How often should I wash my new hair extensions?
It is advised you wash your hair no more than 1-2 times per week.
How long will it take to add extensions to my own hair?
This will depend on the look you are going for and consequently how many extensions it will take to achieve that look. On average it will take between 1.5 to 2 hours.
Will people be able to tell that I’m wearing extensions?
Provided you choose a style and colour that matches your own hair, the extensions will look totally natural and no one need ever know except you and perhaps that special someone who is allowed to run their hands through your hair. On the other hand, if you're going for an obviously fun, funky look for a party or for just to enjoy a different buzz, then of course people will be able to tell - but only because you want them to.
How long does my hair have to be to have hair extensions?
4-5 inches but the nape of neck hair can be a little shorter 3 inches minimum.
Will Extensions damage my hair?
This is a commonly asked question. When extensions are applied properly there is virtually no reason why they would damage your hair, and to this end thousands of women have used extensions to grow their own hair to a desired length with no adverse effects whatsoever. However, that is not to say everybody's hair is suitable for extensions. I take the safety of your hair very seriously and take every reasonable precaution to ascertain the suitability of your hair before commencing with the extensions. This includes a free consultation. Everybody experiences normal hair shedding, don't worry, this is entirely natural. You will notice on your hairbrush, whether you wear extensions or not, that you shed between 70 to 100 hairs a day - adding up to around 3,000 hairs a month or 36,000 a year. It seems a lot but on average we have at least 100,000 to 150,000 hairs on our heads alone, so this rate of growth and renewal is entirely normal.
Can I just add highlights?
There is no need if they are properly applied and removed, so your own hair remains undamaged. Most people prefer to have their extensions removed and replaced on the same day, so their hair continues looking as good as ever.
What about sun and salt-water damage?
Treat your extensions exactly as well as would your own hair and they should not suffer during daily wear.
