Length that moves like it grew there.

How we work

The colour match happens before the install.

Most bad extension jobs are colour problems, not fitting problems. We match against your hair in daylight, order to that, and only book the install once the hair is in and confirmed.

The studio

A long appointment, and nobody rushing it.

A full weft install is four to six hours. We book it as one block with one stylist, so you are not handed off halfway through or squeezed between two colour clients.

  • One appointment, one stylistThe person who matched your colour is the person who fits it.
  • Hair you can take with youWefts and K-tips are reusable through several move-ups if they are looked after.
  • We will talk you out of itIf your hair is not in a state to carry extensions, we say so and give you a plan instead.

Clients

What people say after.

She matched two shades I would never have put together and it disappears into my own hair completely.

Camille R. · Palm Beach

Told me my hair needed three months of repair before she would fit anything. Nobody else had been that straight with me.

Yasmin T. · Northwood

Six hours in one chair, one stylist, and the cut afterwards is what actually sold it. No shelf, no gaps.

Before you book

Reasonable questions.

Badly fitted or badly maintained extensions can, which is why weight and placement matter more than method. We fit to what your hair can carry, and if that is less than you hoped for we will tell you at the consultation rather than after.

Tape-ins are usually 90 minutes to two hours. A full hand-tied or K-tip install runs four to six hours including the blend cut. It is booked as a single block, so bring something to do.

Every six to ten weeks for a move-up, depending on method and how fast your hair grows. Leaving it much longer is where matting and tension problems start.

Yes to all three. Chlorine and salt need rinsing out promptly, and you will want a loose braid for sleeping and the gym. We go through the whole routine at the install and send it to you in writing.

Yes — the hair and the labour are quoted separately so you can see what each costs. The hair is yours, and with care it lasts through several move-ups.

Book a removal. It is quick, it is not dramatic, and your own hair goes back to what it was. Removal is priced on the menu like anything else.

Start with the colour match.

Free, about forty minutes, and you leave with a written quote whether or not you book.
