Hair
Extension
FAQ's
Q. How long
will it take
to add
extensions
to my own
hair?
A - This
will depend
on the look
you are
going for
and
consequently
how many
extensions
it will take
to achieve
that look.
On average a
thickening
process
could take
1-3 hours
and a
lengthening
process 4-5
hrs. We will
fully advise
you of
timings and
costs when
you have
your initial
consultation
at Naomi &
Ashley's
Hair Design.
Q. Will
people
be able
to tell
that I’m
wearing
extensions?
-
A -
Provided
you
choose a
style
and
color
that
matches
your own
hair,
the
extensions
will
look
totally
natural
and no
one need
ever
know
except
you and
perhaps
that
special
someone
who is
allowed
to run
their
hands
through
your
hair. On
the
other
hand, if
you're
going
for an
obviously
fun,
funky
look for
a party
or for
just to
enjoy a
different
buzz,
then of
course
people
will be
able to
tell -
but only
because
you want
them to.
Q. How
much
will it
cost?

Q. Will
my hair
look
natural?
-
A - All
our
extensions
are
custom-made
for you.
For Real
hair, we
keep
detailed
records
of your
color
and
order
the hair
in for
each
individual
client.
For fake
hair we
blend
all of
our hair
in front
of our
clients
for a
truly
natural
effect,
we take
great
care to
blend in
a range
of both
highlights
and
lowlights
into
each
head of
hair we
work
with, so
that
your
extensions
have
exactly
the same
depth
and
reflectiveness
of any
natural
head of
human
hair.
All this
makes
your
extensions
truly
undetectable
from the
real
thing
Q – Will
Extensions
damage
my hair?
-
A - This
is a
commonly
asked
question.
When
extensions
are
applied
properly
there is
virtually
no
reason
why they
would
damage
your
hair,
and to
this end
thousands
of women
have
used
extensions
to grow
their
own hair
to a
desired
length
with no
adverse
effects
whatsoever.
However,
that is
not to
say
everybody's
hair is
suitable
for
extensions.
At
Naomi
and
Ashley
Hair
Design
we take
the
safety
of your
hair
very
seriously
and take
every
reasonable
precaution
to
ascertain
the
suitability
of your
hair
before
commencing
with the
extensions.
This
includes
a free
consultation
and free
test
extensions
as well
as
complimentary
check up
appointments
while
you are
wearing
the
extensions.
Everybody
experiences
normal
hair
shedding,
don't
worry,
this is
entirely
natural.
You will
notice
on your
hairbrush,
whether
you wear
extensions
or not,
that you
shed
between
70 to
100
hairs a
day -
adding
up to
around
3,000
hairs a
month or
36,000 a
year. It
seems a
lot but
on
average
we have
at least
100,000
to
150,000
hairs on
our
heads
alone,
so this
rate of
growth
and
renewal
is
entirely
normal.
Q - How
long
will my
extensions
last?
-
A -
About
3-5
months
depending
on hair
type and
thickness,
the
consultation
will
provide
us with
a more
accurate
estimate.
Q - Can
I just
add
highlights?
-
A - Yes.
This is
a very
effective
way of
enjoying
extensions
and you
can
choose
instant
color
that
your
hairdresser
might
otherwise
feel
would be
too
damaging
to
chemically
apply to
your own
hair.
With
extensions
no
harmful
dyes or
solutions
are used
and you
can
either
opt for
subtle
highlights
and
lowlights
or even
bold
neon's,
reds,
blacks,
blues,
yellows,
pinks,
and
greens -
whatever
you
want,
really.
Hair
extensions
are a
great
way of
achieving
a bold
new or
natural
color
Q -
Should I
give my
hair a
rest
between
extensions?
-
A -
There is
no need
if they
are
properly
applied
and
removed,
so your
own hair
remains
undamaged.
Most
people
prefer
to have
their
extensions
removed
and
replaced
on the
same
day, so
their
hair
continues
looking
as good
as ever.
Q - Can
I bath,
shower,
swim, go
out in
the wind
and
rain,
and play
sport in
my new
extensions?
-
A - Your
new hair
will
look as
fabulous
wet as
it does
dry, and
the
extension
joins
will not
show in
water.
