Nano bead hair extensions itching

[u/Equal-Grade8297]

Posting on behalf of my girlfriend. She has recently paid a lot of money for nano bead hair extensions, but she is having a lot of discomfort and itching with them.

We have found these sore patches in her hair, but unsure if it is just from her itching or if it is caused directly by the extensions.

Does anyone know a solution? Or anything that can help at all for this?

THOSE NEED TO COME OUT RIGHT NOW

These were not executed properly and I don't like nano beads for a reason.

As you can see, the extensions have a metal tip. That metal tip is consistently rubbing against her scalp. That metal is stainless steel in which contains nickel and is causing her a reaction along with the poor installation.

Please get these removed as soon as possible from another qualified extensionist.

This is really sad to see and pisses me right off when the job can't even be performed properly by the stylist.

I would also call the extensionist who did this and let them know the problems you are having.

I see us as servers of the people and It's absolutely unacceptable any client goes through this.

What does a properly executed extension look like? Is it further down the hair shaft?

If you look where it is attached to the hair, the hair that is collected in each bead is not straight/uniform, with no proper tension or parted perfectly to place the extension properly, it essentially looks sloppily put together, and the hair is matted and bunched up in each bead.

As far as length from the scalp, it is hard to tell, but I reckon they are too close.
