What to Look for When Choosing a Salon
Weave work requires attention to detail and an understanding of hair texture and installation technique. Look at the salon's reviews and rating to get a sense of consistency. If the salon has an Instagram handle listed, check recent photos of their work—that's the clearest way to see their skill level. If online booking is available, that's convenient, but don't rule out a salon just because they take phone calls instead.
Before Your First Appointment
When you call or book, mention that you're looking for weaves so the salon can allocate enough time. Have a sense of what kind of weave look you want (length, texture, blend), but be open to the stylist's input—they know what works well with your hair type. Plan for installation to take a few hours. Ask about maintenance and touch-ups when you book, so you know what to expect after your appointment is done.
