FAQs

  • What type of hair extensions do you offer?
    I specialize in sew-in extensions, including hand-tied, machine wefts, and Genius Wefts. These methods provide a natural, lightweight feel while protecting your natural hair.
  • Are the extensions made from real human hair?
    Yes! I only use 100% real human hair for the most natural look and longevity. This allows you to style, wash, and treat them just like your natural hair.
  • What is the difference between hand-tied, machine, and Genius Wefts?
    Hand-Tied Wefts: Ultra-lightweight, flexible, and blend seamlessly with natural hair. Best for fine to medium hair. Machine Wefts: Slightly thicker and more durable, making them great for adding volume to thicker hair. Genius Wefts: A mix between hand-tied and machine wefts—thin like hand-tied but can be cut without unraveling, allowing for a custom fit.
  • Are sew-in extensions suitable for fine hair?
    Yes! Sew-in extensions are great for all hair types, including fine hair. Hand-tied and Genius Wefts are especially good options because they are lightweight and blend seamlessly without adding bulk.
  • How do I know if sew-in extensions are right for me?
    Sew-in extensions work for all hair types, including fine, medium, and thick hair. A consultation will help determine the best method and number of rows for your desired look.
  • Can sew-in extensions damage my natural hair?
    No! When properly installed and maintained, sew-in extensions do not damage natural hair. In fact, they can help protect it by minimizing heat and styling damage.
  • How long does it take to install sew-in extensions?
    Installation typically takes 2–3 hours, depending on the number of rows needed for your desired look.
  • How often do I need to get my extensions moved up or maintained?
    Sew-in extensions should be moved up every 6–10 weeks as your natural hair grows.
  • Can I wash and style my extensions like my natural hair?
    Yes! You can wash, blow-dry, curl, and straighten your extensions. I recommend using a sulfate-free shampoo and avoiding heavy oils near the scalp.
  • What products should I use on my extensions?
    Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, leave-in conditioner, and heat protectant spray. Avoid heavy oils and products that cause buildup near the weft.
  • Can I color or tone my extensions?
    While extensions can be toned or darkened, lightening is not recommended. It’s best to choose a shade that matches your desired look.
  • How do I brush and detangle my extensions properly?
    Use a loop brush or soft-bristle brush, starting at the ends and working your way up. Always hold the hair at the roots to prevent tension.
  • Can I wear my hair up with sew-in extensions?
    Absolutely! Sew-in extensions are designed to be versatile, so you can style your hair in ponytails, buns, and braids.
  • Do I need to avoid any activities, like swimming or working out, with extensions?
    You can work out and swim, but it’s best to braid your hair or wear it in a low ponytail to prevent tangling. If swimming, rinse your hair with fresh water beforehand and apply a leave-in conditioner for added protection.
  • How long do sew-in extensions last?
    With proper care, sew-in extensions can last 9–12 months, but you’ll need regular maintenance every 6–10 weeks.
  • How do I know when it’s time to replace my extensions?
    If your extensions feel dry, brittle, or tangled easily, it may be time for a fresh set. Proper care will extend their lifespan.
  • Can I remove my extensions myself?
    I strongly recommend having a professional remove your extensions to prevent damage to your natural hair.
  • Will my natural hair grow while I have extensions in?
    Yes! Sew-in extensions do not stop hair growth. In fact, they protect your natural hair from heat and styling damage, helping it grow healthier over time.
  • How much do sew-in extensions cost?
    Pricing varies based on the length and amount of hair needed, but sew-in extensions typically range from $300–$1,500+, including hair and installation. A consultation is the best way to get an exact quote.
  • Do you require a consultation before getting extensions?
    Yes! A consultation is required to match your hair, discuss your goals, and determine the best number of rows for your desired look.
  • Do you offer financing or payment plans for extensions?
    I do not currently offer financing, but we can discuss breaking up services into multiple appointments if needed.
  • How do I book an appointment for a consultation or installation?
    You can book a consultation by visiting my website, calling the salon, or messaging me on social media. I recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred time.
