Along with being the market leader in 100% human hair extensions, Hairdreams is also a tech innovator. How do these two things go together you may ask? If you’ve ever thought about getting bonded extensions, you’re probably thinking two things. 1: OMG – it will take forever to get them applied, and 2: I don’t want glue in my hair. Let’s talk about the Hairdreams Laserbeamer System. This high-tech innovation applies 5, count them 5 bonds at one time. That’s a full head of bonded extensions in less than 45 minutes. The connection points are attached with a crystal polymer bond…we like to say the bond ‘hugs your hair’. That means no glue, just gorgeous long locks you’ll love. One could say it’s a hair dream come true!

Millions have seen it on TikTok and can’t get enough of it! Hairdreams, the leading human hair extensions expert has developed SECRETS - a new, innovative method to make hair invisibly longer and fuller. Thanks to a new Proprietary ‘3D-Imprint’ manufacturing technology, the extra, new hair appears to grow directly from the scalp resulting in an instant push-up effect and a perfectly, natural fall!
SECRETS are tape extensions, which are small adhesive strips where high-quality human hair is attached to. They blend easily and invisibly integrate into your own hair. They actually disappear into your own hair upon application! Using tape extensions is becoming increasingly popular because it is fast, uncomplicated and also very gentle on the hair and scalp. The SECRETS tapes are densely packed with real hair and have more hair than other leading brands to instantly create a "push-up effect". They look so discreet and natural-looking that no one would ever believe that it is not one’s own, real hair. Thus, the secret remains between the client and the stylist!
SECRETS Invisible Tape Extensions are available in hair lengths of 12”, 16” and soon 20”. Combined with QUIKKIES, Hairdreams Original Tape Extensions, they can achieve fullness and length for the perfect “mermaid effect.” The line offers a compact range of fashionable and natural hair colors, including the very popular Root Shadows - two-toned colored hair strands with a balayage effect that gradually lighten from dark roots to lighter ends.
What’s more? The SECRETS can be worn for up to 8 weeks, then re-used up to 2 times. And the hair quality is guaranteed for up to 3 wears. SECRETS tape extensions are now available at Hairdreams Partner Salons. Check out Hairdreams’ TikTok account for more: https://www.tiktok.com/@hairdreamsusa

When I got my first set of extensions years ago, I was given a few of the products to take home and help me care for the hair, and I have been hooked ever since. The Hairdreams care line is purposely designed for long hair and human hair extensions - from the basics of shampoo and conditioner to styling products, to protect the health of both your real hair and the extensions and make them both shiny and last as long as possible.
To start, I am OBSESSED with the Hairfluid and *literally* never leave home without it.
Hairdreams has a few different shampoo formulas - I use the Protein Shampoo as my go-to regular, as my natural hair has always been pretty damaged and with breakage, despite my best efforts.
The classic Beauty Shampoo improves the hair's structure, adds shine, and is made for normal hair. And my favorite, the protein shampoo This nourishing shampoo is made for dry and more damaged hair and is made with Pro Vitamin B5 to strengthen and nourish the hair from within. And the third in the line, the Volume Shampoo is best for fine hair that needs strengthening and extra oomph, without weighing it down.
Hair extensions should not be washed and shampooed every day, and for washing my extensions, I usually work in a "front to back" method. After starting with clean hair, my first wash after 1-2 days will usually be just the very front - the pieces of my natural hair that frame my face, which tend to get greasy first. Then at the next wash, I will tie back the extensions and move back to washing most of the natural hair on the crown of my hair (the "top layer" of hair) along my part. And then finally, as needed, I will wash my full extensions usually once or twice a week. My only exception is if I am swimming a lot, in which I will shampoo my hair to wash out the ocean or chlorine on a daily basis.
Hairdreams' conditioner, Regeneration Care, is one product that I just love. I use this as my regular conditioner and will also put some into my dry hair to sleep when I'm going to be washing it the next day for some extra deep conditioning. I will also rub a small amount into my dry hair before swimming to get it a layer of protection from the pool or ocean.
I spray The Double Action Conditioner into my wet hair when I get out of the shower, and love this extra conditioner so much that I couldn't wait and had to use some of the bottle before taking these photos! This leave-in spray care with a special 2-phase effect. The intensive active care ingredients of the 1st phase penetrate deep into the hair to help nourish and moisturize. Phase 2 makes the hair easy to comb, and imparts a shiny and smooth finish without weighing down the hair.
The mini BRUSH! The hairdreams brush has a bit of a following for being the best brush for both brushing out wet hair and softening curls perfectly. While I l have a couple of the fullsize brushes at home, I am obsessed with this miniature version - it is in my purse everywhere I go and especially when we are shooting. When I'm traveling, I often won't even pack a full brush, and just use this mini for both regular brushing and on-the-go touch ups.
