A full tape-in application takes about 1 to 2 hours. Micro-ring or keratin bond fittings run 3 to 5 hours for a full head. Touch-ups and repositioning usually take 1 to 2 hours. Ask the salon to confirm the expected duration so you can plan around it properly.
Use sulphate-free shampoo and avoid scrubbing the bonds. Apply conditioner from mid-lengths down, never on the bonds. Brush with a loop brush or wide-tooth comb, starting at the ends and working up. Sleeping on a silk pillowcase and tying hair in a loose braid reduces friction and morning tangles.
Most human-hair extensions tolerate heat up to 180 degrees Celsius. Bleach lightens them but weakens the fibre, so lift by no more than one level. Repeated toners shorten lifespan. Always ask the stylist to perform a strand test before any colour service on attached extensions.
Price depends on the hair origin (Remy costs more than non-Remy), the method used, and the number of grams fitted. A full-head micro-bond application takes longer than tape-ins, so labour is higher. Stylist experience, location overhead, and whether the hair is single-drawn or double-drawn all affect the final quote.
Ask which brand and grade of hair is used, how many grams will be applied, and who performs the fitting. Request before and after photos of similar hair types. Confirm the refit schedule, total cost per session, and what happens if a bond or tape slips within the first week.
The main methods are tape-in, micro-ring, keratin bond, sew-in wefts and clip-ins. Tape-in uses adhesive strips and lasts about 6 to 8 weeks. Keratin bonds use heat-fused tips and can last up to 4 months. Each method suits different hair types, budgets and maintenance habits, so ask which one the stylist recommends before booking.
Good stylists check colour in daylight, not salon light. They compare the mid-lengths and ends, not just the roots, since extensions sit lower on the strand. Texture, density, and wave pattern also matter. Real human hair behaves like your own, while synthetic fibres melt under flat irons above 180°C.
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.
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.
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.
