Zubehör für Bonding Extensions – alles für Keratinbondings

Keratin bond extensions are a tried-and-tested method of hair extensions. The individual extension strands are bonded to the client’s hair using keratin and can therefore be worn for several months. Specialised accessories for bond extensions are required to ensure that the strands are applied, removed and reused correctly.

At Global Extend, you’ll find the right accessories for the various stages of the bonding process. These include, amongst other things, heat irons, replacement keratin, keratin granules, bond removers, removal pliers, protective templates, finger protectors, bond cutters, fine-toothed combs and hair grippers. This means you’ll find the right tools for both applying new extensions and for removing and rebonding strands you’ve already been wearing.

Which accessories do you need for bonding extensions?

The accessories you need depend on the specific step in the process. The basic equipment required for applying keratin extensions includes a suitable heat iron, protective templates and, where necessary, finger protectors. The heat iron heats the keratin so that the bond can be formed and attached to the client's hair. Hair grippers and a suitable comb are also helpful for neatly sectioning the hair. If you wish to remove bond extensions later, you will need a bond remover and removal pliers. The remover spray helps to dissolve the keratin. The bond can then be broken using the pliers. If the removed hair is still in good condition, bond extensions can also be reused. For this process, known as ‘rebonding’, you will need new keratin.

Heat iron for keratin bonds:

Heat irons for bond extensions are among the most important tools when working with keratin bonds. They heat the keratin in a controlled manner, so that the material becomes soft and malleable. The bond can then be shaped around the strand of natural hair. Depending on the desired technique, keratin bonds can be applied flat or round. It is important to work precisely and to maintain sufficient distance from the scalp. Protective templates help ensure clean work at the hairline and protect the surrounding hair and the scalp from the heat. The professional application of bond extensions should be carried out by trained professionals. Correct application is crucial for a reliable hold and for avoiding unnecessary strain on the client’s own hair.

Replacement keratin and keratin granules for rebonding

Keratin bond extensions can usually be worn for around three to four months. After that, the bonds have grown out with your natural hair that the extensions should be removed. However, if the hair itself is still in good condition, it does not necessarily have to be discarded.
When re-bonding extensions, the old keratin is removed and replaced with new keratin. For this purpose, Global Extend offers both pre-formed keratin bonds and keratin granules made from Italian hard keratin. Pre-formed replacement keratin is particularly suitable if you wish to use pre-measured quantities of keratin. Keratin granules, on the other hand, offer greater flexibility, as the required amount can be measured out and shaped to suit individual needs. The keratin is available in a range of colours, so you can match it to your hair colour. Rebonding requires experience and should be carried out by a trained professional.

Removing Bonded Extensions Correctly:

To remove bonded extensions, you will need a suitable bond remover and a pair of removal pliers. The remover liquid is applied directly to the keratin bond and must be left to work for a short while. The bond is then carefully broken from several sides using the removal pliers. Once the keratin has been loosened, the extension strand can be carefully pulled out. Any remaining keratin residue can then be removed with a fine-toothed comb. When removing the extensions, you should always work strand by strand. Pulling too hard or forcibly removing a bond that is still attached can put unnecessary strain on your own hair. Anyone with no experience of removing keratin bonds should therefore have the extensions removed by a professional.

Bond cutters, protective stencils and other handy tools

Besides heat irons, there are multiple other tools that make working with bond extensions easier. A bond cutter can be used to shorten or halve keratin bonds. This is useful, for example, when particularly fine strands are needed for areas with thinner natural hair. You can also use it to correct the shape of the keratin after the rebonding process. Protective templates help with precise sectioning and protect the scalp whilst working with the heat iron. A finger protector can provide support when shaping the keratin whilst it is still hot. Hair grippers reliably keep short or sectioned hair out of the work area. This allows individual sections to be prepared neatly and the bonds to be positioned more accurately. A fine-toothed comb, in turn, is particularly useful during removal to gently remove any remaining residue from the natural hair.