One of my favorite things about Hairdreams extensions compared to other kinds I have tried is that
Obsessed.
Have you been wanting more length or volume, but don't want to make a long term commitment? Tape-in extension may be the perfect solution for you. Here, blogger Vanilla Plum tells us about her experience with tape ins and what she learned from interviewing Hairdreams Creative Director, Erin Hayden about the dos and don'ts of tape in extensions:
After years of struggling with my fine hair type and feeling self-conscious about my natural hair lacking that certain je ne sais quoi that some lucky ladies are born with, I started to use extensions and I never looked back.
My journey started with those hair scrunchies that make you look like you have a real top bun, then I graduated to tape-ins for years, and then moved on to a more permanent option with my nanos, which you can read about here.
Just for safe measure, I even tried Halo extensions for a month while I was on an extensions break. Let me tell you, I definitely have my favorites, but each application style has their advantages and drawbacks.
Though I think my low price tag strategies (like halos and hair pieces) are great to see if you like wearing extensions, but once you know you like them, I’d rather help save you time and money narrowing down what kind of extensions are best for you and your locks.
Tape-ins are great when you’re ready for a commitment that grows out with your next haircut, but like to change up your look frequently. Tape in hair extensions have an easy removal process that can be cut, chopped, and colored with whatever look you want. They can also be reused.
I asked hair extension expert and Creative Director of Hairdreams USA, Erin Hayden, to explain the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to tape-ins so you can make the best choice for achieving your best hair look.
Tape-in extensions are similar to a clip-in, but instead of clipping them in, there’s adhesive. Two pieces are sandwiched and surround your natural hair.
In the extension world, we say semi-permanent because you don’t have to take them out to shampoo, but they do need to be moved up every 6-8 weeks.
Yes, but we always suggest you do color services before the extensions are applied. If you’re going to color your own hair, this should also be done prior to application.
Lots of clients think this is really easy to do, and it’s a common mistake. As a hairdresser who does extensions for a living, I would never apply my own extensions. You need to be very precise with the placement to not stress your own hair.
Incorrect placement could cause breakage as your hair grows out and that makes extensions uncomfortable to wear. Extension applications should only be done by a properly trained stylist. You want to make sure you’re getting a natural look and keep your own hair safe.
It’s a medical grade tape that’s wafer-thin and hypoallergenic. It won’t cause any irritation or allergic reactions. Tape-ins are also very flexible, making them comfortable to wear.
That’s a good question. Pretty much any hair type can wear tape-ins, but it ultimately depends on the look you’re going for, and if tape-ins can give you that look. It has to be the right texture to blend with your natural hair correctly. Any hair type will work, ultra-fine, fine or thick hair.
We safely attach extensions to the same amount of weight as your natural hair, but you shouldn’t wear them longer than suggested. If you have fine hair, leaving extensions in too long could stress natural hair.
Yes, of course! You can place them wherever needed for volume, a pop of color or to frame your face. Tape-ins are very versatile.
No, the removal is just as important as the application and needs to be done by a trained professional. In fact, most damage happens at an improper removal. You should always have a trained stylist remove your extensions.
Typically 4 to 8 weeks. We usually suggest that you get each set repositioned twice for a total of three wears.
Every stylist is going to have their own application charge – similar to a haircut. It will differ depending on their location and experience. To get tape-in extensions you’ll pay an application fee and the cost of the hair.
The price of the extensions will vary with the volume of hair and the length of the hair used and the stylist’s application charge. So unfortunately, it’s difficult for me to give you an exact price. It could range anywhere from $250 upwards to a couple of thousand dollars depending on what you want. The price difference between face framing and the whole head is huge.
This is something my clients ask me all the time. Clients will tell me their budget ahead of time, then I review my menu of service and show them what that will give them. Most of the time, if a client is on a fixed budget, we can usually give them a thickening service where we spot thicken where they want their hair to have more fullness. And, this also gives them the appearance of having more length. Always have a consultation with your stylist about your budget and the look you want.
At first, tape-ins may appear to be less expensive because the application doesn’t involve any tools. But, the maintenance fees for having them moved up starts to add up. If you account for the application fees, it could be higher in price than getting more permanent bonded extensions.
It’s fairly quick and on average the entire application takes about 30 to 40 minutes
Yes, but I always suggest a lukewarm or cooler temperature hair rinse to close down the cuticle of your own hair.
Yes, especially with Hairdreams tape-ins because it’s such high quality hair. You can use a flat or curling iron just don’t put the tool on the tape.
