How long do hair extensions last?​
The longevity of your hair extensions depends on individual care and maintenance. With proper upkeep, they typically last between 6 to 9 months or even longer.​
Are hair extensions damaging to my natural hair?​
No! Hair extensions themselves are not damaging if properly installed and maintained. The key to avoiding damage is proper installation by a professional and regular maintenance by the client.
How much do hair extensions cost?​
The price of hair extensions varies depending on the specific needs of each client, such as the type of extensions, length, and desired look. We provide a personalized quote during your consultation.​
Can I wash my hair after getting it colored?
Yes, you can wash your hair after coloring. However, we recommend waiting at least 24 hours before washing to allow the color to set properly.​
How far in advance should I book my appointment?​
To ensure you get the ideal time and day, we recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks in advance. Our schedule can fill up quickly, especially for popular time slots.​
Do you require deposits for appointments?​​
Yes, some services, particularly for larger or custom appointments, require a non-refundable deposit to secure your booking. This will be discussed when you schedule your appointment.​
Do you offer consultation services before booking hair extensions?​
Absolutely! We highly recommend booking a consultation to discuss your desired look, assess your hair type, and determine the best extensions for your needs. This helps ensure you get the most natural and flattering results.​​
Can I wear my hair extensions during exercise or swimming?​
Yes, you can wear your extensions while exercising or swimming, but it’s important to care for them properly. We recommend keeping your hair tied back during exercise and using a swimming cap to protect your extensions from chlorine.
How do I maintain my hair extensions?​
Regular maintenance is crucial. Be sure to follow proper hair care techniques, including using sulfate-free shampoos, avoiding heat damage, and scheduling regular maintenance appointments to ensure your extensions stay in great condition.​​
What type of hair care products do you recommend for hair extensions?​
We suggest using high-quality, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, as well as leave-in conditioners and oils to keep your extensions soft and hydrated. Avoid products with alcohol, as they can dry out the hair.
Are your products safe for all hair types?​​
Yes, we offer a wide range of hair products and extensions that cater to all hair types, including curly, straight, fine, and thick hair. Your stylist will recommend the best products for your hair’s unique needs.​
