Feel free to check back as often as you'd like to see if any stylists in your area receive training! The service includes the installation of hair you bring in, a specialized cut for blending, and styling. I can also provide the hair for you at an extra cost, but I require that clients sign a waiver for hair that I provide, agreeing that I'm not responsible for the quality or longevity of the hair since I can't guarantee another company's hair.
If it's your first time shopping for hair, I recommend going to a store in-person so they can color match your hair. You can also refer to my "Buying Hair" page to find out what type of hair to ask for, and my favorite hair shops. I prefer that new clients bring in their own hair for installation; But when I provide the hair for clients, I pick up the hair on a per-client basis rather than keeping hair at the salon.

Where to Buy Hair
Report
Don't get synthetic hair, as it is made from plastic fibers, and will melt when heat is applied. Hair Type: If you're getting Non Sewn Beaded Wefts (NSBW) or Beaded Sew In you'll be shopping for weft/track hair. Quantity: A full pack, 3 ounces, or 150 grams is usually enough for a full head (three tracks doubled).
Upkeep to Expect
Report
Remembering the information on these after care pages could mean the difference between your extensions lasting one month or 6 months. Using a wet brush, brush your hair gently holding it all to one side, starting from the bottom, and working your way up. With track/weft type extensions, many people forget to brush near where the extensions are applied.
Tightening
Report
Beaded Sew In extensions cannot be tightened, they must be removed and re-applied, resulting in the same price point as the original install. On average, we lose 50-150 strands of hair per day. Tightenings are especially important because hairs that have already naturally shed will be stuck in the beads until I have a chance to brush them out.
Ingredients to Avoid
Report
It's very important to use the recommended products. Because hair extensions are no longer attached to a head, they do not receive the nutrients, natural oils, or immune system that your actual hair has. If you replenish the hair extensions with moisture from a product with acceptable ingredients, you'll notice your hair will last much longer.
Client Fav! NSBW
Report
The Non Sewn Beaded Weft (NSBW) method is a client favorite said to be the most comfortable and reliable of all extensions offered. With NSBW, your hair is facing in a downward direction the way it grows naturally, meaning it will lie flat and grow downward with no damage to the hair follicle. The following prices include the installation, a cut for blending if desired, and a style.