Yes, and yes. We actually make a brush designed specifically for extensions. When you wash and blow dry your hair with extensions, it will take a little longer. But, your hairstyle is going to last longer. So, in the long run it really is lower maintenance.
Yes, you should always use a heat protectant every time you use a hot tool, just to be safe. You want to protect your own hair and your extension hair because Hairdreams are made of 100% human hair.
You should always look into how the brand you’re selecting is sourced. This is something a lot of clients don’t even ask. I would always ask your stylist and check out the company’s website. Of course, Hairdreams is always 100% ethically sourced.
The main difference between brands is going to be the hair quality. Hairdreams offers multiple qualities and all of them are the best feeling hair I’ve ever felt out of any extensions. Honestly, our extensions are healthier than my client’s natural hair. Our manufacturing process is amazing. Hairdreams hair is hand sorted using a magnifying glass and tweezers. The health, quality and color is unsurpassed. I hear stylists complaining that other brands don’t have enough dimensional color. That’s usually a sign that someone is wearing cheaper extensions. I always tell my clients that with hair extensions, you get what you pay for.
Just fill out the form here and we’ll connect you with a salon near you, or head here for more details about our tape extensions.
Hair extensions come in many forms and varieties. From bonded extensions to wefts/tracks, hand-tied hair and tapes, I’ve found that many clients can become overwhelmed with the choices available today. From my 15+ years of experience working with all kinds of hair extensions, the easiest hair extension transition for many who use clip-in extensions is wearing tape-in extensions. It’s easy to apply and remove, and in general, easy to maintain.
I am often asked if tape extensions are bad for your hair. Let me tell you a little bit more about tape extensions in general so you get a better general understanding of how they work, how they are applied and how to care for them.
Q: What are tape-in extensions?
A: Tape-in extensions are hair extensions that are gently taped to your own natural hair. With Hairdreams’ classic Quikkies tapes, we use two short strips of hair tapes about an inch wide with adhesive on the back (like a tape) and pair them together with your hair to create added fullness or length. Your own natural hair is actually placed in between the tapes to firmly secure its placement.
There are traditional, classic types of tapes and Hairdreams’ new tape extension technology called SECRETS - a new, innovative method to make hair invisibly longer and fuller. It can even be used to add volume on the top of the head. Thanks to a new Proprietary ‘3D-Imprint’ manufacturing technology, the extra, new hair appears to grow directly from the scalp resulting in luscious volume for an instant push-up effect and a perfectly, natural fall!
Q: How long do my tape-in extensions last?
A: It all depends on how fast your hair grows and what length your natural hair is before applying the tapes. Tape extensions can last 6 months or more, but need to be removed and reapplied (moved up) anywhere from 4 to 8 weeks regularly. At that time, you will need to go back to your stylist to perform the service.
Q: How do I style tape-in extensions?
A: You can style tape extensions any way you’d like! They can be air-dried resulting in a natural beach wave, blow-dried, or straightened and curled with hot tools! Anything goes with Hairdreams Tape-ins since Hairdreams only uses the highest quality hair available in the world!
Q: Who can wear tape-in extensions?
A: Anyone who wants thicker or longer hair can wear tape extensions! From adding a few tapes to create bangs or more style to hair to adding more volume and length, tapes are easy to maintain and can look very natural. For those new to wearing semi-permanent extensions, many of my clients find that tapes are an easy transition to wearing hair extensions full-time.
Q: How do I choose the best tape extensions for me?
A: Hair quality is a huge factor in choosing the best tape extensions for your hair type. I’ve seen so many different types of hair quality (mostly bad quality) and the price range is extensive as well. I recommend going with high quality tape-ins that look great throughout the wear. Tapes that that look fresh and new even after multiple uses. Learn more about Hairdreams's legendary hair quality and why I chose to work with this brand.
Q: Are tape extensions bad for my hair?
A: Like any hair extension system, damage can occur when you don’t take care of your hair properly. Tape-in extensions should be applied by a salon professional. They will not harm your natural hair if applied by a professional and if you take proper care of your hair with the recommended hair care products and daily maintenance (brushing hair, putting hair back when sleeping or swimming, drying tapes after washing hair, etc.).
Q: How do I care for and maintain my tape extensions?
A: Home care and maintenance is very easy! These are just a few basic rules:

If you’ve ever wondered what that best hair extension brand is out there, ask your stylist. They know the real deal. With so many hair extension brands in the market, it’s an overflowing sea of information that you can literally drown in. But, what rises to the top is the most coveted hair extension brand in the world recognized for its legendary hair quality – Hairdreams hair extensions.
