Free cut (cleaning cut) for bonding extensions - why this appointment is so important

If you wear bonded extensions, a clean cut is essential after 6 to 8 weeks. Many customers underestimate this appointment, but it determines how beautiful, durable and healthy your hair extensions remain.

In this article, we explain why it is advisable to prune, how it is done and what problems you can avoid.

What is a cleaning cut / free cut anyway?

Every person loses an average of around 100 hairs per day. This is normal Natural hair loss.
However, when wearing extensions, these loose hairs get caught in the bonding and can collect over time to form small tangles, loops or even tangles.

Each individual bond is checked during the free cut and:

• the hair that has grown out is cut out cleanly
• matted areas are loosened
• Loops are corrected if necessary
• Bondings that have fallen out can be reinserted
• the entire seat is checked
• You receive feedback on your previous care and the condition of your hair

This keeps your hair extensions clean, easy to comb and natural-looking. It also makes it much easier to remove the extensions at the end of the wearing period, as there is less tangling and matting.

Depending on the amount of hair, the appointment usually only takes about 30-60 minutes.

• the bondings sit cleaner and smoother
• less tugging when combing
