Facts

In some hair extension methods, the hair may be re-used for up to a year or more if properly maintained

If you plan to wear hair extensions for an extended period of time, this could be the determining factor in which method you choose.

 

 

Hair Extension Companies

 

 

All of the company information is easy to forget or even mix up. The chart (included in the E-book) contains some of the important points of each of the above companies in a chart where you can compare all the methods.

We have elaborated on PRICES and HOW LONG THEY LAST:- See below.

Prices:
Keep in mind that the price comparisons should not be used solely to determine which extension method you use. These prices are just ballpark prices and some of
them will be for a full head of extensions and some will be for just highlights or half a head. Also, each person will have completely different requirements for the amount of extensions and length needed. In larger cities the prices can be much higher and in smaller cities they can be a lot lower.
 

There is a direct relationship between prices and the time it takes to attach the extensions. The more time it takes, the higher the price. Several companies are working on improved technology that will allow a faster installation process. Initially, the prices will be higher to cover the costs of this new technology. Also, some salons will quote the total price, including hair and maybe some maintenance visits or removal, and other salons quote only the attachment fee, without the cost of the hair. Always make a list of what is included when comparing methods and salons.
Some salons and stylists do not like to quote prices since every person is completely different in the amount of extensions they get. For best results, determine which
method you prefer and then schedule a consultation to determine the prices.

How long they last:
The time frames listed here indicate how long the system will last. For example, some methods will allow the extension hair to be re-used each time. These time
frames DO NOT indicate how long you can wear the extensions continuously. Every type of hair extension requires some sort of maintenance visit, typically from 6-
wks to a few months, where the extensions are completely removed and re-attached.


Hair Re-useable:

Some of the attachment and removal methods for hair extensions are gentle enough to allow the hair to be reused when re-attaching the extensions. If there is a
Yes/No listed below, it can mean that the hair is reusable depending on proper removal and/or maintenance of the hair. Or that the company offers several methods of hair extensions and one allows for the hair to be reused and the other does not.

For complete details and comparison of methods, you will need to purchase the E-book, Hair Extensions-The Official Consumers Guide to Getting Hair Extensions.
