What to look for in a weave specialist
When choosing where to get extensions installed, ask about their preferred methods — sew-ins, clip-ins, tape-ins, or beaded applications each have different upkeep demands and longevity. A good specialist will discuss your hair type, goals, and maintenance routine upfront. Check whether they offer follow-up appointments for tightening and adjustments; quality weave work often requires regular maintenance every 4–8 weeks.

Getting started with extensions
If you're new to weaves, start by scheduling a consultation. Many stylists will discuss the look you want, assess your hair's current condition, and recommend the best installation method for your needs. Bring reference photos if you have them. If you've had weaves before, let your new specialist know what worked or didn't — this helps them tailor the service to your preferences.
