What Are Nano Extensions and Why Consider Them For Your Hair?

Nano application extensions are more than a trend—they're a lifestyle choice for effortless beauty and ease. Whether you're looking to add volume or length or simply shake things up a bit without the commitment of dyes, these extensions are your ticket to a fabulous new you.

At Rush Salon, we're always at the forefront of the latest and most innovative hair extension technologies. That's why we're thrilled to add nano application extensions to our services — the smallest, most discreet way to enhance your hair's volume and length.

What Are Nano Application Extensions?

Nano extensions are revolutionizing the hair industry with their incredibly tiny beads, offering a seamless, virtually invisible solution for hair extensions. Unlike traditional methods, nano extensions require no heat or no glue and result in less maintenance, making them a perfect choice for active lifestyles, like those of athletes who often wear their hair up.                                       

At Rush Salon, nestled in the heart of Silverado in south Calgary, we proudly offer both braidless weave application methods, as well as the alternative method of nano extensions. Steering clear of the traditional extension methods that require manual braiding, these nano weaves stand out because they need neither braiding nor adhesive to elevate your style. It's all about enhancing your look with simplicity and ease. 

Here's how it works: Each nano extension is strategically fitted to your hair by threading it through a tiny ring. This ring is then clamped securely close to the scalp, ensuring that each extension blends perfectly with your natural hair, maintaining a flawless look and feel. Unlike other methods that can be bulky or noticeable, nano extensions offer discretion and an impeccable finish.

Our salon hair experts are not just skilled but highly trained in the nuanced art of nano extension application. With a keen eye for detail and a gentle touch, they guarantee a flawless finish every time, ensuring that your hair is nothing short of perfection.

Why Consider Nano Extensions?

Nano Application Extensions are crafted for comfort and longevity. They are ideal for anyone looking to add volume to fine hair or those seeking a chemical-free colour option. Here's how they stand out:

No Heat or Glue: Say goodbye to potential damage from heat and messy glue. The tiny beads used in the application process are designed to be kind to your hair and scalp, reducing the risk of breakage and preserving the integrity of your natural hair. 

Low Maintenance: Nano extensions offer a low-maintenance solution for those seeking to enhance their look without adding hours to their beauty routine. They're resilient through washes, workouts, and all of life's demands, requiring minimal upkeep compared to other extension types - designed to fit seamlessly into your busy life.

Perfect for Fine Hair: For individuals with fine or thin hair, adding volume can often come at the cost of hair health. Nano extensions present a solution that adds body and bounce without the tension typical of traditional extensions, making them a safe choice for delicate hair types.

Chemical-Free Colour: For those yearning for a pop of colour but hesitant about the use of dyes, nano extensions offer a non-committal alternative. They can introduce highlights or lowlights to your hairstyle, enriching your hair with colour that can be easily adjusted or removed as desired.

What Hair Types Work Best for Nano Extensions?

Each set of nano extensions is tailored to match your hair colour and preferred style, whether you're aiming for a bolder balayage look or simply enhancing your natural shade. Our salon hair experts specialize in creating the perfect match for a natural, effortless look. Here are the best candidates for nano hair extensions:
