closure; it’s a common mistake among women and it could lead to hair loss. Sew the closure in to avoid spoiling it or losing hair.
Closures cover the crown and though a frontal can be sewn or clipped in the back, the best method for putting it in place is by bonding. The bonding process involves liquid or tape adhesive whereby the adhesive is applied sparingly to the lace mesh and then carefully secured on the front part of the hairline.
When wearing a weave, keep the area at the front hairline and crown well blended.
Sewn-in or bonded weaves usually require lace closures to cover the top area where the track hair or weaving hair gets sewn/bonded down. This process often creates an area called the “horseshoe” where some hair gets left out. Closures can be used to cover up that area and add some decorative style to enhance the weave.
Always make sure you tint the materials used on your closure so that it matches your scalp. When you properly tint the closure it makes it easier to part, pull back or twist your hair in any style you want without drawing attention to the closure.
You may use liquid, tape adhesives or weaving thread to apply closures: that will create a natural-looking head of weave. Just about everyone will be convinced it’s your natural hair.
In order to get the best results, always get your closure fitted by a professional.

Apart from lace closures, several other types of closures exist. They include the following:

Silk Base Closures：

Monofilament closure:

It’s essentially a mesh which happens to be the most durable type of closure and is applied in a single-strand method, hence the name mono-filament. It is perfect for stiffer hairstyles with full bangs because it maintains the original shape without much effort. The mesh creates a natural-looking transparent base which happens to be transparent and makes the scalp look better. Skin-polyurethane closure: comes in a thin, flexible silicone base which tends to create the illusion of a natural scalp. It is not durable though, and it doesn’t let air in so it would not be ideal in hotter climates.

Combination/Hybrid closure:

Uses the longevity of monofilament and combines it with lace so as to create a natural-looking hairline. Hybrid closures come in high density especially in the portion with monofilaments and the lace when combined with flesh-tone silk creates a more natural look.

Invisible Part Closure:

This type of closure involves wefted hair sewn into a mesh base. It usually comes in an oblong shape and can be fitted in at an angle, where the depth of part can be manipulated without including the hairline.

How to Treat Women Hair Loss

By GOODYARD HAIR

On 29th June 2016

In Hair Technique and Design

Hair loss in women at any age and for any reason is discouraging, frustrating, and sometimes even devastating. The most common type of hair loss in women is called female pattern hair loss, or FPHL. Many factors are to blame for hair loss including medical conditions, genetics, some medications, harsh scalp or hair treatments, and hormonal changes. Methods to treat this condition in women are effective in some cases, but in others medical and surgical interventions may be needed to restore hair growth.

Determining the Cause of Your Hair Loss

1See your doctor to rule out a medical condition. Several medical conditions can either temporarily or permanently interfere with normal hair growth and development. Some of these medical conditions include the following:^[1]

Iron deficiency anemia.^[2]
Thyroid conditions.^[3]
Deficiencies in zinc, vitamin D, and possibly the B vitamin group.^[4]
Hormonal level alterations of androgen, testosterone, and estrogen-derived hormones.^[5]

2Treat the medical condition. Medical conditions can lead to either temporary or permanent problems with hair loss.

With the help of your doctor, and possibly healthcare professionals that practice in specialty areas, treating the underlying medical condition may resolve your hair loss problem.
Your doctor will need as much information as possible about your hair loss problem, so be prepared to discuss this issue in depth. Be prepared to describe when it began, any significant life events that occurred just prior to the problem, steps you have taken to resolve it, and how much distress the hair loss is causing you.
If an underlying medical condition is discovered, specialists that may be part of your treatment may include endocrinologists, dermatologists, nutritionists, and psychiatrists.

3 Understand how your hair grows. Many of the medical conditions listed interfere with one of the three phases of hair growth.

The anagen phase is the period when your hair is actively growing. About 85% of your hair is in the anagen, or growing phase, at any given time.
The catagen phase is a short period of time, about two weeks in durations, that allows the follicle to regenerate. Hair growth is halted during the catagen phase.
The telogen phase is considered the resting phase of hair growth, and lasts for two to four months. At the end of this phase the hair falls out. Most people normally lose about 100 hairs each day due to the hair that is in the telogen phase.