Hairdreams is the luxury hair extension brand that top hair stylists worldwide use exclusively to create beautiful, long, luxurious hair styles. Hairdreams hair extensions are recognized worldwide as the first and foremost leading authority on the world’s finest hair extension craftsmanship, which 100% guarantees its superior grade and quality. What makes it so different? Hairdreams’ unsurpassed hair quality involves a one-of-a-kind, multi-step process that includes an elaborate procurement method, strand-by-strand hand-selection and an extensive refining process.
Legendary Quality
Hairdreams only works with the best and highest-grade, healthy 100% human hair, which is procured all over the world in adherence with strict ethical principles. Intricate and meticulous hair selection and refinement processes are used to produce human hair lengthening and thickening products with the brilliant natural shine, elasticity and bounce, characterizing real Hairdreams hair. With its “7-Star” hair, Hairdreams’ most exquisite quality, every single hair strand is selected and sorted by hand according to stringent quality criteria. It can be re-used and re-bonded for multiple uses.
Hairdreams hair is not stick straight due to its luxurious, healthy hair quality, unlike most brands which are partially or totally devoid of cuticle causing the hair to lay straight and deteriorate at an alarming rate because of little or no cuticle protection. These heavy processes allow producers to start with low grade damaged hair, remove some of the cuticle (and still can be called REMY) or all of the cuticle and deliver to the customer or hair stylist a cheap product with cheaper results.
Scientifically Proven Hairdreams Quality
An analysis at the University of Aachen, Germany proved the impressive and unparalleled quality of Hairdreams hair.
A comparison with a lower-priced competitor’s hair revealed that Hairdreams hair consists of 100% healthy “normal” hair with fully closed cuticle layers, which stands out for its perfect shine and natural elasticity. The competition’s hair on the other hand is mostly composed of extremely damaged hair with damaged or even exposed surfaces as a result of chemical treatments.
This is of great significance in terms of the quality of hair lengthening since hair without a healthy surface has little shine and elasticity and tends to become matted easily.

There were a few exciting occasions coming up that I felt I needed a change of hair look. I took a long break from extensions before going back to them in November, last year. I used to get them all the time! So much, that I didn’t feel as confident without them nor did I want to go anywhere eventful without having on extensions. Overtime, not only did my fine hair demand the break, but I also wanted to learn to embrace my natural hair. And I did. I took about 5 years off, aside from wearing clips ons here and there.
I really feel those years I took off, I learned to love and embrace my own hair. My hair also got strong and healthy. Fast forward to now, I was ready for a change. Plus, I missed having Shakira hair! My real hair is on the fine side and the length is currently a little below my shoulders. It has been taking a little longer than usual for it to grow long, which is why I missed having the long length. I was also getting over clip ons. The timing was right and was ready to put extensions on again!
In November I tested out the tape ins, which I liked! I wanted to have long hair for my birthday. The only downside was that they didn’t last very long, maybe 6 weeks. I wanted to try another method. One day I was browsing IG and I came across Hairdreams. Their page made me fall all over again with hair extensions! Their quality of hair, work, and knowledge was obvious. I also have heard amazing things about them through hair stylists. All their beautiful hair content was calling my name and had me dreaming about them for weeks until I decided to connect with them. Originally, I wanted to get them for my wedding day but after having a phone call with someone from their team, I was recommended I should try them out first before my big day! This made sense because I didn’t’ want to try something new and get creative without knowing how I would love/style it, especially for a big event in my life. Although, I was almost certain, I would love! And so I did.
I went to the Hairdreams headquarters studio in Torrance, CA. Everyone was so friendly, professional, full of passion for their work, and made me feel so comfortable. The two amazing hair stylists that worked their magic on me were Erin and Rose. Both were so cool and fun!
This was what I got done: Laserbeamer Nano. Color blend. 16 inches.
I got them done in mid Feb. It’s been 2 months and they’re going strong! Not a single extension has come off. I got to have them on for my bridal shower, my sister’s baby shower, and a couple other events. I’ve been feeling so good in them. I love waking up with beautiful long and voluminous hair. What’s great about this style of hair extensions and hair quality is that it feels like my own hair. The way I got them placed, I’m able to do ponytails and updos. I would totally get them again for another time and special occasion rather it’s Summer, the holidays, vacation, or just because! Another great thing I want to note, they have their own special hair brush, shampoo, and conditioner. This has helped keep my hair soft, hydrated, and untangled. It’s also made my hair last this long. I was told they can last up to 3-4 months, depending on how good you take care of them. I’ll be going on to my 3rd month but it feels more like they’re 6 weeks old! I’ll see how I go the next month, but so far so good.
