All You Need To Know About Aqua
Aqua hair extensions is a licensed hairstylist only brand sold nationwide. They source all their hair in ponytails or bundles which then goes through a long process, starting with bathing the hair in a nutrient-rich solution base for 12 hours to preserve the integrity of the cuticle to then lift the hair for 21 whole days. (The Industry standard is 3-5 days.)
Aqua sells five systems, each of which contains 100% human Remi hair extensions. Read below to find out more about which system is best for you and your clients’ needs.
