What a consultation covers
A consultation begins with a close assessment of your natural hair: texture, density, scalp condition and styling goals. We explain how extensions are positioned close to the scalp by weaving, braiding or bonding and discuss whether real or synthetic hair will best meet your goals for added length and volume without overstating results.
You and the stylist also review your daily routine, commute and seasonal needs specific to Hartsdale living — for example, how winter weather or summer humidity might affect styling and maintenance. Past styles and transitions are important too; clients who have left long-term methods often find the stylist’s experience and clear guidance especially helpful.
Choosing technique and placement
Different attachment methods have different trade-offs around longevity, visibility at the scalp and upkeep. During the consultation we talk through how weaving, braiding or bonding would sit on your head, which areas need volume or length, and what placement will create the look you want while protecting existing hair.
Decisions are shaped by your hair’s condition and lifestyle: frequent commuters or professionals may prefer lower-maintenance placements, while people planning special events might choose a technique that delivers immediate impact. The goal of this meeting is to prioritize options that balance appearance, comfort and practical care.
Price, timing and next steps
The consultation fee is $50 and the appointment is 60 MINUTES. In that time we outline recommended methods, materials and a rough plan for installation and maintenance. This appointment does not include application; instead it gives a clear recommendation so you can book the appropriate follow-up service with confidence.
Demand rises seasonally — consultations peak in May prior to wedding and summer seasons, and again in October and November before holiday events — so we encourage early booking. The local Central Avenue corridor and nearby Metro-North access make scheduling around commutes and errands easy for Hartsdale and surrounding Westchester clients.