If you’re looking to getting hair extensions or have been thinking about it and want to get it right, I would recommend Hairdreams! Hands down.
Hairdreams Quality is legendary…
They exclusively use the best and highest-grade 100% raw human hair, which they procure from selected places around the world in adherence to strict ethical guidelines. Their Hair Quality is guaranteed throughout the entire wearing period so you can be sure from the first day until the last day it’s worn, it will retain its luster and shine.
So how did I manage to still have great hair days even while in lockdown in California for about a year now? Well, again, Hairdreams is to thank. Something I’ll never forget is my grandma in NY texting me about 3 months into lockdown restrictions, asking what I’m doing about not being able to get my hair done etc (she was struggling as well with not having someone to style her hair which also is something that makes her feel good). My response surprised her as it does for many others…I wasn’t worried about getting my hair done because thanks to Hairdreams I only ever get my hair done twice a year.
Yup, you heard me right…these long locks last me about 6 months, and I have been able to stick to this cadence for the last few years now. Everyone seems so surprised to hear this, but unlike a lot of other extensions, Hairdreams are top-tier quality and with the right maintenance and care, it can last you a very long time. My stylist uses the Laserbeamer Nano to apply my extensions and I barely even have to come in for maintenance.|
So while everyone was feeling stir crazy needing a trim or color etc, my Hairdreams lasted me the first 6 months of quarantine and when California opened up for a short time in the summer I was able to swap out my extensions which I’ve been wearing ever since, even during the latest round of lockdowns.
While how my hair looks is far from a top priority during the pandemic, it’s something that gives me a little bit of confidence and happiness while sitting at home social-distancing. It feels nice to look in the mirror and feel like myself even when the world around us feels so out of control.
Hairdreams helps make my everyday beauty routine easy. Instant, perfect hair each and every day without constant salon maintenance is something that has been extremely handy this past year. While the future is uncertain when it comes to an end to this pandemic, the one thing that I can be certain of is that my Hairdreams hair will last me while waiting for the time it’s safe for salons to reopen again.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created a whole new reality for the entire world. Many have survived the mysterious virus making a full recovery. There is also a new emerging group called “long-haulers” who are now battling other lingering health issues including hair loss.
“There’s been at least a 25 percent increase in people coming in with hair loss, and that’s from a place of already being busy dealing with hair disorders,” According to Dr. Dendy Engelman, a dermatologist at Manhattan Dermatology & Cosmetic Surgery. “It’s not yet documented on major medical sites as a symptom, but patients show me their positive test results.”
An impaired immune system, increased levels of stress and highly emotional factors from the virus can also trigger hair loss. Actress, Alyssa Milano recently documented her hair loss revelation on her social media as she brushed through her wet hair and picked out chunks of strands from her brush. Many have also posted to social media sharing their experience with hair loss caused by the novel coronavirus.
“Patients have literally come in with bags of hair looking like a full head of hair was in the bag,” says Dr. Michele S. Green, a dermatologist at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York City. “They all have similar stories. That they were extremely sick with high fevers and have never been that sick in their entire lives.”
The shock of losing one’s hair is definitely traumatic. It can take a devastating emotional toll resulting in low self-esteem, anxiety and possible depression. There are remedies to help deal with hair loss including taking nutritional supplements to help promote hair growth. Many women also resort to wigs or wefts to help remedy their hair situation, but there are other more natural-looking, permanent hair replacement options that can change women’s lives.
Hairdreams® offers SECRETS tape extensions and MicroLines, an integrated hair thickening system for the most natural-looking, immediate results.
SECRETS tape extensions are a new, unique innovation from Hairdreams® preferred by stylists to help fill in thinning hair. SECRETS are invisible tape extensions where high-quality human hair is attached to and discreetly integrates into one’s own hair once applied. Unlike other tape extensions, the hair looks like it literally is growing out of the adhesive strips. In reality, SECRETS are tape extensions that feature an innovative proprietary ‘3D-Imprint’ manufacturing technology which makes the hair look like it’s growing right out of the scalp. And at the same time creating a "push-up effect" as it literally helps lift the hair at the roots creating a volumizing, perfectly natural-looking effect on the crown.
Thanks to the SECRETS even customers with very fine and thinning hair can now achieve perfect results! The SECRETS tape extensions are densely packed with real hair and have up to 2x more hair than conventional tape extensions. They look so natural that no one would ever believe that it is not one’s own, real hair. And they’re practically invisible and so discreet, that you are able to apply these much higher on the head compared to any other extensions on the market.
