When calling to ask about extensions a few things you need to know:

1. The person you are calling has no idea what your hair looks like, therefore it is almost impossible to quote you a price over the phone – if they do, beware!
2. Not all extensions, or stylist are created equal. There are so many different brand and different ways to apply them, what one stylist does another one might not. At the Purple Cape Salon I do 7 different kinds, I like to match up the best kind of extensions to best fit your hair and budget. So when we ask you to come in to see us, its not for a sales pitch, we really want to get you the best product and look for you.
3. You can’t expect a good hairstylist to get you in for extensions today!! its impossible for 1 they won’t have quality hair for you. You are most likely getting scraps or stuff so cheap that it won’t last you and won’t be worth your time. It at least takes a couple of days to get the hair need for your needs. And 2 a good stylist is busy. She has a full book, And will work hard to get you in as soon as possible.
4. Remember that it is an investment – sometimes a rather large investment for good extensions. Just like a good pair of shoes. But you get to wear it everyday, and you want to have your extensions look as good as possible for the money you are about to spend.

So choose wisely and don’t just call for a price quote. Call to make an appointment and check out the salon, stylist & photos. It makes a difference. Don’t just settle for cheap, look for the best. You will be glad you did.

The post Hair Extensions – What Everyone Should Know appeared first on Purple Cape Salon.

I designed The Purple Cape Salon to be the experience I like in a hair salon – small, intimate and with stylists who take time for lots of personal attention.

By taking time to get to know each client, their style, their personality, their lifestyle, their interests all contribute to how I style their hair. That’s difficult to do at a big salon where they are sometimes more focused on turning clients out quickly to cover the overhead … believe me, I’ve worked in those too!

If I know a client is getting married in six months, for example, I take that into account in determining how to style her hair today, and start gradually working our way towards her Wedding Day style, not try to force everything to happen the day before her big day! If someone is pregnant they may want to start working their way towards an easier to manage style before baby arrives so they don’t have to do drastic things to their hair when the little munchkin is here!

Those kind of insights and intimate relationships are difficult to achieve in a big salon. Not that the stylist doesn’t want to, they simply don’t have the time.

At the Purple Cape Hair Salon, we make the time to get to know every client – it has been the key to my success.
