If you love the idea of extensions but struggle with thin or sparse sides, there’s a powerful technique we use that creates fuller, natural-looking hair — especially around the face.
It’s called a hybrid installation, and it’s one of our favorite ways to give clients the hair they’ve always wanted without bulk, tension, or obvious attachment points.
What Is a Hybrid Installation — and Why Does It Work So Well?
A hybrid install combines two different types of extensions:
Wefts in the back for volume and length
Keratin bonds (K-tips) at the sides for softness and seamless blending
This combo gives you the support of wefts and the finesse of keratin bonds — especially in those delicate front areas where hair is often finer or more sparse.
Why We Use Keratin Bonds Around the Face
The sides and hairline are the first areas most women lose density. For many, wefts alone won’t blend naturally in those sections — and that’s where keratin bonds become magic:
They’re ultra-lightweight and don’t add pressure to fragile hair
We can custom place each strand where you need fullness
They blend beautifully into your natural hair, even in a ponytail
What You Get with a Hybrid Install:
✨ Fuller Hair, Especially at the FaceSay goodbye to thin sides and visible gaps — hello to a face-framing finish that looks totally natural.
✨ Soft, Undetectable ResultsNo bulk, no stiffness. Your extensions will move like your real hair — because they’re placed like your real hair.
✨ Custom Fit for Your Hair TypeThis technique is tailored to your natural density and growth patterns, not a cookie-cutter method.
✨ Styling FreedomWear your hair up, down, or half-back. No one will see a thing.
Is It Right for You?
This method is perfect if you:
Want more fullness around your face
Have thinner areas that don’t blend well with wefts
Crave natural-looking hair that doesn’t limit your style
