FAQ
Faqs
GENERAL
Is it human hair?
ARIA extensions are 100% premium Remy human hair. Benefits to this are no matting, tangling or short hair returns.
This product can be heat styled up to 250°F/ 121°C just like regular human hair products.
How long do the extensions last?
8 to 10 weeks varying on the client’s hair growth. This is recommended to eliminate matting, frizzing and tangling, and ensures the extension is always fresh and close to the scalp. They can be reapplied up to 3 times for a total of about 6-8 months of wear; this is recommended so that the extension bond remains seamless.
Can you iron, curl or blow dry the hair?
All of the above heat processes are okay. Do not allow sit under a dryer while wearing ARIA or to isolate any of the above heat processes to the adhesive bands. Concentrated heat applied to the bands can make the adhesive tacky.
Can you colour the hair?
There are over 30 colours that can be blended to create over 500 different shades.
If you're unable to blend to create your desired shade you can deposit colour down 2 levels.
We do not recommend that you lighten the extensions. To create a more platinum blonde you can apply a toner to the colour 12N. In the process of applying colour, keep all colour away from the adhesive bands.
If you decide to deposit colour to create your desired shade, it's recommended that you wait 24 to 48 hours from the time of application to allow the adhesive band to seal firmly.
Please keep in mind, colouring the extensions voids their warranty.
What products can be used in the hair?
To maintain the quality and longevity of your ARIA extensions, we recommend using professional, sulfate-free and extension-safe haircare.
Avoid products that contain harsh sulfates, alcohols, or heavy oils at the bonds, as these can affect the integrity of the extensions and application.
Your stylist will guide you on the best products for your specific hair type and extension method to ensure optimal results.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
Can I swim, exercise or go in the sauna?
Yes ARIA extensions are designed to move with your lifestyle.
For best results:
• Tie hair in a loose braid or ponytail before swimming or exercising
• Avoid prolonged exposure to salt water or chlorine
• Rinse hair with fresh water as soon as possible after swimming
• Gently brush to prevent tangling
Saunas and steam rooms should be enjoyed in moderation, as excessive heat can soften bonds and impact longevity.
Your stylist will guide you on the best aftercare based on your extension method.
Exposing extensions to sunscreen may cause discoloration.
Can roots be retouched while extensions are in the hair?
Yes, roots can be retouched, keeping in mind to stay away from the adhesive bands.
It's recommended that roots be done 24 to 48 hours prior to application.
If roots need to be done between extension services and there is enough new growth to keep the colour off of the bands, we suggest doing a partial retouch along with the hairline.
Keep in mind, chemicals in the hair can compromise the adhesive bands.
Can I reuse them?
Yes, the suggested re-use is up to 3 additional times.
After 3 additional uses, bulk at the attachment area may be created and new hair is necessary.
Be sure to purchase Remove Solvent and adhesive bands for your re-service.
They can be reapplied up to three additional times for a total of 6 – 8 months of wear - this is recommended so that the extension bond remains seamless.
How do I remove them?
Apply Aria solvent to new hair growth and allow it to trickle down the hair shaft in between the adhesive bands.
Let it set for a moment and then separate the bands. Do not rub the adhesive strip.
We recommend creating a system to place the extensions in the order in which they were removed. This will guarantee an easy and accurate re-application.
