What extensions cost
There is no single price for extensions, because every application is custom. This is what drives the number, and what to budget for after the first appointment.
The five things that set the price
- The methodStrand-by-strand keratin bonds take the longest to apply and cost the most. Tape-ins and wefts sit in the middle. Clip-ins and halos are the lowest upfront.
- The amount of hairAdding subtle volume might take a fraction of what a dramatic length change needs. More hair means more product and more chair time.
- LengthLonger extension hair costs more per strand or weft.
- Colour workCustom blending, multiple shades or toning the extension hair adds time.
- The specialistCertification level and experience affect pricing, and are the biggest factor in a damage-free result.
Budget for the whole year
| Method | Upfront | Ongoing | Hair replaced |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tape-in | ●●○○ | Move-up every 6–10 weeks, often a flat rate | After about 3 reapplications |
| Keratin bond | ●●●● | Check-ins; full refit every 3–5 months | Usually at each refit |
| I-tip / nano ring | ●●●○ | Move-up every 6–8 weeks | Every few months |
| Hand-tied weft | ●●●○ | Move-up every 6–10 weeks | Every 6–12 months |
| Clip-in / halo | ●○○○ | None | Every 6–12 months |
