Choose the connection your product range needs

Start with the construction required by your professional application plan. The Butterfly references show the Twin-Tab connection, while the Genius range offers a thin seam-based weft construction.

For a no-return-hair Genius project, include that feature in the sample brief. No return hair describes the absence of short folded-back hairs at the top seam; it is a construction feature, separate from the hair-quality grade.

Compare like-for-like specifications

Use the same requested length, colour, texture and hair-quality preference when comparing the two product families. Record net hair weight separately from the connection or seam, and state whether a quantity applies to one weft, one piece or a complete pack.

Product-specific sample cards can record finished width, connection dimensions and pack configuration alongside the selected reference. The product pages show development examples and available reference images.

Evaluate the Twin-Tab connection on the finished sample

Use the close-up of Butterfly reference 086 to identify the connection you are discussing, then measure the actual sample. Record finished width, tab dimensions, opening positions, net hair weight and the number of sections in the pack. The photograph does not supply those measurements.

Discuss the attachment method with the intended professional before approving the sample. Check access to the openings, connection condition and handling under the agreed evaluation method. Do not transfer Genius cutting instructions to a Twin-Tab connection or claim a universal installation time.

No. It describes the top-seam construction of the corresponding Genius Weft. Hair material, colour, texture and end fullness are separate parts of the product specification.
