Get answers to common questions about Extension Trimming.

Generally every 6–8 weeks for bonded or sewn wefts and every 8–12 weeks for lighter, longer-lasting extensions. Regular trims prevent uneven ends, promote blend, and maintain style. Your stylist will recommend timing based on wear, growth, and hair type.

No — when performed by trained stylists using proper techniques. Trimming targets ends and blending only, avoiding attachment points. Regular maintenance actually protects both natural hair and extensions by removing splits and reducing tension from uneven ends.

Yes. Our stylists will assess bond types, weft condition, and overall wear before trimming. If repairs or re-securing are needed we’ll recommend them first to ensure safety and a seamless blend. Bring any installation details if available.

Appointments typically take 30–60 minutes depending on extension type, length, and whether detangling or minor repairs are required. More complex layering or heavy installations may take longer. Your stylist will provide an estimated duration during consultation.

Lightly washed hair is fine, but avoid heavy products or oils. Clean hair makes assessment and blending easier. If needed, we can wash and detangle as part of the service—just arrive without product buildup for best results.

Trims are intended to refine and blend rather than dramatically shorten. We can remove several inches if requested, but major length changes are typically handled during a full styling session. Discuss your goals beforehand so the stylist can plan accordingly.
