Your journey

Our Process.

From initial consultation to fitting your hair extensions, we believe our clients deserve a service that is not just the best - but legendary. Here is what to expect at every stage.

At a glance

From consultation to transformation.

  1. Free Consultation

    A complimentary appointment is held to discuss your desired look and evaluate the health of your hair, colour, length and thickness. This is where your bespoke plan begins - no obligation, no pressure.

  2. Hair Selection & Matching

    After consultation, your extensions are hand-blended from an array of colours, carefully selecting almost each and every strand for a seamless, natural colour match - whether your hair is highlighted, coloured or natural.

  3. Bespoke Preparation

    Custom extensions are crafted from your chosen ponytails in our state of the art workshop. Low in density and completely bespoke, we are able to create your hair in front of you - giving you complete control over the entire process.

  4. Fitting

    Your natural hair is first prepared by one of our experienced stylists before the extensions are fitted using micro rings. A full head takes approximately 2-3 hours. No adhesives, no harsh chemicals - ever.

  5. Maintenance & Aftercare

    Extensions need to be taken out and refitted every one to two months at a maintenance appointment. With proper aftercare, Russian hair extensions can last up to five years - a genuinely long-term investment.
