ConnectHair Personal Extension Consultation 2026

What ConnectHair’s free online extension consultation actually does

Choosing hair extensions blind is where most disappointments start: the wrong method for your hair type, a shade that reads warmer or cooler than expected, or far too little hair to blend naturally. ConnectHair’s personal extension consultation is online and free of charge, and it exists to remove that guesswork before you spend anything. You send information about your current hair and your goal, and you get a concrete recommendation on method, shade, length and amount instead of scrolling a catalogue on your own.

What the consultation covers

The aim is a set of recommendations tailored to your hair rather than a generic list. A consultation typically works through the following.

What is assessed	What you get
Your current hair: density, length, condition and how fine or coarse it is	An honest view of what your own hair can carry and hold
Attachment method	A suggestion between clip-in, tape, keratin-bond (sinetti) or fibre for braids, based on your hair and lifestyle
Shade matching	The closest single shade or blend of shades to your natural or coloured hair
Length and amount	How many grams or wefts you realistically need for a seamless, balanced result
Maintenance and budget	Upkeep intervals and the ongoing cost so there are no surprises later

Matching the method to your hair and life

Method choice is where the consultation earns its keep, because each option suits a different situation:

Clip-ins are fully removable and put in and taken out yourself, which suits occasional volume, events or anyone not ready for a permanent commitment.
Tape extensions sit flat and are re-maintained roughly every 6-8 weeks as your own hair grows out.
Keratin-bond (sinetti) gives long-lasting, individual strands and is typically moved up every 2-3 months.
Fibre for braids is a synthetic option for braided styles; unlike Remy human hair, synthetic fibre will not tolerate high heat from styling tools.

Because your hair grows around 1-1.5 cm per month, the consultant can also set realistic expectations for how often you will return for maintenance, and factor that into the budget guidance.

How to prepare and how to request it

A good consultation depends almost entirely on the photos you provide, so it is worth a few minutes of care:

Take clear photos of your hair in natural daylight, not under yellow indoor lighting, so the shade reads accurately.
Include shots from the front and the back, and ideally a side view, with hair down and dry.
Know your goal: the length you want to reach and the overall look you are aiming for, plus any reference images.
Mention whether your hair is coloured, heat-styled often, or prone to fine strands at the temples.

To request the consultation, contact ConnectHair through the website and send your photos and goal. Once the recommendation is set, you can order the matching hair extensions and ConnectHair ships them throughout Finland in 1-4 business days.

Getting the most from your recommendation

The advice you receive is only as good as the aftercare that follows it. Whichever method you choose, plan to use a sulfate-free shampoo and a heat protectant, sleep on a satin pillowcase to cut friction, and brush gently from the ends upward. Keeping to the maintenance interval for your method keeps the result looking natural and protects both the extensions and your own hair between visits.
