EXTENSION FAQ


What is the total cost for hair color, a haircut, and an extension installation?

The total cost of hair extensions can vary depending on your specific goals, such as length, density, and color. For the initial installation, which includes the cost of the hair, the extension service, and hair coloring, prices range from $450 to $2,500. Our hair extension installation services include a haircut or split-end trim for your natural hair, as well as any necessary haircut for the extension hair, along with styling. The extensions are typically replaced annually, primarily if you wish to make adjustments to length, color, or fullness/density.

What type of extension method do you recommend?

Once you have your extension consultation with a Mane Techniques extension professional, we will be able to recommend what type of extension application is best for you and your hair! 

 

A very general guideline is:

Thinner Hair ≈ A Little Volume

Medium Hair ≈ Full Volume

Thick Hair ≈ Volume & Length

Very Thick Hair ≈ Full or Fuller Volume & Length
