I have been getting my extensions done here for years then moved back to NYC and I drove back this week specifically to get my cut color and extensions done here because NO ONE does custom extension like extology! Yes other places can simply add length but they do not do what this team can create which is beautiful hair that no one has ever known is not my natural hair. I trust them with my frail hair and worth every second of the drive. I am thrilled with the way my hair always turns out. Love you guys!

Allana is a hair magician!! I went to Extology for extensions to achieve a fuller look, and the results FAR exceeded my expectations. Allana makes the entire process seamless, and I've received so many compliments on how much fuller my hair looks and how hidden the extensions actually are! I've already scheduled my next extension appointment!

Kelcee fixed my hair, did an amazing job, and gave me exactly what I asked for! I asked for her to lighten my hair more, give me an ashy tone, and keep my dark roots! She did such a great job! She really listened to what I wanted. I would highly recommend this salon and specifically Kelcee (I have already told all of my friends to go!) She was also really easy and fun to talk to, which is always a great plus!

Yes! Extensions can be for you if you’re active as long as you’re taking care of them while you are enjoying life. Make sure your hair is up in a ponytail, bun, or braid, and rinse out your hair after any activity to remove any sweat/oils/dirt or whatever you get into, to prevent any slipping or damage to the bonds.

Do hair extensions damage hair?

Extology | Aug 24, 2020
Extology | Aug 24, 2020

Hair extensions should not damage your hair if the appropriate method is selected, correctly applied, and the extensions are properly maintained. Extensions can damage your hair if they are too heavy, if the bonds are too big or too tight, or if the hair gets tangled and matted. Hair extensions should never hurt (if you feel pain, they can damage your hair).

How long do the extensions last?

Extology | Aug 24, 2020
Extology | Aug 24, 2020

Hair extensions can last anywhere from 4 weeks to 6 months. This all depends on a variety of factors; what method of hair extension application is used, the thickness of your own natural hair, the health of your own hair, how much you sweat/workout, how oily your hair gets, how often you wash your hair, how much you style it, and how fast your hair grows.

Extology | Aug 24, 2020
Extology | Aug 24, 2020

Yes, hair extensions are a great choice post-chemotherapy once your own hair has grown out to at least 1.5 to 2 inches in length depending on the density of your own hair, and if they are applied correctly. They are a great way to transition from wearing a wig while growing your hair out. At Extology, we offer 20% off all hair services and products for cancer warriors.
