Why Cedar Grove Clients Choose Us for Extensions

Most Cedar Grove clients come to us after one of three experiences: their previous extensions damaged their natural hair, they paid a lot of money for a bad color match, or they couldn't get an honest answer about which method was right for their hair type. We fix all three of those problems on day one with a free, no-pressure consultation.

Hair density and texture matter more than people realize. Cedar Grove has a wide mix of hair types in our chair (fine and straight, medium with natural wave, thick and coarse) and we adjust the install accordingly. A fine-haired client gets smaller wefts and lighter tape panels. A thicker-haired client might do better with hand-tied wefts or fusion. The honest answer comes during the consult, not after we've sold you a service.

We use 100% human Remy hair across every method we install. Remy means cuticles aligned in the same direction so the extensions don't tangle or matte. Lower-grade hair (which a lot of cheaper salons quietly use) tangles within a few weeks and looks dull no matter how much oil you put on it. Our hair holds shine and movement for the full 6 to 12 month wear cycle.

What Makes Our Extension Work Different

1. The Consultation

Before we touch your hair, we sit down with you and map out the full plan. Density goals, length goals, lifestyle questions (workouts, hair-up styles, swimming, sleep position), color match, budget, and timeline. Cedar Grove clients leave the consultation with a written quote, a method recommendation, and zero pressure to book on the spot.

2. The Blend Cut

Every install includes a custom blend cut. Without it, you'll see a line where the extension hair stops and your natural hair starts. With it, the transition is invisible. We finish the cut after the install, with the hair dry, so we can see exactly how it falls and adjust accordingly.

3. The Color Match

Our color match is free, in-person, and we'll custom-color extension hair in-studio if the stock shade isn't a perfect match to your roots, mids, and ends. Cedar Grove clients who've been wearing the same dimensional balayage or specific blonde tone for years get matched exactly so the blend reads as natural hair, not as extensions.

4. The Maintenance Plan

Extensions are a relationship, not a single service. We schedule your move-up, color refresh, and reinstall windows during your first appointment so you know what's coming. Most Cedar Grove clients come in every 6 to 8 weeks for tape-in move-ups, every 8 to 10 weeks for hand-tied move-ups, and every 4 to 6 months for full reinstalls.

Pricing for Cedar Grove Clients

The Drive from Cedar Grove to Fairfield

Cedar Grove to our Fairfield studio is about 10 to 14 minutes depending on traffic. Most clients take Pompton Avenue (Route 23) south to Bloomfield Avenue, then west to 1275 Bloomfield Ave. There's free, ample parking at the building so you're not hunting for a spot before your appointment.

Maintenance & Aftercare

Extensions only stay beautiful if they're cared for correctly. We send every Cedar Grove client home with a written aftercare plan plus the products that work for the method we installed. Here's the short version:

• Sulfate-free, pH-balanced shampoo only. We sell the ones we trust.
• No conditioner on the bonds or tape panels. Mids to ends only.
• Brush with a loop brush or a wet brush from ends up to roots, never roots down.
• Sleep with hair braided or in a low pony to prevent overnight tangling.
• Heat tools below 365°F with thermal protection on every use.
• Move-up appointment booked at the install so you don't push past the safe wear window.
