House Of Hair UK offers two types of consultation.

1# An over-the-phone consultation. You will need to contact your local specialist by emailing or texting to discuss your hair application options, your specialist will always advise you according to your own reasons for wanting extensions, the best quality hair match and what application and hair is within your desired budget. You will be asked to text or email photos of your hair taken outside in daylight.

2# A Face to face consultation in a place of convenience, at this consultation you will get the opportunity to look at different types of hair, decide on your own colour match plus your specialist will be able to check your hair and advice on what methods is best suited to your hair.

The application will depend on the look you are going for and consequently how many extensions it will take to achieve that look.

On average a thickening process could take 1-2hrs and a lengthening process 1-3hrs. We will fully advise you of timings and costs when you have your initial consultation.

Provided you choose a style and colour that matches your own hair, the extensions will look totally natural and no one need ever know except you and perhaps that special someone who is allowed to run their hands through your hair. On the other hand, if you’re going for an obviously fun, funky look for a party or for just to enjoy a different buzz, then of course people will be able to tell – but only because you want them to.

This is a commonly asked question. When extensions are applied properly there is virtually no reason why they would damage your hair, and to this end, thousands of women have used extensions to grow their own hair to the desired length with no adverse effects whatsoever.

However, that is not to say everybody’s hair is suitable for extensions. At House Of Hair UK we take the safety of your hair very seriously and take every reasonable precaution to ascertain the suitability of your hair before commencing with the extensions. This includes a free consultation and free hair care information. Everybody experiences normal hair shedding, don’t worry, this is entirely natural.

You will notice on your hairbrush, whether you wear extensions or not, that you shed between 70 to 100 hairs a day – adding up to around 3,000 hairs a month or 36,000 a year. It seems a lot but on average we have at least 100,000 to 150,000 hairs on our heads alone, so this rate of growth and renewal is entirely normal.

You can shower, swim and go out in the wind and rain without having to worry. Our hair extensions perform as well on the sports field. They are so well connected to your own natural hair so will not slide out. When blow-drying and straightening your hair do not put heat at the tips as they have keratin or pre-bonded glue that will melt.
