The cost cost of hair extensions is typically in the range of $85-$2800+. The reason why there is such a wide range in the middle is because there are many types of hair extensions. There are tape-in, fusion/keratin, weave extensions, microchain/bead extensions, clip-in extensions, etc. They cost $700-$2,800 if you want to keep them in place for a longer period of time (more than a year), and $85-$600 if you're just using them for a short period of time or for styling.

If you are new to hair extensions and don't know much about them, we suggest you choose tape-in hair extensions or clip-in hair extensions, which cost $200-$500, more expensive than these are braided hair extensions, which cost $450-$800, and microchain/bead extensions, which cost $800-$1200. ...... Of course this is only a one time cost, and different types of extensions last for different amounts of time. Of course, if you want to keep your hair extensions looking good all the time, you have to maintain them on a regular basis, and maintenance costs money.

Professional hair extensions here generally refer to wigs that need to be made in a salon, and hair extensions that cannot be completed by oneself. Hair extensions such as adhesive, clip-in extensions and stitch-bonded hair extensions all fall into this category. Stitch-bonded hair extensions can also be called "permanent hair extensions" because they are the most durable type of hair extensions.

How much are Bonded (glued) /clip-in hair extensions

Bonded (tack-on) and clip-in extensions, since the extensions come in strand-by-strand extensions, cost about the same range, usually costing another $100-$300 to the salon based on the density of your extensions. Of course, this is if you have purchased hair extensions yourself and gone to a salon to have a professional hair extension technician install them for you. The biggest difference between these two types of hair extensions is that bonded (adhesive) hair extensions last no more than one to two weeks, and clip-in extensions last the shortest and are usually worn all day and removed while sleeping.

Stitch-bonded hair extensions are the most durable. This method of hair extensions also comes in two varieties. Some people choose to put their hair up, then wear a protective hair cap, use hair curtains or hair products, and bond and braid them to the hair cap. If maintained properly, it can usually last for about 3 months.

Another method is to braid your own hair according to the direction of the hairstyle, and then sew the twist-style hair extensions to your own braids with a curved or straight blunt needle and thread.

This involves the products you want to buy. There are many places to buy hair extensions.
