You know how a woman feels after her visit to your salon. She feels renewed, refreshed and beautiful. She feels good about herself. But not everyone does.
There is a group of women who don’t get to experience that feeling. They are the 40 million women in America who suffer from hair loss or thinning hair. Their “bad hair day” is every day. Hair loss or thinning hair creates a void in their lives that is hard to fill.
THE SALON SOLUTION TO HAIR LOSS AND THINNING HAIR
Until now, salons have not had a viable alternative to offer their clients. Wigs are hot and uncomfortable. They can cover the problem but they do not solve the problem. Topical chemicals take months to show results and those results are often incomplete and not very good. The other option is surgery and salons are not in that business.
Evolve Hair Goods and Services is changing all that with the introduction of the Evolve Volumizer, the salon solution to hair loss and thinning hair.
As a stylist or salon owner, the Evolve Volumizer gives you a new way to fill the void, to offer the women in your community who suffer from hair loss or thinning hair this remarkable solution. They can now experience a new sense of self-esteem. They can now experience the joy of feeling beautiful – a truly life-changing experience.
WHAT IS THE EVOLVE VOLUMIZER?
The Evolve Volumizer is a nonsurgical, integrated hair replacement system. Evolve Volumizer is a unique wearable solution with a poly-mesh base that is lightweight, comfortable to wear and self-molds to the head. It allows the scalp to breathe, doesn’t trap or hold water, is completely flexible and causes no damage to existing hair.
There are two Evolve Volumizer products with many options to choose from that allows you to customize the perfect solution for your clients. There's the Basic Volumizer and Invisible Part Volumizer with Left, Center and Right parts to choose from. Made from 100% human hair, the Evolve Volumizer comes in a wide variety of colors and textures. It's integrated into the client’s own hair without the use of chemicals, adhesives, glues or heat so it won’t damage the existing hair.
NEW EVOLVE EXTENSIONS+
A new addition to the Evolve product line is Evolve Extensions+. With a superior technology, Evolve Extensions+ combines the speed of a tape-in, with no glues or adhesives, and the look and feel of a strand-by-strand taking hair extensions to a new level of quality and performance. Evolve Extensions+ installs in less than one hour and there is no prep work or adhesive removal when reinstalling. When you combine the highest quality 100% Remy cuticle hair with new technology and new techniques, it makes all the difference. The secret is in our unique Connection Base which lays completely flat and putting no stress on the hair. Evolve's special Connection Points are beveled with a double rounded edge to prevent damage.
Evolve Extensions+ are available in 20 colors including 16 basic shades and 4 blends.
