How to Choose the Right Hair Extensions Method for Your Hair

Hair extensions can totally be your fairy godmother, transforming your 'do from Cinderella-at-midnight to ballroom-ready!

But, with a gazillion options out there, how do you choose the right method for you?

Here’s a little Q&A to help you figure it out.

1. What’s Your Main Hair Goal?

• Just a touch more volume:

  If you've got fine hair and you’re not looking for Rapunzel-length but just want to amp up the volume, a single pack of professional hair extensions might be your solution. Think nano bonds - they're discreet and super easy to look after.

• I want length and a bit more thickness: Ready to invest a bit more time and cash?

  To create seamless length and ensure your natural hair blends in perfectly, you’ll need more extensions. We're talking 2 packs of nano bond extensions. Professionally applied and colour-matched to perfection.

• Go big or go home! Ultimate thickness and length:

  If you’re aiming for the stars (or just hair-commercial-level locks), this is a real commitment.

  You'll need 3 packs of nano bonds. But, just a heads up, the upkeep is a bit more intense. Consider getting weekly blow-drys to maintain the look and longevity.

  Being fabulous takes effort!

2. What’s Your Budget Like?

Extensions can be an investment, both time and money-wise.

So, think about what you're willing to splurge on.

Do you want a quick volume fix? Or are you ready to invest in a full-blown mane transformation?

3. How Much Time Can You Dedicate to Hair Maintenance?

Let's be real: the longer and thicker your extensions, the more time they’ll need.

Can you dedicate time for regular salon visits and maintenance routines?

If you're juggling a thousand things, you might want to consider a maintenance membership options to book those maintenance appointments in advance.

For 1 pack your looking at around an hour, for 2 packs around 2 hours… you get the gist….the more hair extensions you have - the longer your maintenance appointments will take.

4. How Long Do You Want Them to Last?

Different extensions have varying lifespans. Some might last for a few weeks, while others can go for months with the right care. Keep that in mind while choosing!
