Your Extension Consultation: What We Cover and What to Bring

Your Extension Consultation: What We Cover and What to Bring

Thinking about extensions? The consultation is your first step—and it's free! At Welcome & Wanted Hair Bar in Canton, consultations are thorough, honest, and designed to help you decide if extensions are right for you. Here's what to expect.

What We'll Discuss

Your goals:

• What are you hoping to achieve? (Length? Volume? Both?)

• What does your dream hair look like?

• Any specific styles you want to achieve?

Your lifestyle:

• How active are you?

• Do you swim frequently?

• Do you wear your hair up often?

• How much maintenance time are you willing to commit?

Your hair history:

• Any chemical treatments (color, relaxer, keratin)?

• Previous extension experiences?

• Any damage or concerns?

What We'll Examine

Your stylist will do a hands-on assessment of your natural hair before making any recommendations. This is one of the most important parts of the consultation — and it's where honesty really matters.

Hair health:

• Is your hair strong enough to support extensions?

• Do you have any thinning or breakage that needs to be addressed first?

• What's the condition of your scalp?

Hair texture and density:

• Fine, medium, or coarse strands?

• How thick or thin is your overall hair density?

• How do your strands respond to tension and weight?

Color matching:

• Can your current color be matched to extension wefts?

• Do you need a color service first to ensure a seamless blend?

• What's the best placement strategy for your hair type?

What We'll Recommend

After the assessment, your stylist will walk you through the options that are right for you. At Welcome & Wanted, we specialize in hand-tied weft extensions — a method that's lightweight, movement-friendly, and designed to last. We'll explain:

• Which extension method fits your hair type and lifestyle

• How many rows or grams you'll need to achieve your goal

• A realistic maintenance schedule (typically every 6-8 weeks)

• The investment required for your install, maintenance, and the extensions themselves

Honest is the only way we do extensions.

If extensions aren't right for your hair right now, we'll tell you. We'd rather help you get your hair healthy and ready than install extensions that won't last or could cause damage. Our goal is a result you love — not just a service sold.

What to Bring

The more prepared you are, the more we can accomplish in your consultation. Here's our recommended bring-list:

• Inspiration photos — even if they're not your exact hair type, they help us understand the vibe you're after

• Your extension history — if you've had extensions before, tell us what type, how long you wore them, and how they felt

• A clear sense of your budget — extensions are an investment, and knowing your range helps us give you honest options

• Clean, dry, unstyled hair — your natural texture tells us more than a blowout does

How Long Does a Consultation Take?

Most extension consultations at Welcome & Wanted run about 30-45 minutes. We don't rush them — this is a significant service and you deserve real information before you commit. After your consult, you'll leave with a clear plan, a quote, and a scheduled appointment if you're ready to move forward.
