With hair extension salons popping up all over London and more and more stylists offering them how do you pick the best hair extensions in London.
Well here are a few tips to help you along the way. It’s always super important to make sure the person you are going to get your hair extension fitting has all these areas covered.
The technician is not new and has done a substantial number of hours of hair extension application. A hair extensionist doing no other hair dressing like colour will always have a lot more experience as they will not be spending their time doing cuts and colours which increases their hours of their hair extension craft. Obviously this is only if they have hair extension clients so it’s important to ask to see pictures of their work or website with lots of photos either with their logo or proving its actually their work. I have had my pictures stolen on a number of occasions
Worldwide market leading brand will only supply to people who have had their training and are NVQ qualified hair dressers but just because they have had a day’s training it doesn’t mean they are good. Its’ like every skill in life it takes time to master.
Its also very important to find out if the person applying is going to be cutting your hair after as a highly skilled hair extension technician would never pass their work to another hair dresser to cut as cutting hair extensions is an art in itself,
It’s very important to know what product they are going to use on your as some products and methods do not suit super fine hair. European hair is usually the most expensive then you have Indian and Chinese products. Chinese hair being the lowest grade when it comes to hair extensions. But be warned Chinese hair can be disguised as Mongolian hair and many other fancy names. I would say it’s always best to go with a world know brand such as Richy hair, Great Lengths or Hair dreams if you have any problems with quality issues or application the brand can help you. With reputable brands above using Indian or European hair the hair it always be its true origin so you have that security.
Pricing will always be based on how short your natural hair is to start with and how long and thick you want to go from your natural hair. The longer the length of the extensions your require and thickness the more costly it will become.
Basically in the hair extension industry you get what you pay for you pay higher price for the best hair and the experts to apply it.
