The Lauren Ashtyn Process

Women around the country know that we offer the finest hair extensions available. What they might not be as familiar with is how we achieve such high quality. We are often asked about our process. Women want to know what goes into our luxurious hair extensions. We have created this page to answer that question.

Quick Answer

Are Lauren Ashtyn Hair Toppers and Wigs Real Human Hair?

Yes. Every Lauren Ashtyn topper, wig, and extension is made from 100% hand-tied European Remy human hair — never synthetic. Each strand is triple-knotted by hand to a breathable micro-mesh base, so you can wash, blow-dry, flat-iron, curl, and even color the hair exactly like your own. With proper care, the pieces can last up to three years.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of hair is used?

100% hand-tied European Remy human hair, with the cuticles intact and aligned for a natural look and long life.

How long does each piece take to make?

Up to 45 days. Each strand is triple-knotted by hand to a breathable micro-mesh base — quality that can't be rushed.

Will it look natural?

Yes. The hand-tied, multi-directional base and skin-like top part let the hair fall and move like your own.

We start with the finest hair

The process begins with the best hair available: 100% hand-tied: European human hair. This is the foundation of everything we do. We believe that great hair extensions should be made with great hair. This seems like common sense, but a lot of companies touting “luxury hair extensions” use lesser quality hair, and create a lesser quality product.

We Handcraft Our Product

After obtaining the best hair, we triple knot each strand of hair, by hand. We then attach the hair to a uniquely designed micro-mesh base, so that the product will stay put when you wear it. This entire process can take as long as 45-60 days to complete. This may sound like a long time, but we believe that true luxury cannot be rushed.

The Types of Hair We Offer

Here at The Lauren Ashtyn Collection, we make 3 basic types of clip in hair extensions, as well as a full wig option:

  • Full Volume – This is our most popular hair extension. This extension is 12-18” in length, and hits about 2 to 3 inches past the shoulders. It is attached to a 5 by 6 inch base that clips in around your entire crown. This gives you maximum coverage, and is ideal for women who are suffering from hair loss. There is also a shorter length available for those with pixie hair cuts.
  • Light Volume – Our second most popular product is a little shorter than the full volume, at 12-16”. It is attached to a 3 by 5 inch base that clips in around the roots. Our light volume root coverage extensions are perfect for women who want to add a little body to their hair, or cover up unsightly greys. There is a mini version of this one as well for pixie cuts.
  • Luxury Length – Our length extensions simply add length to your hair. We sell 10-12” and 16-18” length extensions. These extensions can also be paired with our full volume or light volume root coverage extensions, for maximum effect.
  • Wigs - For those with extensive hair loss, we offer full coverage wigs. Our luxury wigs are made with the same meticulous process as our extensions. They have the same micro-mesh, breathable base and are adjustable to fit your head size perfectly.

We make our hair extensions in a variety of colors—you would simply select the color that would look best on you. We also make our extensions in such a way that they are fully customizable with regard to color, cut and style. Taking your piece to your stylist to have it blended with your hair is a crucial part of the process.

What Our Process Means to You

What are the results of our painstaking process? For one, it ensures that our hair extensions last longer than the average—up to 3 years, in fact. It also ensures that our hair extensions look completely natural and seamless and have more bounce, shine, silkiness and smoothness. The fact that we make clip in extensions means that you can easily apply and remove your extensions: this is a fuss-free product. Our products are designed to be damage free to your own hair.

Craftsmanship

The Art Behind Every Topper, Wig & Extension

Every Lauren Ashtyn piece begins with 100% hand-tied European human hair, triple-knotted by hand to a breathable micro-mesh base over a 45-day process. That patience is why our toppers, wigs, and extensions look completely natural, feel weightless, and last up to three years—far longer than mass-produced or synthetic alternatives.

Toppers, Wigs & Extensions

Frequently Asked Questions

Are your toppers, wigs, and extensions real human hair?

Yes. Every piece is 100% hand-tied European human hair, triple-knotted by hand to a breathable micro-mesh base—so you can wash, color, and heat-style it just like your own hair.

What is the difference between a topper, a wig, and extensions?

Extensions add length and volume to hair you have; a topper clips in at the crown to cover thinning hair or a widening part; and a lace-front wig gives full coverage for significant hair loss. All are available in 100% human hair.

How long do they last?

With proper care, a Lauren Ashtyn human hair piece can last up to three years—far longer than synthetic alternatives.

Will they damage my natural hair?

No. Our clip-in pieces apply and remove in seconds and are gentle on your natural hair, letting it rest and breathe underneath.
