Can I colour hair extension hair? 

 You can never lighten the hair yet technically the hair is 100% human hair so many salons or clients do color the hair, but we recommend you don’t. If you choose to color the hair extensions the hair quality will drop and you may find the hair is much harder to look after. If you insist on colouring then use a non-ammonia semi permanent color range which is safer to apply to the hair extensions for temporary color change.

How long does my hair have to be before I can have extensions put in?

Your hair usually has to be at least 5 or 6 inches long before a weave can comfortably go on.  However, there are weave methods more suitable to hair that is shorter.  This can be discussed during your consultation. 

How long will my weave stay in for?

This depends on many factors.  The short answer to this is that it can stay in anywhere from 4 to 13 weeks.  A weave is non damaging to your hair and we dont add any chemicals or glue so as not to cause you any damage to your hair. Every head of hair is different, and how long it stays in for depends on your hair and your lifestyle.
