INTRO
The pursuit of the perfect hair embodies many of us as we strive to transform our dreams into reality. Hair extensions are becoming an increasingly popular choice and our versatile, high end products allow women to achieve this. What we find impactful is the way in which an updated, or revamped hair style can empower and liberate women.
HAIR TYPE
Hair length depends hugely on the persons height and her upper body length. For an average tall woman 18in hair reach her bra strap and 21in will come to her waist. This maybe more or less depending on how tall you are. Our standard length is 21in and we will cut it to your required length. This can be discussed and decided on the day of your appointment so no need to decide beforehand.
14 Inches – Shoulders Level
16 Inches – Above bra strap
18 Inches – Around bra strap
20 Inches – Waist length
22 Inches – Below waist
24 Inches – Over the waist

Organic Keratin Bio Bonds
Keratin is an organic protein, which causes no harm to your natural hair. Pre-bonded strands with custom made flat rectangular tips are just 0.4 by 0.8 cm. After being gently heated to approximately 160C they are rolled into rice grain micro bonds. In a matter of seconds, the keratin cools off and becomes strong again. It will remain this way for the rest of the time. Our organic keratin method is different to others. Bonds remain strong, hair will not shed or fall out and removal doesn’t require any remover – just crush with the pliers.
Application time is 2.5 to 3 hours
Removal with re-application is 3.5 to 4 hours
Removal time is around 1 hour
PROCESS
As soon as you step inside our salon, be prepared for some serious pampering with our great service from start to finish. From our caring reception team to our talented hair technicians, we invite you to indulge and enjoy your experience with Wonderful Extensions. Once you arrive for your appointment, our team will firstly go through the different types of application methods available and which hair texture/colour is the best match to your own hair.
FAQs
We use premium virgin hair selected for its softness, natural movement and durability. Our hair is available in a wide range of colours and can be reused with our Bio Bonds method.
We use high-quality Remy virgin hair, with all cuticles aligned in the same direction to minimise tangling and maintain a natural appearance.
Remy hair means the hair cuticles remain intact and aligned in one direction. This helps the hair stay smooth, soft and tangle-free for longer.
When fitted and maintained correctly, Bio Bond extensions should not damage your natural hair. We carefully assess each client’s hair and only recommend extensions when suitable.
The hair itself can last up to 12 months or longer with proper care. Maintenance appointments are typically required every 8–12 weeks.
Most clients adjust within a few days of fitting. Bio Bonds are lightweight and designed to be comfortable, even on fine hair.
No. You can wash, style, exercise and live normally with your extensions, although following our aftercare advice will help maximise their lifespan.
You need a pair of pliers which are spring and ribbed, a fine comb and a hair clip.
1. Separate a bond, secure it with hair clip.
2. With pair of pliers, such as ribbed ones from B&Q, you crush the bond 4-5 times on all lengths of it.
3. Squeeze the bond to check if it’s loose and/or soft
4. With one hand holding the roots of your hair, pull on the very end of the extension. It should slide easily. If it doesn’t repeat point 2.
5. With the comb or your finger brush the residue of keratin and untangle hair
You will notice shedding of your hair during removal. This is normal and even though the amount of hair seems excessive it is hair accumulated over 4 months. Shedding should ease in 2 days and hair will fluff up and return to its usual volume within 1-2 weeks.
Application takes between 1 to 3 hours depending on the amount of hair fitted. Refitting may take between 2 to 5 hours.
Extensions are applied through a brickwork pattern which means some hair is always extensions free. On refitting or new set application we fit extensions to previously extensions free hair allowing the other ones to rest. Thanks to this method it is safe to use extensions without any breaks.
We accept most major cards, as well as, bank transfer, Paypal and cash
To prepare your hair to have extensions installed you should freshly wash your hair with a good clarifying shampoo and no conditioner. Hair has to be fully dried and straightened. If you colour your hair we recommend doing it 2-3 weeks before fitting or after fitting takes place. This is due to the possibility of freshly coloured hair shedding some colour, which will result in incorrect colour match.
It is normal to lose some hair extensions. This is due to natural shedding. We expect for up to 15 strands to fall out within a 3 months period. They will be falling out with growing rate. i.e. first month it would be 0 to 3, second month 3 to 7 and third month 7 to 15. After 3 months, the bonds will be falling out much faster.
Consultations are mainly for colour match so the technician can order a correct shade. Since we hold all colours in stock we found that consultations are generally not necessary for clients. However, if you require one and wish to speak to us before we will be happy to arrange it.
