Hair extensions are not a one-size-fits-all service. At Hidden Beauty Color & Extension Bar, every extension transformation begins with an in-person consultation to ensure we select the right method, color match, length, and amount of hair for your desired result.
Unlike a standard salon appointment, hair extensions require planning and customization before installation. Your first visit is focused entirely on designing your extension experience and creating a personalized plan that fits your goals, lifestyle, and maintenance expectations.
Once your consultation is complete and your hair has been selected and purchased, we'll schedule your installation appointment and begin your transformation.
Every extension journey begins with a required in-person consultation. During this appointment, your stylist will assess your hair's density, length, condition, and overall goals to determine whether extensions are the right solution for you.
We'll discuss the look you're hoping to achieve, whether you're looking for added length, fullness, volume, or a complete transformation. Your stylist will explain the different extension methods available, review maintenance requirements, and help you choose the best option for your hair and lifestyle.
A custom color match will also be performed during this appointment to ensure a seamless blend between your natural hair and extension hair.
Once your extension plan has been finalized, your stylist will recommend the appropriate length, method, color, and amount of hair needed to achieve your desired result.
Because all extension hair is custom ordered specifically for you, payment for the hair is required before your installation appointment can be reserved. This ensures your hair is secured and available for your transformation.
After your hair order has been placed, our team will contact you to schedule your installation appointment.
Once your custom hair arrives, you'll return for your installation appointment. During this visit, your stylist will install your extensions, customize the blend, perform any necessary shaping, and style your hair so you can see the completed result.
Installation times vary depending on the method and amount of hair being installed. Your stylist will provide an estimated timeline during your consultation.
Before leaving the salon, you'll receive personalized education on how to properly care for your new extensions at home.
We'll review brushing techniques, washing recommendations, styling tips, sleeping guidelines, product recommendations, and maintenance schedules to help protect your investment and maximize the lifespan of your hair.
Our goal is for you to leave feeling confident not only in your new hair, but in your ability to maintain it between appointments.

K-Tip extensions are one of the most customizable and natural-looking extension methods available. Because each extension strand is individually applied, your installation appointment requires precision, attention to detail, and time.
On installation day, your stylist will begin by reviewing your extension plan and confirming your color match before installation begins. Each keratin tip is carefully attached to small sections of your natural hair, creating a seamless blend that allows for maximum movement and versatility.
Depending on the amount of hair being installed, your appointment may take anywhere from 3–6 hours. We recommend arriving with clean, dry hair and planning for a longer appointment so your stylist can focus on creating the best possible result.
Once the installation is complete, your stylist will customize the blend, shape the extensions, and finish with a professional style so you can see the final transformation.
Before leaving, you'll receive detailed instructions on washing, brushing, sleeping, product recommendations, and maintenance schedules to help protect both your extensions and your natural hair.
Most clients are surprised by how lightweight and comfortable K-Tips feel. While there is a short adjustment period during the first few days, the majority of clients quickly adapt and enjoy the freedom, fullness, and confidence their new hair provides.

K-Tip extensions are designed to be worn continuously and do not require move-up appointments like many beaded extension methods. Instead, you'll enjoy your extensions for approximately 16 weeks before returning for a removal and reinstallation appointment.
At your maintenance appointment, your stylist will carefully remove the existing K-Tips, assess the health of your natural hair, perform any necessary color services, and install a brand-new set of extensions. This process is typically completed during the same appointment, allowing you to leave with a fresh installation and seamless result.
Because K-Tip extensions grow out naturally with your hair, it is important not to exceed the recommended wear time. Staying on schedule helps maintain the health of your natural hair while ensuring your extensions continue to look and feel their best.

