Frequently Asked Questions
Are extensions suitable for over 50s?
Absolutely. For over 50s, extensions offer volume for thinning hair. Micro bonds or clip-ins are the best options.
What's the best extension method for 20-somethings?
All methods suit young adults. Kanekalon is popular for trying out, clip-ins are flexible, and keratin bonds are the longest-lasting solution.
Does age affect extension durability?
With age, hair thins and growth slows. This may slightly shorten maintenance intervals, but extensions work for all age groups.
