As the founder of the Vixen & Luxe Hair Extension Collection sister brand to my salon La Villa, I am so very pleased to introduce you to the world of truly exceptional hair extensions paired with our very own Smooth Wefting System and specialised haircare range. After 19 years of pouring my heart and soul into hairdressing and starting from humble beginnings, I am ecstatic to be able to open the doors and introduce you to what I believe has been a huge missing piece of the puzzle in our industry – top-quality, 100%-cuticle-correct extensions, and effective specialty extension haircare.

What is ‘Smooth Weft’?

​

Our Smooth Weft technique has gone through rigorous patent and quality testing over the last 2 years and is an updated and technically advanced version of Micro-weaving. The Smooth Weft has a much flatter finish to the scalp than Micro-weaving due to the flat construction making it undetectable, exceptionally comfortable and suitable for all types of hair. Our Smooth Weft technique is made with a strong resin which is substantially stronger than traditional sewn wefts on the market and is proven to be stronger, a lot less shedding and there is no ‘beard’ which is the line of shorter hair at the top of a sewn weft which often causes itchiness.

Smooth Wefts can be applied in 45 minutes without the use of tape, glue, braiding or heat and we are proud to say they are 100% damage-free. We have also formulated our very own NZ made, cruelty free, plant-based haircare range ‘Bella Rose’, specifically designed for extensions and coloured hair.

​

We do things very differently at V&L. We offer salons to become licensed in our Smooth Wefting method, which involves undergoing specific training taken by one of our technicians and a full salon fit-out is included in our training programme so you are set up professionally, and the smooth running of your salon with adding in our new method is easy and straight forward.
