So you have made the decision to have hair extensions applied but what’s next? Well after you have decided to transform your look and boost your confidence with the help of hair extensions it is important that you pay your stylist a visit and book yourself in for a consultation.

A consultation with your stylist should be a process that is free and a no obligation arrangement. If you are going to have extensions applied then I can’t stress enough how important a consultation with your stylist will be when it comes to finalising your decision for extensions. It is during this consultation that all of the important decisions regarding your extensions will be made. It is also the perfect opportunity for you to ask your stylist any questions that you have about what extensions are right for you as well as what is involved in the application and removal process and any aftercare queries that you have. Some of the most common questions that people have when it comes to hair extensions are as follows:

Are human hair extensions suitable for everyone?

• Hair extensions are a cosmetic procedure and should be applied to healthy hair. Your hair also needs to be at least two or three inches in length to provide comfortable attachments.

Are human hair extensions better, if so why?

• Most stylists only use human hair for their hair extensions because it behaves like your own hair. It is a general understanding that human hair extensions are better because they create a more natural look and effect. This means extensions can be professionally coloured, permed, tonged, straightened and blow-dried. They will adapt to any busy lifestyle, which enables you to enjoy everyday leisure time activities. There really are no limits to what you can achieve from your human hair extensions.

Will hair extensions damage my own hair?

• The way in which your extensions are applied is done so in a way that only uses the latest technology and advancements. In most cases your extensions will be attached via bonds. These bonds are made up of a special blend of polymers that imitate the molecular structure of human hair; thus acting as a perfect bridge between the extension and your own hair. If your extensions and the bond are maintained in the recommended way, they will not damage your own hair.

How long will my hair extensions last?

• A By following the easy, but regular care and maintenance programme, your hair extensions can last up to six months. As long as you are careful when it comes to brushing your hair and you use a strong conditioner then you should be fine with the looking after of your extensions.

How should I look after my hair extensions when they're in?

• A By following the guidelines set out on your consultation form and the advice explained to you in detail by your stylist. Also you should be invited to a free maintenance check after about three to four weeks of having your extensions applied.

How much will my hair extensions cost?
