Hair extensions in Gilbert & Ahwatukee

Length and volume that look like you grew it

Extensions are an investment, and we treat them like one. Every install starts with a consultation so your color match, method, and maintenance plan are right from day one.

01Methods we offer

The right method for your hair

Tape-in, hand-tied weft, and clip-in extensions each suit a different hair type and goal. Your stylist will match the method to your hair, your lifestyle, and how much maintenance you want.

Tape-in

Pre-taped wefts attached to small sections of your natural hair. No heat, quick to install, and comfortable to wear. They come out cleanly and can often be reused at your move-up.

Best for. Fine to medium hair, and anyone new to extensions.

Upkeep. Move-ups every four to six weeks.

Sew-in (hand-tied weft)

Wefts tied by hand and sewn into a beaded foundation set in your own hair. No glue, no tape, no heat. The flat foundation lies comfortably and wears beautifully for fullness and length.

Best for. Medium to thick hair wanting maximum volume and longevity.

Upkeep. Move-ups every six to ten weeks.

Clip-in

Commitment-free length and volume for events and special occasions. We color match, cut, and style them in so they blend with your natural hair, then you take them home to wear again.

Best for. Brides, special events, and anyone who wants flexibility.

Upkeep. No salon move-ups. Store them flat and brush gently between wears.

02How it works

Done right, from consultation to care

Six steps from first conversation to your first move-up, so your extensions and your natural hair both stay healthy.

1

Consultation

We assess your natural hair, talk through your goals and budget, recommend the method that suits you, and walk you through pricing. The consultation is required, and there is no pressure to book on the spot.

2

Color match

We match your shade with real hair samples in salon lighting, not by guessing. If your color needs toning to blend perfectly, we plan that in before anything is ordered.

3

Hair ordered

Once your color and method are confirmed, we source quality hair matched to your shade and texture. You will have a written quote before any hair is ordered.

4

Install day

Placement takes about two to four hours depending on method and amount. We set your foundation, attach your wefts or tapes, and check the fit so everything sits comfortably.

5

Styling and cut-in

We cut and blend your extensions into your natural hair, then style the finished look so it moves like it grew that way.

6

Maintenance plan

Before you leave the chair we walk you through home care, recommend the right products, and schedule your first move-up so your extensions and your natural hair stay healthy.

03Caring for your extensions

Keep them looking new

Extensions last longest with sulfate-free care, gentle handling, and on-time move-ups. Your stylist will build you a simple routine with the lines we carry, Oribe, L'Anza, and Shibui, all available in our store.

  • Use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Sulfates strip extensions the same way they strip color.
  • Brush gently from ends to roots with a wet brush or an extension-safe brush.
  • Sleep in a loose braid or low ponytail to keep tangling down.
  • Use a silk or satin pillowcase when you can.
  • Keep heat styling at or below 350 degrees, and always use a heat protectant.
  • Never sleep with wet extensions.
  • Keep bonds or tapes dry for the first 24 to 48 hours after your install.
  • Tie hair up for workouts, and rinse with fresh water before and after swimming.
  • Avoid hot tubs and chlorine when you can. They are hard on the hair.
  • Keep your move-ups on schedule. Late maintenance is where damage to your natural hair starts.

Extensions FAQs

How much do hair extensions cost?
Installation starts at the rates listed above, and they vary with method, length, and how much hair you need. The hair itself is quoted separately from the installation. Because every head is different, we confirm everything at your consultation and you leave with a clear written quote before anything is ordered.
Why do I have to start with a consultation?
That is for your protection. The consultation is where we color match, confirm your hair can support the method you want, and order the right amount of hair. It is also where you get your written quote, with no obligation to book.
Will extensions damage my hair?
Properly installed and maintained extensions do not damage healthy hair. Damage comes from skipped move-ups, the wrong products, rough handling, or installing over hair that is already compromised. We assess your hair first to make sure extensions are right for you.
How long do extensions last?
The hair itself lasts roughly six to twelve months depending on method and care. Move-ups in between will refill, rotate, or replace your wefts and tapes every four to ten weeks. Your stylist will set expectations for the method you choose.
How long does an install take?
About two to four hours, depending on the method and how much hair you are adding. We will give you a time estimate at your consultation so you can plan your day.
Can I color my extensions?
Some, yes. Hand-tied and sew-in wefts can be toned and refreshed. Tape-ins are typically not recolored. We talk through what is possible for your hair at the consultation.
Can I work out and swim with extensions?
Yes. Tie your hair up for workouts, and rinse with fresh water before and after swimming. Avoid hot tubs and chlorine when you can, and keep your move-ups on schedule.
What if I do not love the result?
Tell us. Most adjustments can be made the same day. Color, cut, length, and density can all be tweaked so you leave happy.
Do you do extensions for weddings and special events?
Yes. Many brides and event guests book clip-ins or short-term extensions for the day. Bring photos for inspiration, and we will plan it at your consultation.
