Question 1

How much are hair extensions at AURA Salons?

Accepted Answer

The total cost of hair extension services depends on a number of factors such as your hair type and colour, what you'd like to achieve and therefore what length, shade and quantity of extensions you require.

We provide complimentary consultation appointments for this reason. It gives us the chance to discuss your desired finished look and for me to assess your natural hair. I can then give you a quote for what we've discussed.

Question 5

Do hair extensions damage the natural hair?

Accepted Answer

Hair extensions have the potential to cause damage to your natural hair if:

- they aren't fitted correctly by an experienced stylist
- they aren't cared for correctly following the aftercare instructions provided
- they aren't properly maintained on time

It's important to choose an experienced stylist who genuinely has your best interests at heart and has a plan in place to ensure the safety of your natural hair. You should be advised when maintenance will be needed by and given detailed aftercare instructions.

Which brings us onto aftercare. It's so important once you've left the salon that you know exactly how to care for your new hair correctly. This prevents potential issues such as matting, tangling, extension slippage and more which can result in damage to the natural hair.

As your natural hair grows and goes through its natural shedding phases its inevitable that the extensions will move down with this growth and eventually not have enough natural hair within the extensions bond to hold the weight of the extension any longer.

If left for too long, this can cause tension on the natural hair resulting in breakage and even bold patches. Maintenance appointments are advised every 6-8 weeks depending on how quickly your hair naturally grows and sheds.

At maintenance appointments all extensions are removed, naturally shedded hair is brushed out. New sections of natural hair are taken and new beads fitted back up at the root area to ensure safe wear for another 6-8 weeks.
