Hand-Tied & LA Weave
One of the kindest forms of hair extensions available.
At Image London, our hair extension specialists use the LA Weave and hand-tied methods to deliver natural-looking results with minimal stress to your natural hair. The LA Weave uses micro beads, hair wefts, and a thread and needle — a technique that lasts up to 10 weeks with no maintenance. After 10 weeks, the same hair can be removed and refitted, making it a cost-effective option.
With over 20 years of experience in all types of hair extensions, the Image London team provides a luxury service using the best quality hair in the UK at competitive prices.

How Hand-Tied & LA Weave Extensions Are Applied
Hand-tied extensions: Small sections of your natural hair are tied with thread, and wefts are sewn onto these sections by hand. This creates a flat, discreet base that blends seamlessly with your hair.
LA Weave: Micro beads are placed in a straight line close to the scalp. The hair weft is then sewn into the beads using a thread and needle. This method creates a strong, secure foundation that distributes weight evenly.
Both methods require regular appointments every 6–8 weeks for adjustments as your natural hair grows. We recommend gentle brushing, avoiding excessive heat, and using sulphate-free products to keep your extensions in the best condition.
How Hand-Tied & LA Weave Extensions Are Removed
Hand-tied removal: Your stylist locates the wefts and carefully cuts the thread using scissors or a seam ripper. This is a gentle process that protects your natural hair.
LA Weave removal: The micro beads are located and squeezed with specialised pliers to open them, allowing the wefts to be removed without pulling or damaging your hair.
After removal, we recommend deep conditioning treatments and regular trims to keep your natural hair healthy between extension appointments.
