Choosing the right type of hair extension depends on your hair type, density,  lifestyle, and desired look.

Our expert Extension Specialists will provide a personalized consultation to assess your hair and recommend the best extension method for you, ensuring a seamless blend and natural appearance.

The lifespan of hair extensions varies depending on the type and how well they are maintained. 

Generally, quality extensions like those we use here at Dwell Studio Salon can last anywhere from 6-12+ months before the hair needs to be replaced.

We recommend scheduling maintenance appointments every 6 to 8 weeks, depending on the extension method and type.

Regular maintenance ensures your extensions remain secure, look natural, and keep your natural hair healthy. During these appointments, our stylists will adjust and care for your extensions as needed.

Yes, you can style your hair extensions with heat tools such as curling irons, straighteners, and blow dryers. However, it’s essential to use a heat protectant spray to prevent damage. Our Extension Specialists will recommend the best products to use for maintaining your extensions.

When applied and maintained correctly, hair extensions are safe for your natural hair. There is no “one-size-fits-all” method. This is why our extension stylists tailor a solution that is uniquely for you.

At Dwell Studio Salon, our skilled Extension Stylists use techniques that minimize stress on your natural hair, ensuring it remains healthy and strong while wearing extensions.

The process begins with a complimentary consultation where we assess your hair, discuss your goals, and choose the best extension type for you. 

Our stylist will do a color-match to your existing color, or discuss whether future coloring is necessary to meet your goals.

We then discuss the cost-aspect of the service including maintenance, and receive a deposit towards the cost of hair. We work with extension brands all over the world and order hair specifically for you, unless you match to hair that we have in the salon.

Typically, we schedule your installation 2-7 days out, depending on both of our calendars and the availability of the hair we are ordering.

On the installation day, your stylist will expertly apply the extensions, blend them with your natural hair, and style them for a flawless finish. The entire process can take 1.5 - 3+ hours, depending on the type. We love to take before and after photos to show off your amazing transformation… with your permission, of course ;)

Before you leave, we will get you set up with all the best products to take great care of your new hair. We’ll also schedule your next maintenance appointment.

Yes, you can swim and exercise with hair extensions, but it’s essential to take precautions.

Before swimming, wet your hair with clean water and apply a leave-in conditioner to protect it from chlorine or saltwater. Braid the hair and secure it low on the head to prevent tangling.

After swimming, rinse your hair thoroughly. When exercising, tie your hair back to prevent tangling and avoid excessive sweating that can weaken the bond.