4 Realize that telogen effluvium is often temporary. Many medical conditions that cause hair to move into the telogen phase can be treated.

Since your hair remains in the telogen phase for several months, your hair loss may not occur immediately after the event that triggered it. This would include physical trauma and severe emotional stressors.

5 Review your medications with your doctor. Many medications can cause temporary hair loss.

Do not alter your medications for any reason. Talk with your doctor about your concerns. If you feel a medication is causing your hair loss, your doctor may be able to help by either adjusting the dose or prescribing a similar medication to take its place.
Some medications that are known to contribute to hair loss include lithium, warfarin, heparin, and levodopa.
Drugs that are classed as beta-blockers can also cause hair loss. Examples of medications in this class include propranolol, atenolol, and metoprolol.

Can Asparagus Help Prevent Hair Loss?

By GOODYARD HAIR

On 28th June 2016

In Goodyard News

Well, there’s very little solid evidence to prove that it helps reverse hair loss, but asparagus DOES contain plenty of useful nutrients that may contribute to healthy hair growth…

Asparagus is rich in silica, described in 1939 by Nobel Prize winning chemist Adolf Butenandt as “…an important component of hair… and adequate intake (of which) is thought to prevent baldness and stimulate hair growth.”
These tasty green spears also contain iron, an often overlooked mineral in the battle against hair loss. In fact, the UK’s Cotswolds Trichology Centre cites iron deficiency as one of the most common causes of hair loss.
Asparagus tops the list of alkaline foods. Some experts put hair loss down to a diet overly rich in acidic foods, recommending alkaline foods to restore hair and promote overall well-being.
Asparagus contains lots of vitamins C and E, both of which are important for healthy hair, nails and skin.

So it’s certainly worth trying to include more asparagus in your diet. There’s no doubt it’s a nutritious food that’s good for your health in general…

…and if consuming it also improves the growth of your hair, then that’s a tremendous bonus!

Not sure what to do with asparagus?

Female Pattern Hair Loss

By GOODYARD HAIR

On 27th June 2016

In Goodyard News

The most common type of hair loss seen in women is androgenetic alopecia, also known as female pattern alopecia or baldness. This is seen as hair thinning predominantly over the top and sides of the head. It affects approximately one-third of all susceptible women, but is most commonly seen after menopause, although it may begin as early as puberty. Normal hair fall is approximately 100-125 hairs per day. Fortunately, these hairs are replaced. True hair loss occurs when lost hairs are not regrown or when the daily hair shed exceeds 125 hairs. Genetically, hair loss can come from either parents side of the family.

There are two different types of hair loss, medically known as anagen effluvium and Telogen effluvium. Anagen effluvium is generally due to internally administered medications, such as chemotherapy agents, that poison the growing hair follicle. Telogen effluvium, is due to an increased number of hair follicles entering the resting stage. The most common causes of Telogen Effluvium are:

Physical stress: surgery, illness, anemia, rapid weight change. Emotional stress: mental illness, death of a family member. Thyroid abnormalities. Medications: High doses of Vitamin A, Blood pressure and Gout medications. Hormonal causes: pregnancy, birth control pills, menopause.

When the above causes of telogen effluvium are reversed or altered you should see the return of normal hair growth.

Dietary Considerations

Hair loss may also occur due to dieting. Franchised diet programs which are designed or administered under the direction of a physician with prescribed meals, dietary supplements and vitamin ingestion have become popular. Sometimes the client is told that vitamins are a necessary part of the program to prevent hair loss associated with dieting. From a dermatologists’s standpoint, however, the vitamins cannot prevent hair loss associated with rapid, significant weight loss. Furthermore, many of these supplements are high in vitamin A which can magnify the hair loss.

Physical and Emotional Stress

Surgeries, severe illnesses and emotional stress can cause hair loss. The body simply shuts down production of hair during periods of stress since it is not necessary for survival and instead devotes its energies toward repairing vital body structures. In many cases there is a three month delay between the actual event and the onset of hair loss. Furthermore, there may be another three month delay prior to the return of noticeable hair regrowth. This then means that the total hair loss and regrowth cycle can last 6 months or possibly longer when induced by physical or emotional stress. There are some health conditions which may go undetected that can contribute to hair loss. These include anemia or low blood count and thyroid abnormalities. Both of these conditions can be detected by a simple, inexpensive blood test.

