How Much Hair do my Clients Need?
When it comes to estimating how much hair your clients will need - is something learned with more extension installs carried out.
It also depends on whether you and your client are wanting to add thickness as well as length, or just adding colour to the hair such as a peek-a-boo highlighting effect.
It is worth noting that it’s better to have some hair left over to keep as spare whilst the customer comes in for maintenance - these can be swapped in place for broken or lost pieces of extensions once the client is on their hair extensions journey.
