Everything You Need To Know about V-Light Extensions

Are you ready to elevate your hair extension game? Meet V-Light, a cutting-edge application method that is changing the way we think about hair extensions. Perfectly paired with Philocaly Hair extensions, V-Light ensures your clients receive the most advanced application method available on the market. Whether you’re a stylist or a client, understanding the benefits and process of V-Light will help you make the best choice for achieving stunning, natural-looking hair.

V-Light is not a hair extension but an innovative method of application that pairs perfectly with Philocaly Hair extensions. This technique ensures that your clients enjoy the highest quality hair and the most advanced application method available.

V-Light can be used with any type of hair or hair extension. This method integrates the extension hair with natural hair using a bonding agent and a curing lamp. The process involves attaching each extension strand to a natural hair strand, making the bond nearly invisible.

Traditional single strand methods use between 0.5g to 1g of hair per strand, often leaving a visible point of attachment. V-Light, however, uses significantly less hair and has an invisible attachment point, providing a more seamless and natural look.

With proper application and maintenance, V-Light extensions can last between 5-8 weeks. This duration ensures your clients enjoy long-lasting, beautiful hair.

It depends! A full installation with V-Light is not recommended due to considerations of time, longevity, and cost. V-Light is best used as a filler method, ideal for camouflaging roots in clients with extremely fine hair or adding density to areas too fine for other extension methods.

Unfortunately, hair used in a V-Light application cannot be reused. This method is designed for single-use to maintain the quality and integrity of the hair.

Yes, you can use any hair extension method for V-Light, provided you cut off the point of attachment before installation.

Pricing varies by market, but here are some average costs in the USA:

Bangs: $200 - $300

Crown: $300 - $450

Sides of head: $300 - $450

Maintenance after 5-8 weeks:

Bangs: $100

All other sections: $250

V-Light installation takes roughly 30 minutes to 1 hour per area, depending on the amount of hair needed and the size of the head.

Maintaining V-Light extensions is simple. Clients should avoid heat at the attachment points and use sulfate-free shampoo. Additionally, attachment points should not be saturated with oils, conditioners, or alcohols.

Yes, the curing light is very safe. It uses a UVA-emitting LED light at 395nm, which is approved by the FDA for medical use and poses no risk to skin or eyes. The LED curing device also doesn’t generate much heat, ensuring a comfortable experience for clients.

V-Light is ideal for areas where other methods are too visible, such as the hairline or part line. It provides an invisible bond and a one-to-one application method. For all other areas, standard individual strand methods are recommended.

Absolutely! V-Light’s light point of attachment and one-to-one density make it safe for all hair types, including fragile hair.

Alopecia: V-Light extensions can conceal small alopecia spots by being placed around the affected area.

Postpartum Hair Loss: V-Light extensions won't damage shedding hair and will shed along with natural hair.
