Method for applying a weft hair extension with concealed beads

A method for applying a weft hair extension with concealed beads, the method comprising:

• separating scalp hair in at least two sections, whereby a seam forms in the scalp between the sections;
• providing a weft hair extension, the weft hair extension comprising a plurality of weft strands of hair bound together along a common strip;
• positioning the strip of the weft hair extension along the longitudinal of the seam in the scalp, such that the strip abuts the scalp hair;
• separating about half the weft strands of hair into an upper portion, and separating about half the weft strands of hair into a lower portion;
• joining the lower section of the weft strands of hair with an adjacent strand of the scalp hair, whereby the joined weft hair strands and the scalp hair strands are substantially equal in quantity;
• advancing the joined strands of hair through a locking bead;
• deforming the locking bead, whereby the weft and scalp strands of hair form a snug junction;
• joining a subsequent lower section of the weft strands of hair with a subsequent strand of the scalp hair;
• advancing the joined strands of hair through a subsequent locking bead;
• positioning the locking beads less than one inch apart;
• deforming the subsequent locking bead;
• joining the weft hair extension along the entire length of the seam formed in the scalp;
• and
• covering the locking beads and the lower section of the weft hair strands with the upper section of the weft hair strands, whereby the locking beads are substantially concealed.

• advancing the joined strands of hair through a locking bead with a weft application tool having a flexible elongated loop;
• passing the joined strands of hair through the loop of the weft application tool exposed above the locking bead;
• drawing the loop of the weft application tool through the locking bead in order to pass the joined strands of hair through the locking bead;
• deforming the locking bead, whereby the weft and scalp strands of hair form a snug junction;
• joining a subsequent lower section of the weft strands of hair with a subsequent strand of the scalp hair;
• pulling the joined strands of hair through an opening in the locking bead;
• positioning the locking beads less than one inch apart;
• deforming the subsequent locking bead;
• joining the weft hair extension along the entire length of the seam formed in the scalp;
• covering the locking beads and the lower section of the weft hair strands with the upper section of the weft hair strands, whereby the locking beads are substantially concealed;
• and
• cutting superfluous sections of the weft hair extension after application to the scalp.