Specifically created for severe hair loss and thinning hair, Hairdreams® features its patented MicroLines hair thickening system, which is hand-crafted, customized hair toppers that are placed on the top of the head. It is hand-crafted with a micro-fine net that has a high quality, premium 100% real hair knotting technique and is invisibly integrated into one‘s own hair. Unlike with standard hair pieces, wefts and wigs, the added Hairdreams® hair will become "one” with one’s own natural hair. MicroLines are worn permanently and allow for a normal, active lifestyle which may include sports, such as swimming or just letting hair blow in the wind while riding in a convertible. Plus, they feel just like one’s own natural hair. These unique features have made MicroLines the best hair extensions for hair thickening (on top of the head) in the world.
If you or someone you know is dealing with COVID-19 related hair loss, we can create a customized hair thickening solution for you. Find a salon now to get started!
]]>I’m going to break down exactly what my experience was like — even during COVID-19!
I made an appointment at my local Hairdreams Salon here in Torrance, CA. The team was super accommodating and let me know what I could expect at my appointment. I had a quick consultation and let them know exactly what I was looking for, including length, type of extensions, my past experience with hair extensions (if any), etc.
When I arrived to the salon, I was welcomed by the Hairdreams team. I was so relieved to see that they were following all COVID-19 protocols and taking every precaution to assure both myself and the stylists were safe. They had already brought out a few packs of hair extensions so they could match it with my actual hair. I was AMAZED by how spot-on the color matching was….and we hadn’t even gotten started yet!
The type of hair extensions I chose was the Laserbeamer NANO Hair Extensions. This method gives you invisible, undetectable hair for added length and fullness. The best part? These hair extensions do NOT damage your hair — they actually help protect from other environmental factors! The Nano extension bonds literally wrap around my natural hair, “hugging” it and actually assisting in my hair’s natural growth process. Plus, it feels and looks like my very own hair.
Now here’s the part you won’t believe….application takes UNDER ONE HOUR! How fabulous is that? Like sign me up right now, right?!
As someone who has had hair extensions before, and has experienced sitting in the salon chair for over 6 hours, this was a welcomed change, and one of the main reasons why I cannot recommend Hairdreams enough!
Now that I have this gorgeous hair, let’s talk about how I keep it looking so gorgeous! One thing I love about Hairdreams extensions is that they don’t take forever to dry. Having 20” of hair is a LOT of hair to dry, but with the right products (I actually use the Hairdreams Shampoo, Conditioner, and PH & Shine Spray, and with a little bit of blow-drying, I can be ready in 30-45 minutes. TOTAL WIN!!
I recommend choosing the Hairdreams Laserbeamer NANO Hair Extensions if you’re an active babe like me, who likes to work out and wear a ponytail. I put my hair up a few times a week, and these extensions are undetectable (and I can’t even feel them). This is super important to me, because I have spent so many months wearing different types/brands of extensions and desperately trying to hide them!
While Hairdreams Hair Extensions add to my physical experience, the reason I choose to wear hair extensions is because the way they make me FEEL. I feel confident. I feel empowered. I feel excited to experiment and play with my hair. These 100% human hair extensions are soft, silky, and blend seamlessly with my own hair, giving me total confidence — even on those “bad hair days”…
Knowing that the hair chosen for Hairdreams extensions goes through an extensive quality inspection process gives me the peace of mind that choosing Hairdreams is the right choice.
I’d love to connect with those ladies interested in hair extensions, whether you’d dabbled with them or not, so connect with me on IG @MackenzieDudzik and let’s chat all things hair!

There are numerous types of hair extensions out there. From clip-ins to wefts and tapes to halos, how does one choose the right system? Most people take into account their lifestyle, maintenance and how natural their hair looks and feels. The truth is, we don’t want to make it obvious that we are actually wearing extensions, right?
Fashion and Beauty blogger, The Vanilla Plum, writes about her recent experience with a halo system in her latest blog. Her verdict? Read more to find out…]]>Michaell Johnson is one of the top Beauty/ Fashion/ Lifestyle bloggers in Los Angeles. She has been wearing Hairdreams® hair extensions for the past few years and it has completely changed her life. In her latest blog, she interviews Erin Hayden, Creative Director for HaridreamsUSA and reveals the truth regarding some of the most burning questions about hair extensions.
“I chopped off my long tresses at 12 years old because I thought my older sisters were trés cute with their short hair. It didn’t take many hours to regret that impulsive act. Especially since my hair has never gotten to that length again without looking heat damaged. So when I first heard about hair extensions, I was awestruck!
With extensions, I could recreate the lost, long hair of my youth! I started researching extensions on the internet. Finding high quality hair extensions is a little bit tricky when there are so many companies.
