What are Genius Weft Extensions?
Genius Weft Extensions are a modern type of hair weft designed with a particularly fine and flat upper seam.
Compared with many traditional machine wefts, the attachment area creates considerably less bulk, allowing the weft to sit discreetly against the head.
The extensions can be customised according to the client's head shape, natural hair and desired result.
They can be used for both hair lengthening and hair volume.
Genius Weft vs Micro Weft – what is the difference?
Terminology within the hair extension industry is not completely standardised.
You may therefore encounter terms such as:
-
Genius Weft
-
Genius Weft Extensions
-
Micro Weft
-
Micro Weft Extensions
-
Invisible Weft
-
Flat Weft
depending on the manufacturer, salon or extension brand.
At BELLA MIDAS, our fine weft extensions are called Micro Wefts.
Clients searching online for Genius Weft Extensions are generally looking for the same key characteristics associated with modern Micro Wefts: a fine, flexible and discreet weft that creates a natural-looking result.
Benefits of BELLA MIDAS Micro Wefts
Ultra-flat construction
The fine upper edge allows the extensions to sit close to the scalp, helping the weft blend discreetly into the natural hair.
Natural-looking results
Each row can be positioned according to the client's head shape and natural hair, helping create a seamless transition between the extensions and the client's own hair.
Length and volume
Micro Wefts can be used to create a complete hair transformation or simply to add additional density and volume.
Individually customised
The required width, quantity and placement of the extensions are selected individually according to hair density, hair structure, head shape and the desired result.
Reusable
With correct home care and professional maintenance, high-quality wefts can be reused several times.
This makes Micro Wefts particularly suitable for clients looking for a long-term professional hair extension solution.
More than 54 colours
Choosing the correct colour is one of the most important parts of creating natural-looking hair extensions.
Our Micro Wefts are available in more than 54 colours.
The collection includes:
-
natural shades
-
blonde shades
-
brunette and dark shades
-
warm and cool tones
-
multidimensional blends
-
balayage colours
-
rooted shades
-
blended colour effects
Professional stylists can also combine several shades to achieve a customised colour match.
This is particularly useful for balayage and multidimensional hair colours, where using several extension shades can create an extremely natural blend.
What lengths are available?
BELLA MIDAS Micro Wefts are available as standard in:
40 cm
50 cm
60 cm
For clients looking for extra-long hair, 70 cm is also available upon request.
The ideal length and amount of hair depends on the client's natural hair, starting length and desired result.
How are Genius Weft Extensions installed?
Micro Wefts are professionally integrated into the natural hair in rows.
The exact installation technique and placement may vary depending on the client's natural hair and individual requirements.
Correct weight distribution is particularly important.
For this reason, a professional consultation should always take place before an installation.
Your stylist will assess factors including:
-
natural hair density
-
hair structure
-
current hair length
-
condition of the natural hair and scalp
-
desired extension length
-
desired volume
-
required amount of extension hair
-
suitable positioning of the wefts
Are Genius Weft Extensions suitable for fine hair?
The fine construction of modern Micro Wefts can make them an interesting option for clients with finer hair because they create less bulk at the attachment area than many traditional wefts.
However, no single extension method is suitable for every client.
Very fine or fragile natural hair may require a different extension system or a combination of methods.
A trained extension specialist should therefore always assess the natural hair before recommending a technique.
How often do Micro Wefts need to be moved up?
As the natural hair grows, the extension rows gradually move away from the scalp.
Micro Wefts are therefore generally professionally removed and repositioned approximately every 8 to 12 weeks.
The exact maintenance interval depends on the client's natural hair growth, hair structure and home-care routine.
How should Genius Weft Extensions be cared for?
Correct maintenance plays an important role in keeping hair extensions looking beautiful for as long as possible.
We recommend:
-
brushing extensions gently and regularly
-
detangling the hair before washing
-
avoiding washing the hair upside down
-
using suitable extension-friendly haircare
-
avoiding unnecessary tension on the attachment areas
-
gently drying instead of aggressively rubbing wet hair
-
wearing the hair in a loose braid while sleeping
-
never leaving extensions tied up while wet
-
using heat protection before heat styling
Clients with very light or cool blonde shades should also be aware that UV exposure, seawater, chlorine, self-tanning products and certain sunscreens can affect the colour of extension hair.
Professionally trained BELLA MIDAS partner salons
High-quality extension hair alone does not guarantee a perfect result.
Professional consultation, correct placement and expert installation are just as important.
BELLA MIDAS therefore works with professionally trained partner salons.
Our salon partners receive professional education in the relevant extension techniques and can advise clients individually on colour, length, quantity, maintenance and the most appropriate extension method.
