Compatibility and preparation

EHE LIGHT™ is a UV bonding system designed to work with the full range of professional extension formats: tape-in, keratin, wefts and loose strands, with no compromise on bond quality.

The formats

Tape-in, keratin or wefts:
the choice is yours

Tape-in extensions

Cut 2 mm below the attachment point of the existing tape. Apply the EHE LIGHT™ UV adhesive to the cut top edge of the extension strands. The UV bond creates a join at the root without the rigid structure of the traditional sandwich system. Ideal for clients with fine hair who want a lighter, more flexible bond.

Bond each tape weft individually, strand by strand, for the most natural look and the best comfort when worn.

Keratin extensions

Keratin-tip extensions can be bonded with the EHE LIGHT™ system. Simply cut 2 mm from the existing keratin tip, place a drop of professional UV adhesive and follow the standard application protocol. The UV bond is made cold, with no heated iron.

Perfect for reusing high-quality extension hair over several wear cycles.

Hair wefts: cut into individual strands

Sewn-in hair wefts can be turned into individual bonding strands using the advanced cutting technique described below. Once cut, each strand is applied strand by strand with the EHE LIGHT™ protocol, for a fully customisable application that adapts precisely to the density and distribution of each client’s natural hair.

This technique gives you the economy of buying wefts with the precision of strand-by-strand UV application.

Advanced technique

How to turn a weft
into individual strands

One of the most useful, and often under-used, techniques in professional UV hair extension application is turning wefted hair into individual loose strands before bonding. This one skill widens your creative range considerably and gives you full control over density and distribution.

Standard natural hair wefts, even machine-sewn ones, are made with a reinforced top seam where the strands are anchored. This seam gives the weft its structural integrity during manufacture, but it becomes an obstacle when you want to apply individual strands with the EHE LIGHT™ bonding system.

The solution is simple: by carefully cutting the top seam of the weft, you free the individual strands from their structure and turn them into loose strands with no pre-formed tip, exactly the format you need for strand-by-strand bonding with EHE LIGHT™.

01

Locate the seam

Lay the weft flat on a clean, stable surface. Locate the seam of the weft, the reinforced top edge the strands hang from. The seam is generally 3 to 5 mm wide and stands out clearly as a denser, stiffer band at the top of the weft.

02

Cut 2 mm below the seam

Using sharp professional scissors, make a clean horizontal cut about 2 mm below the lower edge of the seam. You are cutting through the base of the seam, not into the hair itself, to free the strands from their thread anchor. Work slowly, in small cuts, to stay accurate and avoid shortening the extension strands unnecessarily.

03

Free the strands

Once the seam section has been removed, you have a set of individual strands or small groups with a clean, cut top edge in place of a pre-formed tip. These strands are now in ideal condition for EHE LIGHT™ application: the cut surface creates a flat, even bonding face for the UV adhesive.

04

Calibrate the weight per strand

Separate the freed strands into individual bonding units. The ideal strand weight for EHE LIGHT™ application is around 0.5 to 1 g per strand, which corresponds to a weft section about 0.5 to 1 cm wide. Strands that are too heavy put unnecessary tension on the natural anchor section; strands that are too fine may not give enough visual density per attachment point.

05

Apply and cure

Apply the EHE LIGHT™ UV adhesive to the cut top edge of the extension strand, the surface created by cutting the seam. Place this adhesive-coated edge flat against the root of the natural hair section, continue with the standard integration and curing protocol, then cure with the light within 1 cm for 6 to 8 seconds on top and 6 to 8 seconds underneath. The result is a strand-by-strand bond very close to a factory-made individual strand extension.

Quick reference: weft conversion

Weft extensions
Cut 2 mm below the seam. Use the strands.
Tape-in extensions
Cut 2 mm below the adhesive. Use as an individual strip.
Keratin extensions
Cut 2 mm below the keratin. Use as they are.
Loose hair
No further preparation. Use the strands.

“Turning a weft into individual strands gives you complete creative control over density, distribution and blending, for a fraction of the cost of factory-made individual strands.”

Premium hair

Remy natural hair extensions
for your UV service

The EHE LIGHT™ system delivers a refined bond, but the quality of the final result also depends on the quality of the extension hair you use. EHE LIGHT™ offers premium Remy human hair that hair professionals can rely on for even colour, beautiful texture and good wear over time.

All the hair is 100% Remy human hair, cuticles aligned, ethically sourced. This means the cuticle scales of each strand run in the same direction along the whole length, which limits tangling, matting and premature breakdown, and gives the silky movement and natural shine that set premium extension hair apart from lower-quality hair.

Our weft extensions are available in a wide range of lengths, weights and shades designed to blend with every type and shade of natural hair. Whether your client needs a little extra volume or a complete change of length, the EHE LIGHT™ Remy hair range gives you the raw material for a result that blends with the client’s own hair.
