3 Things You Need to Know Before Getting Hair Extensions

Girllll… I’m not gonna lie to you.

If you’re even thinking about getting hair extensions, there are a few things you should know first—because once you do it, there's no going back (in the best way possible).

1. Hair Extensions Are Addicting—Period.

Let’s just start here:
Hair extensions will change your life.

In one 3-hour appointment, you go from “okay” to OMG who is she?!

Extensions add volume, enhance your color, make your style pop, and most importantly—make you feel like a whole new person. You’ll leave the salon looking expensive, fresh, and confident. And once you’ve felt that? Yeah… there’s no un-feeling it.

2. Extensions Aren’t Just for High Maintenance Girlies

Let’s set the record straight.
Are hair extensions high maintenance? Sure.
But they’re high maintenance to be low maintenance.

Let me explain:

With extensions, your day-to-day hair routine becomes so much easier:

  • No more bad hair days

  • Your curls and blowouts last forever

  • Ponytails look thick, healthy, and full

  • You can go longer between washes

  • Dry shampoo and half-washes become your new besties

Who else here lives for the half wash life? 🙋‍♀️

Now, let’s be real. They are an investment:

  • They require the right products

  • You’ll need proper at-home care and regular salon maintenance

  • Wash days take longer (it’s a lot of hair, boo)

BUT—and this is the part that matters—you’ll do your hair less often and it’ll look better more often. So yes, it’s work… but it’s the kind of work that makes life easier.

3. Taking Care of Your Investment Matters

As your stylist, my job isn’t just to make you look good for one day—it’s to make sure your extensions (and natural hair) stay healthy and strong for the long run.

That starts with:

  • A solid haircare regimen

  • Investing in quality products

  • Making smart decisions with color, styling, and treatments

Once you’ve got the right foundation, we can do so much more—whether that’s changing your color, trying new styles, or going for more volume.

Because extensions shouldn’t just look good… they should last.