There are fake hair companies, 100% remy human hair extensions companies, and more application styles than I can count (clip-in hair extensions, tape-in extensions, hand-tied extensions, curly hair extensions, and hair pieces for women and human hair wigs for women). It’s a bit overwhelming. Plus, note to self: Googling anything related to health and beauty can lead to terrifying answers.
When I finally found my magic solution, Hairdreams®…”
Read more on her blog… ]]>More and more women are suffering from hair loss and thinning hair. An aging population, hormonal changes and stress are some factors contributing to this increase. It could also be heredity, from poor health conditions and a weakened immune system (alopecia, recovering from cancer, thyroid issues, lack of proper nutrition, post pregnancy, menopause, etc.) or environmental factors. Forty percent of women have visible hair loss by the time they reach age 40, according to the survey by the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery. By age 60, women hair loss sufferers will be in the 80% range.*
What Happens When Women Start Losing Their Hair
Hair loss and thinning hair in women is generally more noticeable on the front and the top of the scalp. However, hair loss and thinning hair is not just a physical condition that can happen at any age. It can take a devastating emotional toll as well. Culturally, beautiful, full long hair is generally associated with youth, beauty, sensuality and attractiveness. For centuries, women have historically been painted or photographed with gorgeous, voluminous, long locks from Greek Goddesses to royalty and high profile celebrities.
For many women, hair loss and thinning hair creates an inferiority complex which results in low self-esteem, anxiety and possible depression. Many women turn to wigs or wefts to help remedy their hair situation, but there are other more natural-looking, permanent hair replacement options that can change women’s lives.
Solutions for Hair Loss and Thinning Hair
There are numerous hair volumizing options for women. From wigs to hair pieces to different types of hair extensions, women have choices today to help remedy their thinning hair condition. Using tape extensions is becoming increasingly popular because it is fast, uncomplicated and also very gentle on the hair and scalp.
SECRETS tapes are a new, unique innovation from Hairdreams® preferred by stylists to help fill in thinning hair. SECRETS are invisible tape extensions where high-quality human hair is attached to and discreetly integrates into one’s own hair once applied. Unlike other tape extensions, the hair looks like it literally is growing out of the adhesive strips. In reality, SECRETS are tape extensions that feature an innovative injection technology which has been exclusively developed by Hairdreams®. Luxurious Hairdreams® human hair strands are injected into the tape creating the appearance of additional hair growing directly from the scalp and at the same time creating a "push-up effect", which provides fuller, more natural-looking, voluminous hair. It literally helps lift the hair at the roots creating a volumizing effect on the crown.
Thanks to the SECRETS even customers with very fine and thinning hair can now achieve perfect results! The SECRETS tapes are densely packed with real hair and have up to 2x more hair than conventional tape extensions. They look so natural that no one would ever believe that it is not one’s own, real hair.
The Ultimate Solution for Severe Hair Loss and Extremely Thinning Hair
Specifically created for severe hair loss and thinning hair, Hairdreams® features its patented MicroLines hair thickening system, which is hand-crafted, customized hair toppers that are placed on the top of the head.

Summer is here and it’s the perfect time to show off your goddess locks. Top beauty/lifestyle influencer, Amy Seder, is obsessed with Hairdreams® and has been wearing Hairdreams® hair extensions for the past few years.
“Growing my hair was something that I desperately wanted, but I never could attain on my own. The last time my hair grew past my shoulders, I was 14 years old, I chopped it off once, and it never came back in again. Some people are lucky and can grow their hair thick and long and luxuriously all on their own - but I am not one of those women.” Until… she discovered Hairdreams®.

The hair extensions, worth $800,000 dollars destined for the U.S market, are believed to be from ‟allegedly forced human rights abuses of child labor and imprisonment camps” in Xinjiang province in northwest China.
According to human rights organizations, these ‟imprisonment camps” currently hold more than 1 million members of the Muslim Uyghur minority who are being held captive. The U.S authorities claim that the confiscated goods consist of hair extensions and wefts, which were produced by imprisoned Uyghurs in forced labor for export.
This latest incident reveals how important it is to find out where and how the hair extensions one purchases are actually obtained. Unlike the apparel industry, where many manufacturers have now committed to adhering to ethical standards in terms of working conditions and sustainability in the countries of origin, the hair extension industry has not yet standardized its procurement practices.
Several years ago, Hairdreams® pioneered and self-imposed its own strict code of ethics, which states that all real human hair procured is exclusively from ethically safe sources. These standards go far beyond what is currently practiced in the industry. It includes numerous strict guidelines such as obtaining hair only from voluntary donors and hair produced under fair, sustainable working conditions with adequate compensation.
