What Are Polymer Hot Fusion Hair Extensions?

1. Avoid a bond longer than 1/2 inch.

2. You can trim the top of the tip off for a shorter bond but do not trim the sides.

3. Do not reheat and move the bond numerous times as this reduces its strength

4. When melting the bond, do not leave behind un-melted globules.

5. It is easier if you place the tip under the hair strands and then pinch between iron prongs when melting.

6. Avoid pulling, bending and conditioning the hair extensions within the first 24 hours. The bond continues to harden and reaches its maximum strength after 24 hours.

7. Avoid long term contact with styling products that contain oils and alcohols. The polymer is both oil and chemical resistant but err on the side of caution.

8. You do not need to avoid high heat hair dryers. The new polymer can withstand direct hot air on the bonds without softening.

1. Clean hair thoroughly and dry completely.
2. Place poly tip under strands to be bonded.
3. Pinch and hold closed over the poly tip a heating iron set at 170-180 deg C. until the bond is   softened enough to mold.
4. Pinch and roll from top to bottom forming bonds. Pinch hard at top and bottom.

Notes:

Alcohol based removers will work effectively in breaking down the bonds cleanly without oily residue.

Having Difficulty?

Use pliers to break the bond, saturate with your remover, wait at least 30 seconds and then peel off the strands.

Keep the hair extensions sealed in a zip lock bag and stored in a cool dry place when not in use.

The Poly Extensions will hold for 3 months minimum when applied as directed. Please review carefully.

Application temperature: For best bond time and an excellent seal melt the glue at 170-180 deg C (340-360 deg F).

Open Time: Our polymer bond has a fast open time so the bond will not burn or stick to your fingers, yet it remains rubbery long enough for you to shape your bond.

Prepare Surfaces: All surfaces must be clean, dry and free of oils and residues. For oils scalps use Isopropyl Alcohol during prep. When hair is nearly dry spray onto root areas and then finish drying the hair.

To achieve optimum bond strength:

• Hot melt glues are categorized as PSA (Pressure Sensitive Adhesives). The more pressure applied during application the stronger the bond. Give the top and bottom of the bond an extra hard pinch directly after shaping bond.
• A properly formed bond will achieve 50% of its strength after 1 minute, 75% after 1 hour and 100% after 1 day.

"obsessed with the curly"

☆☆☆☆☆

The quality of Haircompounds is second to NONE. I’ve been an extension artist for 16 years and have tried every company. With HC I see no shedding, no fading, strong shiny hair for over a year reused. I recently have become obsessed with the curly, no frizz at all. Very happy will never change vendors.

"reliable and consistent"

The website is super easy to use and the poly extensions are reliable. The hair color are always consistent too. I’ve never had any problems having them run out of stock and that’s super important to me, especially during this time.

I love the Polymer Extensions. The quality of both the hair and bonds are top notch. My clients always comment on how amazing the quality of the hair is and how satisfied they are with the results and longevity of their extensions. Shipping is always easy and customer service has been amazing. I'm so happy I decided to switch to Hair Compounds.
