Protection Shields for Keratin Installation

The shield acts as an insulating barrier between the hot fusion iron and your scalp when fitting with keratin wax. It also isolates the chosen strand so neighbouring hair doesn't get caught in the melted bond.

The product is made of a special heat-resistant plastic that won't melt or warp at the fusion iron's high temperatures. The smooth surface also means wax comes off easily if you happen to spill a little during your treatment.

The shield is precisely shaped to withstand the intense heat of a keratin fusion iron at the moment of application. It shouldn't be heated unnecessarily, though, or used with ordinary straighteners for daily styling.

Yes, it's especially important for fine hair, as the heat from the iron reaches the scalp more easily with very fine strands. The shield makes sure fitting is completely safe and painless, however fine and fragile your hair is.

These shields come in a convenient standard size that suits all types of fitting, whether you're putting in a full set or just thickening the sides. There are two in the pack, so you always have a spare, or two people can work at the same time.

The shields have a discreet, often semi-transparent design, making it easy to see your natural hair and the bond through the material. The neutral colour doesn't affect the result of your extension – it's there purely for safety and precision.

This is a simple plastic tool that can't and shouldn't be exposed to chemical hair dyes or bleach. If you do get colour or toner on the shield, just rinse it off straight away in lukewarm water.

A heat-resistant plastic shield of this high quality will last for countless fittings over many years. Keep it fresh by gently picking off hardened keratin wax and wiping the surface clean after each completed extension.

As we sell many products, we have tools for a range of methods, such as tape or tape rolls for a toupee. This particular shield, however, is specially designed to make fitting heat-based keratin bonds safe.

Once your hair extension is finished, simply put the shields back in your closed tool bag for safe storage. Of course, never go to bed with tools left out in the bed, so you can sleep safely.
