Scissors and Hair Extensions SalonShopping for a hair extension stylist and one who knows how to properly install a stunning hair weave is not an easy task. As you already know, your hair is very important to you and it helps in defining your style. It’s your hair that frames your face and it’s your crowning glory. But if you don’t handle and care for your hair properly, it can completely ruin your whole look. So, if you plan on having hair extensions installed, it is very important to find a qualified and experienced hair extension stylist who can deliver great results.

Here are several recommended tips that you can follow to help you locate a hair extension stylist who will give you good value for your money:

One of the best ways to locate a good hair extension stylist is by relying on referrals from trusted friends or family members. Since you cannot adopt a “let’s wait-and-see” attitude with your hair and run the risk of finding out whether a stylist is qualified enough to install your hair extensions, it is best to try out stylists who have already received rave reviews from your friends and family. Most of us would rather place our hair with a stylist who has been recommended by someone we trust rather than in the hands of a stranger!

If getting a recommendation is not possible for one reason or the other, then you can check online websites for salons and stylists who are known for installing great weaves. There are several online sites that can help you locate salons and stylists in your local area. These sites also often provide you with testimonials and reviews from happy customers. This will help you in deciding which salon you feel is the best for the job.

Some extension stylists also have blogs and sites where they post pictures and information on hair extension installs that they have done in the past. Many of them also explain some of the processes they use to install and fix the hair extensions for their clients. Most of the blogs have additional details such as costs, methods used, contact details and links to other relevant sites. Some of the sites encourage people to ask questions while also displaying “before” and “after” photographs of previous clients to help you get a better idea of expected results.

Another important tip is to use a stylist who has relevant credentials and/or experience to support their claims of being a good hair extension stylist. At the same time, it’s also a good idea to choose a stylist who also wears extensions as they are better placed to understand how they work and which hair extensions are best for each individual.

Here are some other requirements that may assist you in finding a hair extension salon or stylist in your area:

A great hair extension salon should be truthful about the services and the quality of the hair extensions they provide and have available to their clients. A salon which lies about the extensions they are using on your head should not be trusted. There are some salons that promise a certain kind of hair extension knowing full well that they do not intend to get it for their client. If a salon promises you a certain hair extension and then tries to convince you to take something else, the warning bells should start ringing as it shows dishonesty and you should not even let them touch your hair. Your best bet to avoid this from occurring is to purchase your own hair extensions, and then have the salon do the installation. This will give you peace of mind that you’re getting quality hair.

A good hair extension salon should also take time to offer you advise regarding the different kinds of hair extensions available to you (if you have not purchased them yourself), and give you time to make an informed choice while answering any questions that you might have.

Finding someone who can share their knowledge and expertise, while providing you with a quality product and service is your best bet. After all, you earn your money and want to ensure it’s well spent.