Hormonal Considerations

Hormonal changes are a common cause of female hair loss. Many women do not realize that hair loss can occur after pregnancy or following discontinuation of birth control pills. It is important to remember that the hair loss may be delayed by three months following the hormonal change and another three months will be required for new growth to be fully achieved.

Myths Related to Hair Loss

Frequent shampooing contributes to hair loss.
Hats and wigs cause hair loss.
100 strokes of the hair brush daily will create healthier hair.
Permanent hair loss is caused by perms, colors and other cosmetic treatments.
Women are expected to develop significant hair loss if they are healthy.
Shaving one’s head will cause the hair to grow back thicker.
Standing on one’s head will cause increased circulation and thereby stimulate hair growth!
Dandruff causes permanent hair loss.
There are cosmetic products that will cause the hair to grow thicker and faster.
Stress causes permanent hair loss.
Hair loss does not occur in the late teens or early twenties.
Hair loss affects only intellectuals.
There is a cure for Androgenetic Alopecia.

These are only a few of the common myths heard by physicians and other hair loss specialists on a daily basis. The American Hair Loss Council suggests that you first have your hair loss diagnosed by a competent dermatologist who sees hair loss patients on a regular basis. Once you know the diagnosis you will have a better understanding of exactly which treatment option may be best for you.

Treatment Options for Female Pattern Hair Loss

Accepting and learning to live with hair loss. Professional counseling may be of help.
Perms, color and other cosmetic options to give a fuller appearance to hair.
Medical therapy– Rogaine (topical minoxidil). Rogaine is the only FDA approved medication currently available for female pattern hair loss.
Hair Replacement Surgery. Modern surgical techniques have made transplantation for females a viable treatment option providing they are qualified candidates and have realistic expectations.
Hair Additions. Modern forms of hair additions have also made recent improvements in simulating a natural appearance. A consultation with a skilled specialist to discuss your options is advised.

Inside Corner Lashes

By GOODYARD HAIR

On 17th June 2016

In Eyelashes

Those tedious. little inside corner lashes … The bane of our existence right?! As frustrating and challenging as they are, they’re absolutely essential when it comes to creating a gorgeous shape!

Check out the difference in these two sets of volume lashes.

While the lashes look good, they stop abruptly just shy of the inside corner, creating an un-natural, unfinished look.

By finishing those inside corners you get a more natural, beautiful, finished look.

So how do you get to those pesky little lashes that are so quick to hide away once you’ve placed your tape or eye pads?

Use your fingers to gently pull the outside corners away from the nose and tape. Doing so will spread out those inside corner lashes making them more visible and easier to isolate. Pulling the skin just under the brow bone up and taping will also bring those little lashes out of hiding and make them easier to see.

Mastering the inside corners will not only make your sets look more beautiful, it will truly set you apart as a lash artist. Because they’re so tricky, and because you can still product a pretty set of lashes without covering all the inside corner lashes a lot of lash artists continue to avoid them. There are still a lot of lash artists who haven’t mastered the art of shaping, or who don’t see the need for it. Be the lash artist that goes above and beyond for your clients! Strive for fully completed sets and mastering the art of shaping. You’re sets will look SO much better and your business will thrive because of it!

Generally, the messier the ponytail looks – the better. Plus, it’s super quick and easy to achieve too. Simply scoop your hair up into a ponytail and using a large barreled curling tong on the end of your ponytail. Once cooled down, ruffle up your ponytail for a super effortless finish.

Finally, a favourite of pretty much everyone’s right now – dutch braids. These braids are everywhere right now and are so versatile, we can see why. Dutch braids can be dressed up or dressed down which we love plus they look super chic and on trend. Just like topknots, braids are perfect for giving your hair a day off and concealing that second day hair you’re trying to hide. Braids are much easier to create on dirtier hair so this hairstyle is totally made to be a second day hairstyle.

