Hair Extensions
At Prep Hair, we offer a variety of hair extension services to help you achieve the hair of your dreams. Whether you're looking for added length, volume, or chemical free highlights, we've got you covered!
Our team of hair extension specialists are professionally trained and certified in all the techniques we provide, so you can trust you're in expert hands.
We currently offer K-Tip, Beaded Row Weft, I-Tip, Nano Link, Tape-In, Clip-In and V-Light methods. Keep reading to learn more about each method, and click below to book a consultation and find out which technique is right for you!
Keratin Bond (K-Tip)
K-Tip extensions add length, volume, and dimension, while allowing for natural movement and versatile styling. Keratin bonds are gently heated and fused to your natural hair, using an equal density application method. The result is long-lasting extensions with a discreet finish. K-Tips can be worn for 3 - 6 months, depending on your natural hair and maintenance routine. We recommend this method to clients looking to add length or volume in specific areas, but K-Tips are highly customizable and can be used for a full head installation.
A K-Tip installation costs $150 per hour. This does not include the cost of hair.
Beaded Row Weft
For those who crave voluminous hair, beaded row wefts are the answer. Wefts of hair are sewn onto rows that are created by small silicone beads, resulting in a seamless, lightweight finish. Wefts can be used for up to 12 months, depending on how well you care for them. A move-up appointment is required 6 - 8 weeks after installation, and a removal and re-install appointment is required 6 - 8 weeks after the move-up. We recommend this method to clients looking to add dramatic volume and length.
A Beaded Row Weft installation costs $350 per 2 rows of hair. On average, most clients will get 2 rows of hair installed. This does not include the cost of hair.
I-Tip / Nano Link
I-Tips and Nano Links are attached with tiny beads, using an equal density application method that allows for the same flexibility and movement that K-Tips offer, but without the use of heat or adhesives. I-Tip and Nano Link hair can be worn for 8 - 12 months, depending on how you care for it. Maintenance appointments are required every 6 - 8 weeks. We recommend these methods to clients looking to add adhesive-free length and volume with natural movement.
I-Tip and Nano Link installations cost $150 per hour. This does not include the cost of hair.
Tape-In
Tape-In extensions are a semi-permanent option for adding length and volume with an invisible finish. Ultra-thin wefts are attached at the scalp using adhesive strips that lay flat against the head. Tape-Ins are quick to install and easy to maintain. With proper care, they can be reused several times and can be worn for up to 2 months before a removal and re-install is needed. We recommend this method to clients looking for maximum impact, with minimum effort.
A Tape-In installation costs $100 per pack. On average, most clients will get 4 to 5 packs installed. This does not include the cost of hair.
Clip-In
Clip-In extensions are a temporary alternative that allow you to add volume and length without the commitment of permanent hair extensions. Thin wefts of hair are secured flat against the head with small clips. Simply clip them in for special occasions, nights out, or to elevate your day-to-day style. With proper care, Clip-Ins can last for several years. During a consultation, your stylist will colour match your hair with extension swatches. We recommend this method to clients looking for flexibility and an instant transformation.
A Clip-In installation costs $150 and includes a demonstration of proper placement, a haircut to ensure a seamless blend with your natural hair, and a style. This does not include the cost of hair.
V-Light
V-Light extensions are undetectable, and offer ultra lightweight volume and length. The strand to strand application method means that extensions can be installed on areas of the head where other methods typically can't, such as the hairline and root at the top of the head. A UV light and adhesive is used to bond individual strands of hair together. V-Light extensions can be worn for 1 - 2 months, depending on your natural hair and maintenance routine. We recommend this method to clients with fine or thinning hair, looking to fill in sparse areas. It's best paired with other methods for a completely customized look.
A V-Light installation costs $150 per hour. This does not include the cost of hair.

"So worth the investment."
Absolutely blown away with the quality of my hair colour. Ashley is amazing at what she does. I've never had my blonde looking so perfect and seamless. Got my extensions yesterday and OMG out of this world. So worth the investment.
"Absolutely fantastic stylist!"
Robin was absolutely amazing! I had a hair extension maintenance appointment, from the time I reached out to Prep to when she booked me in everything was smooth sailing. She listened to how I wanted my hair styled, how I wanted the extensions reinstalled, everything!
"It was a wonderful experience."
Had hair extensions put in by Paige and I couldn’t be more happier. She explained everything before having it done, during and then the aftercare. Was one of the best experiences I’ve had at a salon. I would highly recommend Paige at Prep Hair.
