Harper Ellis Hair Co., an innovative leader in professional hair extensions, announces the launch of the Volume Elite Weft, the brand’s highest-density weft engineered to deliver maximum volume using fewer wefts and significantly less install time.
Designed with more hair per linear inch than traditional wefts, Volume Elite Wefts allow stylists to achieve bold, full transformations without excessive stacking or added bulk. The result is a cleaner, flatter install that improves efficiency behind the chair while maintaining the elevated look and feel Harper Ellis is known for.
Volume Elite Wefts were developed directly in response to stylist feedback and evolving industry needs. As demand grows for fuller results completed in less time, this innovation bridges the gap between dramatic volume and professional efficiency. The cut-safe, coated top band allows for custom sizing and compatibility across all hand-tied installation methods, enabling stylists to integrate the product seamlessly into their existing techniques.

“Stylists were asking for bigger transformations without more stacking, more bulk, or more time in the chair,” said Terra Harvell, Founder and CEO of Harper Ellis Hair Co. “Volume Elite Weft delivers bold, impactful volume with fewer wefts while still laying clean and flat to the head. It’s another elite tool that allows artists to work faster, smarter, and with total confidence in their results.”
Volume Elite Wefts are available in four lengths: 14” (70g), 18” (90g), 22” (120g), and 24” (140g). Each weft is 26 inches wide and designed for cut-to-custom sizing. One Volume Elite Weft delivers the same total grammage as four Harper Ellis Elite Wefts, allowing stylists to build fullness using fewer wefts overall. The product is offered in the full Harper Ellis Hair Co.® shade range.