How To Blend Clip-In Luxy Hair Extensions With Thin Hair

By GOODYARD HAIR

On 16th June 2016

In Goodyard Wigs, Hair Extensions, Hair Technique and Design

If you have fine hair and are looking for some guidance on how to wear your Luxy clip-in hair extensions, you’ve come to the right place.

Sometimes, it can be a little tricky to fully hide the clips of your hair extensions. The steps we share with you in this post, however, will help you blend your extensions naturally and seamlessly!

*Important: If you are experiencing excessive hair loss or medical hair loss conditions, we strongly advise to consult with your doctor first, to discuss if wearing clip-in hair extensions is right for you.

Tip #1: Make a solid base for the wefts

In order for the weft to have something to hold on to without sliding, it is important to create a firm and thick base to which you will clip the weft. This will help secure it in place and prevent tugging on your hair. You can create this base by teasing the roots of the section to which the weft will be clipped on.

Tip #2: Find the safe zone

A very important step when clipping in your extensions is figuring out what your “safe zone” is. This is the area on your head where the clips will not be seen. Usually, for fine hair, the safe zone is anywhere below the line of your eyebrows. Draw an imaginary circle around your head from one eyebrow to another; anywhere below that circle is where your wefts are going to be clipped in.

Tip #3: Position your wefts

We all have different hair types, head sizes, shapes, etc. Therefore, although there is a general sequence in which extensions should be clipped (can be found here), there is no one right way to do it. Play around with the wefts and find what positioning works best for you. Fine-haired ladies especially need to pay attention to the top of the head, to make sure that the wefts aren’t peeking through (remember the safe zone!). Read the next tip for some positioning suggestions.

Tip #4: Choose your wefts

Sometimes, you won’t need to use all the wefts, and that’s absolutely okay. If you’re struggling to find space on your head for all the wefts, there is a good chance that you don’t need to use all of them. Figure out which sequence works with what wefts, and only use those. Here are some ideas you can try:

Tip #5: Tease your Crown

Once your extensions are clipped in, you will notice the difference right away in how much longer and thicker your hair feels (great feeling, right??). Naturally, it may be noticeable that you have more hair at the bottom than at the top of your head. To make it look more natural, it’s a great idea to tease your hair at the crown to add some volume to match the rest of your hair. This will give an overall harmonious, voluminous look.

Tip #6: Choose the Right Extensions

If you have fine hair, we recommend going with the 120g Luxy Hair extensions, as they are specifically designed for thinner hair. This set will blend in beautifully with your fine hair, give length and volume, while maintaining a very natural looking effect.

Tip #7: Layer Them

Especially if your natural hair is layered, adding layers to your Luxy Hair extensions by a professional hairstylist can make all the difference! If you decide to get them cut, we recommend having them already clipped into your hair during the haircut. It will also be very helpful for you to come up with a numbering system for the wefts, so that you know exactly where each weft is supposed to be clipped in for the future uses.

Tip #8: Style Your Extensions

Although Luxies look amazing with straight hair, wavy or curled styles look a lot more natural. Wrap your natural hair and the extensions together around a curling iron to make sure they flow into one another. Learn how to do that here, here, or here.

Give these tips a try, as they will help you blend your Luxies in with your fine hair, to achieve a seamless and natural look. If you have any tips or tricks on how to wear extensions with fine hair, please share with us below. We love sharing with you and learning from you.

Growing your hair out, especially from short hair, can take years. With hair extensions, you can have the long hair you want without the wait. For women suffering from hair loss, hair extensions can be a beacon of light. Not only can hair extensions lengthen your hair, but they also can be used to fill in balding areas and give your hair a more natural, thicker appearance.

Hair extensions are done using different methods like Braid Weaves, Mega Tips or Micro Linking / bounding. Some used as serious extensions for long keeping and some for fun and a night out! Regardless of the method or intention, always make sure your extensions are done by a professional. Although when done correctly, hair extensions are safe and won’t damage your hair or scalp, if done incorrectly, both scalp and hair damage can occur.

For Short Hair

Here are few advices by King of Hair Extension Jesse Briggs for doing Extension on shorter hair:

You can have Extension on short hair if you hair on sides are 2″ long when straight. You may bond hair in 1/4″ strands of hair to look natural. For example: Great Lengths has 25 strains per bundle and those can be cut and bonded to hair on sides in 1/4″ strands, so that’s 100 small strands to look natural per bundle.

