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:
Someone looking for natural fullness and a little length requires a different amount of hair for
Thinner Hair ≈ A Little Volume
Medium Hair ≈ Full Volume
Thick Hair ≈ Volume & Length
Very Thick Hair ≈ Full or Fuller Volume & Length
How much is a move up and when do I go in to move the hair up?
Hair extension adjustments/move-up costs are based on the package you have. From I-Tips to
Sew-Ins the costs range from $75-$1100 per visit without Mane Membership savings.
Move-ups are typically every 8-10 weeks.
Guests with finer/more fragile hair typically visit every 6-8 weeks while guests with thicker/coarse hair or guest that have slow growth may visit every 10-12 weeks.

Can you do a slick back ponytail hair up?
Depending on the amount of natural hair you have surrounding the hair extensions, you may be able to! Just because you have fine or thinner hair does not mean you won’t be able to. We will suggest different styling techniques and methods of application to make your must-have styles possible. Adjusting to the additional hair can be a learning curve, but we are here to guide you through the possibilities.
Do extensions work on short hair?
Yes! Hair extensions can add color and fullness in addition to length. Tell one of our stylists your goals, and they will share what would work best for you!
How do I keep my hair healthy and what products should I use?

There are professional haircare options for all budgets, and our team is really great about setting you up for success with any budget you may have!
How do I know how often I need to come in?
Stylist Response to Client
Let’s start a la carte and see how 8 weeks feels. If that’s a good fit, we may recommend Cashmere (8–10 weeks) or Silk (7–9 weeks). We'll track growth, density, and comfort preferences closely.

We have flexible tiers. If your growth changes, we’ll adjust the plan. You’ll always get the best value from your membership.