In addition to violating human labor rights, there are many other reasons why Hairdreams® does not and will not in the future, source its hair from China. Chinese hair, which is of Asian type, does not meet the strict quality requirements of Hairdreams® hair. Hairdreams® only uses the most healthy untreated European type hair. European type hair is naturally much lighter in color and finer than Asian type hair. Asian type hair can come from many countries which surprisingly includes Russia. This hair is commonly mistaken as a European type when in fact mostly comes from Eastern Russia which is all Asian type hair.
Asian type hair is naturally black, thick and is very bristly because it naturally has a larger circumference. In order to make Asian type hair usable for consumers in the western world, it has to be dramatically lightened and chemically-treated. This damages the hair texture and other important properties – compromising its natural shine and bounce that gets lost in the processing of the hair. Therefore, the hair becomes unsuitable for use as Hairdreams® hair extensions. In addition, it is virtually impossible to monitor and guarantee humane working conditions in China. This is another reason why Hairdreams® processes hair exclusively in European countries.
For years, Hairdreams‘® clients, stylists and salon partners have continually appreciated and raved about Hairdreams‘ consistency in terms of quality and ethics, which has elevated the brand’s exceptional reputation of legendary hair quality with lasting success.

What hair stylists and Hairdreams® clients have to say
Maintaining high ethical standards is not only important to Hairdreams® employees, but is also appreciated by hair stylist partners and clients. Here are a few comments:
Hairdreams® Partner Stylists:
Hair Artist Sonya Dove, Los Angeles USA: "Hairdreams® has the best hair quality in the industry. I spent 2 years, as the model, testing and trying so many hair extension brands. When I learned how Hairdreams® sourced and processed their hair extensions, I was sold and have been both a client and partner ever since."
Hair Artist Di Pofi, Rome Italy: "Quality, sustainability and a good conscience are extremely important for me and my clients. I have been purchasing my hair extensions exclusively from Hairdreams® for many years, because I know that the same values apply there."
Extension artist Robert Steiner, Linz Austria: "When choosing products for my salon, I pay close attention to their origin. At Hairdreams® I know that I can rely not only on the quality of the products, but also on the fact that they come from ethically sound sources".
Hair specialist Edurne, Pamplona Spain: "I think it's great when manufacturers like Hairdreams® voluntarily commit to ethical principles. This creates trust and gives me a good feeling when I beautify my clients with Hairdreams® hair".
Hairdreams® Clients:
Jillian W. USA: "I am obsessed with Hairdreams® hair quality! That's a given. But the fact that Hairdreams® procures the hair ethically makes me feel good about what I am purchasing and wearing. I love what the company stands for."
Alexandra P. Germany: "I think it's good that the trend when buying food, clothing or even cars is more and more towards sustainability and ethics. This must of course also apply to beauty products. If hair extensions come from imprisonment camps, then that's not ok at all. I think it's good that Hairdreams® is sending out a clear signal/ message with its code of honor!"

My new favorite obsession is extensions and I wanted to give you the in's and out of why I love Hairdreams so much. So without a due lets get into it!
- Ease Of Putting Them In -
They use Laserbeamer Nano Automatic Bonded Extensions – applies 5 strands of hair extensions automatically with a push of a button! Literally finished in as little as 45 minutes!!! So no waiting around for 6 hours doing single extensions.
They also have 4 other methods including:-
· FreeStyle Bonded Extensions
· New Secrets Invisible Tape Extensions
· Quikkies Premium Tape Extensions
· MicroLines Thickening Systems
So whatever tickles your fancy there is an option for you.
- They Blend Like Your Own Hair -
My absolute favorite thing about them is that they look exactly like you hair and blend seamlessly! I have never had more people say "OMG your hair is incredible" and when I responded with "it's not real" everyone was SHOOK. I have had plenty of extensions in my day, but these take the cake. I also love mine extra long (mermaid style as I like to call it) which can be very difficult to blend, but somehow the silky softness of this hair just blends in perfectly with your own that you would never know the difference.
- They Don't Take 1,000,000 Years To Dry! -
My biggest pet peeve with extensions is how long they take to dry after you wash them, I would literally need to schedule out 2 hours minimum to wash and dry my hair and ain't nobody got time for that!
Hairdreams hair drys pretty much like normal hair so with a quick blow dry I can be done within 30-45 mins which is a hell of a lot better than 2 hours!
- Styling Your Hair In An Updo Is Doable -
Because these extensions end up being individuals and flat to your head you can easily out your hair up or do braids without the worry of seeing the bonds. Of course, you have to be careful where you part your hair, but I like to do boxer braids and make them chunky, and I had no problem covering the bonds!