Weft extensions are one of the most popular extension methods for adding length, fullness, and volume while creating a comfortable, natural-looking result. At Hidden Beauty Color & Extension Bar, every weft installation is customized to your hair type, density, lifestyle, and desired outcome.
On installation day, your stylist will review your extension plan, confirm your color match, and prepare your hair for installation. Using a concealed bead foundation, wefts are carefully secured to create a seamless blend that lays comfortably against the scalp while providing beautiful fullness and movement.
Depending on the amount of hair being installed, your appointment may take anywhere from 2–4 hours. Once the installation is complete, your stylist will customize the blend, shape the extensions, and finish with a professional style so you can see your final result.
Before leaving, you'll receive personalized education on washing, brushing, styling, sleeping, and recommended products to help maintain both your extensions and your natural hair between appointments.
Most clients immediately notice the added fullness and versatility weft extensions provide while still feeling lightweight and comfortable enough for everyday wear.
Unlike K-Tip extensions, weft extensions require routine move-up appointments as your natural hair grows.
Most clients return every 5 –10 weeks for a maintenance appointment. During this visit, your stylist will remove the wefts, reposition the foundation closer to the scalp, and reinstall the hair to maintain a comfortable fit and natural appearance.
The extension hair itself can typically be reused for multiple move-up appointments, depending on home care, maintenance, and overall condition. Your stylist will evaluate the hair during each visit and recommend when replacement hair may be needed.
Staying on schedule with maintenance appointments is essential for protecting your natural hair, preventing unnecessary tension, and ensuring your extensions continue to look their best.

Weft extensions and I-tips must be removed after 6-8 weeks and can be reused and moved up to three times before needing new hair. Extensions are only guaranteed and strongly recommended to be removed by a professional. If removed incorrectly, it will cause damage to the natural hair. K-Tips can be worn in the hair for up to four months and should be removed by our professionals. Tape-ins can be worn 6-8 weeks, completely removed, and then reapplied. Hair can last six to eight months and reused as long as the attachment is healthy. K-tips cannot be reused.
No difference! Sometimes these terms are used interchangeably, but the term "Hand-Tied" actually refers to the type of extension hair being installed. "Beaded Wefts" is the larger extension method that Hand-Tied hair falls under. Beaded wefts are installed by placing beads in a row around the head to create a "track." The wefts are then sewn into the track of beads, creating a natural, seamless blend.
It is recommended not to lighten hair extensions as they can create unwanted tones or damaged hair. Natural hair can have partial highlights, and color touch up, and toner. Hair extensions can be toned darker as long as it’s within one shade darker. Please consult with your specialist to create a color game plan that you can commit to for four months. After that, the best practice is to select a color you can commit to while using your chosen hair extensions.
Hair extensions are an instant way to add dimensional color, length, fullness, or correct a haircut. Fine to extremely thick hair are both candidates. We believe it is about selecting the proper method to create the desired result customized according to the client’s natural density length and color. For example, suppose a client wants to change their hair color frequently, is very rough brushing and styling, or refuses to rely on their extension specialist for maintenance. In that case, they may not be a good candidate for hair extensions. We are fully transparent about maintenance. It is essential that our customers can commit and understand proper care and maintenance. We care about the integrity of the hair is our number one priority.
Please use a cap or tie your hair in a low ponytail if swimming. It’s best to dampen hair and use a leave-in conditioner on ends before swimming. In addition, we recommend shampooing and deep conditioning treatment after activity.
Hair should be shampooed two to three times a week, depending on scalp oil production. We recommend shampooing the scalp twice before conditioning mid-lengths and ends. Rinse hair longer than without extensions to ensure the product has been removed from the hair. Use professional recommended dry shampoo in between shampoo.
Use recommended wet brush starting from the ends, working your way up to the scalp. Brush gently over the extension attachment to help detangle and prevent matting. Brushing should happen before you shampoo. Never brush the hair when wet. Do not use a comb or a paddle brush as bristles or teeth can get stuck in the extensions and cause damage. To prevent matting, brush your hair twice a day.
Always brush your hair gently with your wet brush before bedtime and use a silk scrunchie to place here and a side braid or low ponytail to prevent matting. Never go to bed with damp hair. Hair must be 100% dry before sleeping.
Trina is super professional and very honest with what I was getting into with extensions. No pressure and no surprises which was awesome. She asked lots of questions about how I wear my hair and my routines so the placement wouldn't interfere with my lifestyle.
