Created with the health of your scalp and hair as the main priority - comfortable, seamless, and tailored specifically to you.
the real difference
IBE® was created with the health of the guest's scalp and hair as its main priority. They created a unique track that focuses on flexibility and equal weight distribution - which is durable and easily maintained due to this continuous track. We believe that minimal points of contact equal maximum points of damage.
Unlike other traditional beaded weft methods, with IBE® there is no contact of a bead with the scalp at any time. Because of that, as well as our focus on proper tension, IBE® is a much more comfortable extension experience for guests. Our focus is on the precision of stitching and beadwork, which allows for a longer time in between move ups.
Every extension journey begins with a relaxed, no-pressure consultation. We talk about your hair goals, examine your natural hair, and design a plan that protects your integrity first.
Book Your Consultationthe truth about extensions
Most people are never shown the difference between extension methods - and the cheapest option usually costs the most in the long run. Here is what to look for before anyone touches your hair.
Hand-tied wefts are stitched in - never glued, taped, or heat-bonded. Tape-ins and glue-ins tug on the hair as it grows out, and keratin bonds often require harsh remover that snaps the hair off with the extension. Hand-tied wefts move with your natural hair and are removed and reinstalled entirely, so your hair keeps its integrity.
“Invisible bead” has become a buzzword, and some stylists advertise it without ever completing IBE® certification. Authentic IBE® means documented, hands-on training in the patented flip-up method - bead placement, tension, and stitching you simply cannot copy from a photo. Ask to see your stylist's certificate; a real IBE® specialist will be proud to show you.
Budget hair and heavy, poorly placed tracks cause breakage, tension spots, and thinning - and many guests come to me after an extension method has damaged their hair. Quality installation and extensions protect your natural hair while it grows. An investment done right the first time costs less than repairing the damage later.
the original flip up
Invisible Bead Extensions® is known as the “Original Flip Up” for good reason. It is the first Patented extension method to show a bead-less flip up. They were the first to truly research and develop a method which put the safety of the client's hair and scalp first. They were the first to be transparent with grow outs, showing the world what guest's extensions look like at 6, 10, 16, and 26 weeks! With nothing to hide!
Many methods have tried to copy the IBE® flip up. However, attention to detail is unmatched while an emphasis on proper tension and placement is not found in any other extension training system. Authenticity is never questioned because IBE® was created to solve the problems with other methods and training systems, not to just copy a photo.
IBE® is applied without glue, heat, or tape. Wefts are stitched into a row of beads that wrap around the head in a horseshoe shape - the safest method because nothing adhesive touches your hair, helping keep your hair in its natural fall.
Other beaded methods over-direct your hair, pulling it to one side, causing pinkness and creating tension spots on your scalp. IBE® keeps your hair in the same direction it naturally grows for maximum comfort throughout your wear.
Each extension weft is hand painted and custom coloured for the most natural looking results. The quantity and placement of each row is determined specifically for your needs. You are one of a kind - your application should be too!
No sweat! You can maintain your active lifestyle and achieve the most luxurious ponytails, beautiful top knots, and braids. Wear various hairstyles with peace of mind, without exposing any beads or attachment points.