Most heads take 5 to 7 bundles to really look natural and you may have short bob or shoulder length or mid back to waist, but if you have a very short hair then your best choice would be just above shoulder until hair grows longer.

Choose a top experience extension expert for a one-to-one consultation to be sure you feel comfortable for the investment of your new look.

The extension should last for at-least 5 months when installed correctly by an extension-stylist.

Extensions require care and maintenance and you must follow all steps and guidelines provided by your extension-stylist. Otherwise bonds become weak and hair will slip and start to shed prematurely.

You can blend colors to create a unique and natural look – For example you can blend two colors of dark brown and black “called multi blending” to make the final look natural.

Hair extensions for short hair

Women with short hair can wear hair extensions and have a natural look if they choose the best type of hair extension for short hair.

Hair extensions are the best solution if you have short hair, thin hair, or long hair and you want to transform your look in an instant.

The most important thing you want to consider is the type of hair extension you choose as well as hiring the best hair stylist. Hair stylists work magic and they will be able to apply and blend (cut) the extensions perfectly to make the hair Hair Extensions For Short Hair extensions look natural. Back in the day, 10 years ago I had very short hair and wore hair extensions. I got the beaded micro hair extensions (featured right) and at the time I thought I looked so hot. Recently, I found an old photo of me wearing those beaded extensions and it looked terrible! I chose a bad hair stylist who didn’t put enough hair extensions in and my own short hair was sticking out! You saw my short hair and then you saw the extensions. It was really bad and embarrassing-it was so obvious I had hair extensions. The entire point of hair extensions is for no one to know you’re wearing hair extensions. Micro bead/fusion/ individual micro extensions are not great options for women with short hair. They don’t blend well at all and the short hair because there are hundreds of tiny pieces and they stick out like a sore thumb with your shorter hair pieces. It looks really bad and I wouldn’t recommend micro/individual hair extensions for anyone with short hair. I gave up the micro extensions the minute I realized this was a terrible option for me. I also have thin hair, so the micro/fusion/keratin hair extension method was the worst experience of my life. I cut all my hair off after a bad color experience, this lady bleached my entire head of hair twice in one sitting and I looked like big bird-literally! LOL! So that is why I cut my hair off because it was so damaged. I wanted to wear hair extensions so I could look better and my hair could grow out. I continued on my hair extension search.

Tape In Hair Extensions Then I moved on to glue in and sew in hair extensions. These were temporary solutions which didn’t allow my hair to grow and breathe. Although it was a cheaper option I put a lot of stress on my scalp and my hair didn’t grow as fast which was the entire point of wearing hair extensions-so I could get my hair long again. At this point I just wanted to give up. I didn’t want to wear my short hair but I couldn’t find a hair extension method that worked for me. Then one day I went to the salon and they told me about tape extensions. I though it sounded really “ratchet” at first. LOL! Tape extensions, yeah right. I decided to give the tape in method a try. All the women at the salon were wearing them and had not complaints. Not to mention the hair and the cost of application was way less than the micro extensions. I got the tape in method done, using 40 pieces, and it was amazing! The application took 30 minutes and my hair stylist did an amazing cut. It looked and felt so natural. After application I had no problems. I could wash my hair, workout, and it blended really well. I went in every 3 months to get them reinstalled and my hair lasted for about a year. In that year my hair grew so much! My hair went from my chin to way past my shoulders after wearing the tape extensions. What I love about the tape extensions is that they grow out with your own hair and they don’t tangle like the micro/fusion/keratin hair extensions. This was the first time that I saw real hair growth and had a great hair extension experience. I always had a hard time wearing hair extensions with short hair until I tried the tape in method. Now that my hair has grown out I still wear my tape in extensions for volume and chemical free color. After that terrible hair extension experience and bad color job I am very careful with the chemicals I put in my hair. With the tape extensions I can add highlights and ombre without coloring my own hair. This allows to to have healthy hair that continues to grow. Clip in hair extensions are great if you just want hair extensions from time to time. But they do need to be taken in and cut by your hair stylist to look natural.
