Get answers to common questions about Extensions Maintenance.

We recommend maintenance every 6 to 8 weeks for most types; some methods may need touch-ups every 4 to 6 weeks. Your stylist will assess wear, hair growth, and attachment method to set a personalized schedule that preserves extensions and hair.

Performed correctly by trained technicians, maintenance reduces damage risk by removing tangles and easing tension. We use gentle techniques to protect the scalp and hair; if any concerns exist, we offer treatments and adjustments to minimize breakage and support healthy growth.

A standard maintenance visit usually takes 45 minutes to two hours, depending on extension method, session complexity, and any necessary repairs. We allocate extra time for detangling, track tightening, color blending, or styling to ensure a thorough, careful service.
