Method, hair and strands

The cost depends on the method: tape-in, weft and keratin bonds each take a different amount of time and skill. Hair type and colour matter, and so does whose hair is used, your own or a purchased set. The number of strands and their length set the total, so ask for both when you request a quote.

Rules, training and deposits

Some extension systems are sold only to certified stylists: one brand states that a stylist must be certified before applying its extensions, and the course can be taken online or at live seminars. Rental companies ask for a refundable security deposit on top of the rental fee. Stylists who want to learn extensions pay for group classes, and one two-day class is listed at R 2,750.

Season and timing

Summer runs from December to February and winter from June to August. If you want extensions for a December event, book in November so there is time for a correction before the date.

What to write in your request

Give the number of strands, the strand length, the hair type and colour, and whether the hair is your own or a purchased set. Say if this is a first visit or a correction, the date and time you prefer, your district and your budget. A photo of the look you want makes the replies more precise.
