GETTING STARTED
How do I know which extension method is right for me?
You don’t need to figure that out before reaching out. Your natural hair, density, goals, lifestyle, and desired result all play a role in determining the best option. I’ll guide you toward the method and amount of hair that makes the most sense for you.
How much do extensions cost?
New extension installations start at $2,500. Your exact investment depends on your natural hair, desired length and fullness, and the amount of extension hair needed to create your result. You’ll receive personalized pricing before booking your installation.
Do I need a consultation?
Yes. Every new extension client starts by completing my inquiry form with information about your hair, goals, and current photos. From there, I’ll review everything and guide you through the next step.
Can I get extensions if my hair is fine or thin?
Absolutely. In fact, creating natural-looking fullness for finer hair is one of my favorite transformations. The amount of hair, placement, and method are customized so your extensions complement your natural density rather than overwhelm it.

YOUR EXTENSIONS
Will my extensions look natural?
That’s always the goal. Your extensions are customized to your natural hair’s color, density, texture, and length so the finished result blends seamlessly and feels like it belongs there.
What’s the difference between Hidden Bead extensions and k-tips?
Hidden Bead extensions use wefts installed in rows, with the attachment points concealed for a seamless finish. K-tips are installed as individual keratin bonds, allowing for more customized placement and movement. The best option depends on your natural hair, lifestyle, and goals.
Will extensions damage my natural hair?
Extensions should never be one-size-fits-all. Proper placement, appropriate weight and density, professional maintenance, and good home care are all important for protecting the health of your natural hair.
How long does the extension hair last?
This varies based on the method, your home care, lifestyle, and how the hair is maintained. Hidden Bead extension hair can be reused through multiple maintenance appointments, while k-tip hair is replaced with each new application.

MAINTENANCE + HOME CARE
How often will I need maintenance?
Hidden Bead extensions are typically maintained every 6–8 weeks. K-tip wear time varies depending on your natural hair, density, growth, and shedding, but is typically around 2–4 months.
What is included in my Hidden Bead maintenance appointment?
Maintenance is all-inclusive and includes removal, customized color for your natural hair + extensions as needed, conditioning treatment, trim, reinstall, and finished style.
Can I wash, curl, and style my extensions normally?
Yes! You can wash and style your extensions much like your natural hair. I’ll walk you through proper home care and product recommendations so you know exactly how to care for them.
Can I swim and work out with extensions?
Yes. Extensions don’t have to keep you from your normal lifestyle. There are a few extra precautions with things like swimming, sweating, sleeping, and sunscreen, and I’ll go over those with you so you can protect your investment.
Do I need special products at home?
Proper products make a big difference in the longevity and condition of your extensions. Your new Hidden Bead installation includes an extension home-care kit, and I’ll give you recommendations based on your specific hair and method.
