Genius Weft
Designed by co-founder Whitney Sexsmith, our proprietary Genius Wefts are made in our facilities that we operate ourselves, exclusively for Prolonged Hair. No batch is released until both founders, Jonathan and Whitney Sexsmith, have personally approved it.
No white labeling. No shared production lines. No outsourced manufacturing.
The difference is measurable. Independent blind laboratory testing demonstrated 430% greater tensile strength and 72.6% less breakage compared with leading brands.
Our standards begin with the raw hair. We control our own supply chain, oversee every stage of processing, and preserve the hair’s natural cuticle integrity. Every batch is produced to our specifications, documented, and independently blind tested.
Our sourcing is backed by documented donor consent and compensation records.
We never use silicone coatings or textile dyes.
We know exactly what goes into our hair because we’re responsible for every step.
We don’t order a finished product from a factory’s catalog, customize it, and resell it. We create every Prolonged Hair weft, from raw hair to finished piece.
Your reputation is behind every installation. You deserve to know exactly what you’re putting into it.
Professional pricing is available exclusively to licensed stylists with approved Prolonged Hair accounts.

- Flat, Flexible Comfort:
An ultra-flat, flexible seam with no return hair, designed to sit close to the scalp and minimize bulk.
- Freedom to Customize Color:
Cuticle-intact hair with no silicone coatings or textile dyes, allowing professional bleaching, toning, and color customization. Always strand-test, and complete color services before installation.
- Cut-Anywhere Precision:
Designed to be cut anywhere along the seam, giving you precise control over width and placement for each installation.
- Blend Shades. Build Dimension:
Each box contains two 13-inch wefts, making it easy to combine shades and create customized blends without purchasing unnecessary quantities.
- Naturally Tapered Movement:
A carefully tapered finish creates a soft transition through the lengths, helping extensions blend naturally with your client’s hair.
- Measured, Not Promised:
Zero shedding is a promise no weft can keep, so we test instead. In our 50-wash-cycle test, Genius Weft lost less than 1% of its hair.
- Our Design. Our Manufacturing:
Designed by co-founder Whitney Sexsmith, our proprietary Genius Wefts are made to our exact specifications in facilities we operate ourselves, exclusively for Prolonged Hair. Every batch is documented, independently tested, and personally approved by Jonathan and Whitney before release.
