Hi guys,
So I'm doing my level 3 qualification within a salon and am currently deciding which units to do for it. I've always had an interest in extensions and the application of them so I'm considering taking this unit, however we do not offer it as a service in or salon at this moment in time. I have a few questions for anyone who does extensions or is just in general a geek about extensions, and some advice would be lovely 😁
- How much do the extensions cost? I would preferably like a high quality of hair to match our salon and am prepared to hear the shockingly high prices haha!
- What type of extensions do people use? I know micro loops are extremely popular nowadays, but I've heard they're not great for your hair 😔
- What type of hair would people say is best? Everyone bangs on about Remy Hair but I've read that Russian is now the way forward apparently?!
- What suppliers do people use? Do you have minimum order sizes?
- How much stock needs to be carried at any one time?
- How much should we be charging for the service? I've seen some people do it for £150 then others do it for £500+ 😳
- How long does it take for the service?
- How do you market it to clients? It would be a new service to the salon I am in so hopefully it would go down a treat in the local area 😛
- Do you guys find it easy to break even? Does it take a lot of extension services to be done to break even?!
Ahhh someone please help! Even typing all this is making my brain hurt 😣
Thankyouuuuuu xx
