How much will hair extensions cost?

This depends on a number of factors including the amount of hair you require, the method of hair extension you choose and the quality and length of hair you would like. An accurate quote can only be given once you have attended a consultation, so we can discuss the look you would like to achieve and have assessed your hair. We will be happy to give you a rough quote by email if you send the following information:

  • A recent picture of your hair
  • The look you would like to achieve to include the length of hair you require
  • Your chosen method of hair extension
  • The quality of hair you require

Is my hair suitable for extensions?

This question can only be answered when we see your hair in person so we can assess the texture, length and quality. Most of the time the answer will be yes and we will discuss any limitations or compromises that need to be made at your consultation. The most common reasons for not being suitable are the length of your hair or if you suffer from hair loss or excessive thinning. However, budget restraints, lifestyle and expectations of what hair extensions can do can also be factors. All of this will be discussed in a comprehensive one hour consultation so we can explore all options available to you.

How easy will it be to look after my extensions?

Having a new head of hair does take some getting used to and you will need to make some adjustments to your haircare routine. You will be given in depth aftercare advice at your fitting with recommendations on the right products to use. It is really important that aftercare is followed and, if it is, you will find you adapt to your new routine within a couple of weeks.

Will it be obvious I am wearing extensions?

Our aim with every head of hair we do is to make your extensions look as natural as possible. The purpose of extensions is to create a better version of your own hair and this is achieved by ensuring the bonds are well hidden and that the extensions are cut to blend seamlessly with your own hair. We work as a partnership and utilise our skills to get the best out of your hair. Paul, who has been a stylist for over twenty years, is known for his precision cutting and has years of experience cutting wigs and extensions so he will ensure you will walk away with natural looking extensions.

How often to I need to maintain my extensions?

This will depend on the method of hair extension you choose but on average a maintenance appointment will be required every 6-8 weeks. It is very important you attend these appointments to avoid any matting developing.

How do I look after my hair extensions on holiday?

It is really important you look after your extensions when going on holiday, especially if you plan to go to a hot destination. The combination of strong sun, chlorine from the pool, sea water and the water abroad can leave your extensions dry and matted. To keep your hair in good condition you will just need to follow a few simple steps:

  • If you plan to sunbathe cover your hair extensions with a hat or scarf to protect them from the sun
  • Do not immerse your hair in pool or sea water 
  • Ensure you use a good conditioner and hair masks to keep your extensions hydrated
We will go through a more in depth aftercare plan for going on holiday at your fitting.

What will I need to purchase to keep my extensions in good condition?

All the hair extensions we fit are 100% human hair so you can style them as you would your own hair. To keep your hair extensions in the same condition as they were fitted it is strongly recommended that you purchase a salon quality shampoo, conditioner and hair mask. It is not recommended that a high street brand is used as this can dry out the extensions and cause colour changes. You will also need to buy a hair extension brush and a good quality aftercare products to keep the hair extensions hydrated. 

How much will a maintenance appointment cost?

Maintenance appointments cost £50 per hour. The length of your appointment will depend on the number of extension you have in your hair, the method of extension you choose and most importantly how well you have looked after your extensions. Matting in the hair will take additional time to comb out and this will extend your appointment time. If excessive matting is found you may be asked to come back for an extended appointment.

I had my hair fitted by someone else and want them maintained can you do this?

Unfortunately, we do not offer maintenance appointments on hair we have not fitted.

I have purchased my own hair can you fit this for me?

Our preference is always to source the hair ourselves as we can be sure the colour match is correct, enough hair has been ordered to ensure a natural blend and that the hair is 100% human hair. However, if you have your own hair we will be happy to fit this for you but you will take on full responsibility for the hair you have ordered.

It is worth keeping in mind that it is rare you will make a cost saving on purchasing your own hair as we charge trade price for the hair and make no profit on this.

I only want a couple of extensions fitted can you do this?

It is rare that only a couple of extensions will be enough to make a significant difference. However, if you feel this is all you want this can be done. Unless you have sourced the hair yourself you will be required to pay for a full pack of hair and a minimum fitting fee of £40 will be charged, which will include the extensions being cut. 

I am struggling to look after my extensions what should I do?

If the extensions have been fitted by us please get in touch! We are more than happy to offer any advice we can to ensure you settle into your new routine. 

A couple of my extensions have fallen out what should I do?

Depending on the method you have chosen it is quite normal to lose a few extensions between maintenance appointments. We will discuss with you how many you can expect to lose during your fitting but on average you should lose no more than 10 individual strands. Please keep these so they can be re-fitted at your next appointment. If you feel you are losing excessive amounts please get in touch.

I suffer from hair loss/thinning can I wear hair extensions?

Hair extensions will not be the right option in this scenario. However, there are other options available to you which we offer so please get in touch for more information.
