Tape-in rows must be re-taped or moved up every 6 to 8 weeks. Keratin bonds slide down with growth and need full removal plus reapplication every 3 to 4 months. Micro-rings are repositioned in 45 to 90 minute sessions. Skipping refits causes matting near the scalp and tangling at the attachments.
A full-head fitting usually takes 2 to 4 hours. Tape-ins are quicker, often around 1 to 2 hours. Micro-bond or micro-ring work takes longer because each strand is attached one by one. Speed also depends on how many grams are being applied and whether any cutting or blending is included.
A correct match compares the mid-lengths and ends, not just the roots, because extensions sit below the crown. The stylist should hold 3 to 4 swatches under natural light. If highlights are present, two or three tones may be blended. Mismatched colour is one of the most common complaints after a fitting.
The main methods are tape-ins, micro-rings, micro-bonds, clip-ins, sew-in weaves, and keratin-tip strands. Tape-ins use adhesive panels and sit flat against the head. Micro-bonds use small keratin tips fused with heat. Micro-rings use tiny metal beads crimped onto natural hair. Each method lasts a different time and suits different hair types.
Visible gaps between bonds, matting near the roots, or extensions sitting at very different lengths all suggest rushed work. Discomfort during fitting, glue showing on tape-ins, or beads that pinch the scalp are also red flags. A good result looks even, feels light, and allows free movement without pulling or snapping sounds.
Method, hair grade and length are the main cost drivers. Tape-in starts lower per gram; keratin bond costs more in labour. Hair longer than 50 cm is priced higher. The number of grams applied also matters. Always request a breakdown showing hair cost, fitting time and any future refits.
Heavy extensions can pull on follicles and cause traction alopecia over time. Symptoms include sore spots, small bumps, or thinning around the temples and hairline. Adhesive allergies are also possible. If the scalp feels tender after fitting, the weight or placement should be reviewed before the next wear.
Use sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner from mid-lengths down only. Brush with a loop brush or wide-tooth comb starting at the ends, working upward in small sections. Avoid sleeping with wet hair. Sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction, which is a leading cause of premature shedding.
Tape-ins need moving up every 6 to 8 weeks as natural hair grows. Micro-bonds and micro-rings often need refit every 3 to 4 months. Each visit can take 1 to 3 hours. Skipping maintenance causes tangling at the roots, slippage, and stress on the natural hair where the extension is attached.
Most full-head applications use between 100 and 150 grams of hair, depending on length and desired density. Fine hair usually needs fewer grams to avoid tension at the roots. The stylist should weigh the bundles in front of you. Adding too much weight is a frequent cause of traction damage.
