Ombré Hair Bonded Russian Hair Extensions

A micro bond keratin extension is a strand of natural hair tipped with a very small keratin capsule — approximately 3 to 4 mm in diameter. This capsule is melted using a heat clamp and fused to the natural hair in a small section. The micro bond is less visible and lighter than a standard keratin bond, making it particularly suited for fine or light-colored hair.

• 50 to 75 strands for volume on fine hair
• 100 to 125 strands for a complete transformation with added length
• 150 strands or more for thick hair or longer lengths (60-70 cm)

One pack of 25 strands from Real Russian Hair covers approximately one quarter to one third of the amount needed for a full head. A certified extension technician can assess the exact quantity needed during a consultation.

Because Russian virgin hair has an intact cuticle, Slavic keratin extensions withstand repeated washing and heat styling better than extensions made from processed hair. With proper care, they can be worn for 4 to 6 months before the first removal, then reused over 2 to 3 additional cycles after re-tipping (bond replacement). The total lifespan of a set of Russian hair strands reaches 18 to 24 months.

Micro bond keratin extensions, when applied correctly by a trained professional, do not damage natural hair. The main risk comes from bonds placed too close to the scalp or capsules that are too large, which concentrate tension at a single point. With micro bonds, the contact surface is reduced and weight per strand is distributed more diffusely. Removal performed with the correct solvent causes no pulling or breakage.

Virgin Russian hair, having not been acid-treated, accepts direct coloring. Dyeing to a darker or slightly lighter shade is possible with professional products. Bleaching is not recommended: it weakens the hair structure and can soften the keratin bond. The ombré and balayage shades available in the range cover most profiles without requiring additional coloring.

Yes — micro bonds are specifically recommended for fine hair. Their smaller size reduces weight and tension on each natural strand. Slavic hair, naturally fine (60 to 80 microns), blends seamlessly with fine European hair without a visible demarcation. It is important not to overload low-density areas.

Yes, with some precautions. Updos (ponytails, buns, braids) are compatible with keratin extensions, as long as the hair tie is not placed directly over the bonds or pulled too tight. An elastic placed too close to the junctions creates repeated tension that can accelerate strand loss. Gentle styling with metal-free elastics, placed a few centimeters from the bonds, poses no problem.

Shampoo: sulfate-free and silicone-free — silicone builds up around the bonds and weakens them.
Conditioner: mid-lengths and ends only, never at the root.
Drying: dry roots quickly after washing to prevent bond slippage.
Brushing: from ends to roots using a paddle or loop brush designed for extensions.
Sleep: loose braid or silk pillowcase to reduce friction.
Oils and serums: avoid near the bonds — they degrade the keratin.

Applying 100 to 125 micro bond keratin strands takes approximately 2 to 3 hours in a salon. The technique requires more time than wefts or tape-in extensions, but delivers the most natural movement and result on the market — each strand moves independently like a natural hair — and the best longevity per wear cycle.

Yes — this is one of the key economic advantages of virgin Russian hair. During removal, the old bonds are dissolved using a dedicated remover. The strands are then cleaned and re-tipped (new bonds fitted at the tip). This process can be repeated 2 to 3 times on the same set of Russian hair strands, significantly reducing the cost per wear over time.
