Nano hair extensions have earned their place in salons for good reason — they allow stylists to deliver seamless volume and length even for clients with ultra-fine hair. Inspired by the micro ring technique, these extensions use a keratin bond attached to a small metal loop, creating a discreet, glue-free installation that blends effortlessly with natural strands.
Work with the smallest and most discreet bonds available.
Their tiny size makes them virtually undetectable when placed correctly. Each bond is small enough to disappear into your client’s natural hair and comes in a variety of shades, allowing for precise colour matching at the root. This gives you the flexibility to customise the application and achieve a natural look every time.
Ideal for clients with thin or delicate hair
Clients with fine or fragile hair often hesitate to try extensions. Nano hair extensions give you a way to offer them a safe and lightweight alternative. The small size of each ring puts less tension on the roots to reduce the risk of stress or breakage. They’re especially effective when working with clients whose hair can’t support larger or heavier bonds.
Avoid glue — reduce risk.
Nano rings don’t require any adhesives, which means less residue, less mess, and reduced potential for long-term damage. You still get a secure hold, but without the added concern of glue near the scalp, they’re a good option for clients with previous sensitivity to bonded extensions.
Expect long wear with the right installation and care.
When you install nano hair extensions properly and walk your client through aftercare, they’ll enjoy a style that lasts. These extensions can hold up for months when combined with routine maintenance and quality products. Encourage clients to come in for refits every 4 to 6 weeks to prevent slippage and maintain a flawless finish.
Some reminders
While nano hair extensions work well for many, they may slip more easily on ultra-smooth or oily hair. Assess your client’s hair texture before application and adjust your approach as needed. A different method may hold better for some people, or you may need to use specific prep techniques to improve grip and retention.