You can
shower,
swim and
go out
in the
wind and
rain
without
having
to
worry.
Our hair
extensions
perform
as well
on the
sports
field or
in a
gale as
the
thickest
head of
rooted
hair.
They are
so well
connected
to your
own hair
that
they are
indistinguishable
from
natural
hair and
just as
tough.
Q - What
about
sun and
salt-water
damage?
-
A -
Treat
your
extensions
exactly
as well
as would
your own
hair and
they
should
not
suffer
during
daily
wear.
Q - What
happens
if I
don't
like my
new
extensions?
-
A - This
very
rarely
happens,
but if
you are
unhappy
it is
strongly
advisable
you let
qualified
staff
members remove
your
hair
extensions
without
damage
or
residue,
leaving
your
hair
just as
it was
when you
started.
Q -
How
experienced
is
your
salon
in
extensions
work?
-
A -
At
Naomi
&
Ashley's
Hair
Design
we
are
well
trained
in
recommending,
styling
and
applying
hair
extensions
to
suit
your
look
and
needs.
Hair
extensions
are
different
from
ordinary
hairdressing,
and
that
is
why
many
salons
cannot
apply
good
hair
extensions.
It
is
always
best
to
entrust
extensions
work
to a
studio
specializing
in
them,
such
as
Naomi
&
Ashley's
Hair
Design.
We
are
determined
to
make
beautiful
extensions
affordable
and
attainable
for
every
woman
who
has
ever
longed
for
the
hair
of
her
dreams.
Best
of
all,
it
can
be
achieved
within
hours,
not
years.
Q -
Can
I
style
the
extensions?
-
A -
We
can
show
you
how
to
style
your
extensions,
but
basically
as
long
as
you
avoid
the
bonds,
you
can
style
the
way
you
would
your
regular
hair.
Let
it
air
dry
for
a
natural
wave,
structure
a
wave
or
curl
with
a
curling
iron
or
curlers,
or
straighten
with
an
iron.
Q -
Won't
all
those
extensions
be
too
heavy
for
my
own
hair
underneath?
-
A -
If
they
are
applied
correctly
there
should
be
no
problem
whatsoever.
A
good
technician
will
balance
the
weight
perfectly,
taking
a
section
of
your
hair
and
adding
an
extension
of
equal
weight,
resulting
in a
completely
balanced
natural
look.
It
is
surprising
how
quickly
you
get
used
to
having
a
gloriously
full
head
of
hair.
Q.
Will
my
scalp
still
be
able
to
breathe
naturally
with
extensions?
-
A -
Our
extensions
are
fitted
close
to
the
hair
roots
and
scalp
but
do
not
block
them,
so
you
will
be
able
to
feel
and
touch
your
scalp
as
normal.
Q.
Do I
need
to
buy
expensive
shampoos
and
conditioners?
-
A -
Because
the
extensions
are
made
from
100%
human
hair,
most
shampoos
and
conditioners
are
fine
to
use,
however,
those
that
contain
proteins
or
silicon
should
be
avoided.
Q.
Can
I
use
a
hairdryer,
hot
rollers
and
other
styling
equipment?
-
A -
Yes,
you
can
use
all
of
the
above
with
real
hair
however
with
fake
hair
straightening
irons
and
curling
tongs
cannot
be
used.
We
will
explain
and
if
you
would
prefer
show
you
exactly
how
to
achieve
the
styles
you
want.
Q.
Is
it
safe
to
leave
my
hair
to
dry
naturally?
-
A -
Yes,
once
again,
you
can
treat
your
extensions
just
like
your
own
hair.
Q -
If I
want
a
new
hair
color,
how
will
that
match
up
with
my
extensions?
-
A -
Any
extension
hair
we
use
is
perfectly
matched
in
color
to
your
own.
If
your
roots
need
doing
before
extensions
are
added,
or
you
want
a
complete
change
of color,
we
can
color
your
own
head
of
hair
ahead
of
any
extensions
work.
We
then
add
extensions
that
will
have
been
carefully
blended
in
front
of
your
very
eyes
to
exactly
match
whichever
color
you
have
chosen.
