What Are Hair Extensions?

Let’s start with one of the most recent plunges in popularity at hair salons and that is the availability of hair stylists who are qualified and trained in a variety of types of hair extensions, from beaded rows to tape in to keratin bonding techniques. We’ll discuss here only the system the team of The Collective chooses, loves and uses on their clients hair, the NBR Extensions System.

Hair extensions are a fantastic way to add length or thickness to your own hair without having to cut it off. They can be used for any occasion such as weddings, proms, graduations, parties, special events, etc. They come in many different styles and colors so you can find one that suits your needs. They come in various shapes, sizes and colors. Synthetic hair extensions are generally cheaper than human hair extensions and can often be found in open to the public stores online from Amazon or such places. 

However, they do not offer the same quality as human hair extensions found in salons and can easily fall out and look “cheap” due to the low quality and fabrication of the hair. Beaded rows are a popular choice amongst women who wish to add length and body to their hair without any damage. These extensions are very easy to style and your hair can be worn in any number of ways. Your extensions artist here will show you the number of various styling options they provide.

Here’s how to do it…
  1. Start with the basics. First thing’s first – what type of hair extensions are you looking for? There are many types: clip-ins, sew-in, tape-in, beads, links, bonds etc. You will need to decide on what type is best for your lifestyle and budget.
  2. Now that you know what you want, it’s time to narrow down where you’ll find the best hair salon options. For example “hair extensions St. James” “hair extensions St. James, NY,” or “hair extensions St. James.” This way, you can see exactly what each salon offers and look at their Google reviews. Go online to see what others think about their experiences and see why New York residents and visitors come from all over the state to have their hair done by the professional extensions experts.
  3. Once you’ve chosen The Collective Salon, we will request that we see you in order to do a color match, meet you and your lovely locks and get the right amount of time on the calendar for your specific needs.
  4. Finally, once you’ve booked your appointment to come in and meet your hairstylist, gather some inspirational photos you find online or in a magazine and you can also bring in photos of hair that you don’t like. We want to get the best vision of your dream hair as possible.

The Collective Salon has existed for a decade now and offers everything from haircuts to hair highlights to hair color corrections to hair extensions and wedding day hair and makeup with an unforgettable world-class hair salon experience.
