Hair extensions at the Aveda Exclusive Salon by Eddine Belaid in Zurich Enge, long wavy hair
Extensions · Zurich Enge

Hair extensions in Zurich. Four ways to a result no one spots.

Great Lengths, wefts, nano or tape extensions: which method suits you depends on your hair, not on our range. We take a look and tell you honestly. Alfred-Escher-Strasse 23, two minutes from Enge station.

Why the choice matters

Not every method suits every head of hair.

Fine hair carries differently than strong hair. Anyone who does a lot of sport needs a different bond than someone who mostly wears their hair down. And anyone who has once had extensions that pulled wants one thing above all: that it does not happen again.

That is why every set of extensions here begins with a first consultation. We look at your hair, ask about your everyday life and tell you which of the four methods will hold. Sometimes the answer is that we should build up the quality of your hair first.

  • Hair structure: what your own hair can carry
  • Everyday life: sport, work, how you wear your hair
  • Goal: more length, more fullness or both
  • The care you really want to put in

The first consultation costs CHF 50 and is credited when the extensions are fitted. All our services are on the price page.

The four methods

What sets them apart, at a glance.

None of the four methods uses heat. The difference lies in the bond, in how they feel to wear and in how often you come back.

One method or combined: depending on your hair. We don’t rely on one technique for everyone. Sometimes we work with one method throughout, sometimes we combine, for example nano extensions around the hairline with wefts at the back, where volume is needed. Length, amount and placement are matched to your hair and to how you wear it.

Price

What sets the price. And why we only name it once we have seen your hair.

Extensions have no standard price, because no two heads of hair are alike. Five things decide it:

In the first consultation we plan around your budget: which hair quality and which technique suit your hair, and what can be achieved with them. You then receive a quote for your case. The first consultation costs CHF 50 and is credited when the extensions are fitted.

  • Length: how many centimetres to add
  • Hair quality and origin
  • Amount: how many strands or wefts your goal needs
  • Method: nano, wefts, Great Lengths or tapes
  • Working time for fitting, colour matching and cut
Who fits them

Practised hands, and an honest answer.

Extensions here are done by people with years of practice. Nano extensions are with Elizabeta and Maryna, wefts with Göksu and Maryna, Great Lengths with Göksu and Maryna, tape extensions with Maryna.

Hair thickening

Hair thickening for fine hair. More fullness, little pull.

With fine hair it is often not about more length but about more fullness. For this we usually work with nano extensions: the bonds are only two to three millimetres small and the weight is spread across many points. That means less pull on each strand and a gentler load on your own hair.

Whether your hair can carry thickening, and how much, we see in the first consultation.

  • For fine hair and hair with little volume
  • Small bonds, little pull on your own hair
  • Without glue, without heat, without knots

Thickening with nano extensions is done here by Elizabeta and Maryna. More about the method: nano extensions. How we thicken zone by zone, also with minis and tapes: hair thickening in Zurich.

Your own hair

Gentle on your own hair: what really matters.

What matters most for your own hair is lasting pull on individual strands. Specialists call the result traction alopecia; caught early, it is reversible.

What we watch for:

  • only as much weight as your hair can carry
  • upkeep in the rhythm of the method, so nothing pulls
  • breaks when your hair needs them
  • removal by professionals only, never yourself

The film

How it all begins, in short.

A real client, work done in our salon – and it always begins with a first consultation.

Frequently asked

Before the first consultation, a short read.

What do hair extensions cost in Zurich?

The price depends on the method, the length you want and how much hair you need. That is why we name no figure before we have seen your hair. The first consultation costs CHF 50 and is credited when the extensions are fitted; after that we tell you the price for your case. All our services are on the price page.

Which method is the gentlest?

None of the four methods uses heat. Which is gentlest for your hair depends on your hair structure: fine hair carries different bonds than strong hair. That is exactly what we clarify in the first consultation.

How long do extensions last?

Great Lengths lasts three to six months. Nano extensions are moved up every six to eight weeks; the hair stays in use and only the rings are replaced. Tape extensions are re-applied every four to six weeks. With the wefts, the hair itself is reusable.

Can you see the joins?

This is the point where craft shows. With all four methods the bonds are small enough to disappear in your own hair; what matters is where they are placed and whether the colour is right. That is why the same person does colour and extensions with us.

Can I do sport with extensions?

Tell us in the consultation how often and which sport. That is one of the points that decide the method, and we plan accordingly.

What if my hair is too damaged?

Then we tell you, and we fit nothing. Sometimes the first step is to rebuild your own hair, and the extensions follow later. That is the reason the first consultation comes before every appointment.

Can extensions be coloured?

We match the colour before fitting, so that your own hair and the extensions read as one. Whether fitted strands can be recoloured later depends on the method and the hair quality. Do not colour extensions yourself; talk to us.

Can I swim and go to the sauna with extensions?

Yes, with a little care. Avoid exposing extensions to chlorinated or salt water too often. Tie your hair up to swim, rinse it with clean water afterwards and dry it thoroughly. What applies to the sauna we discuss in the consultation, depending on the method.

Are extensions suitable for fine hair?

Often yes, with the right method. For more fullness in fine hair we usually fit nano extensions, whose bonds are only two to three millimetres small; tape extensions also suit thin hair. Whether and how much your hair can carry, we see in the first consultation.

Who removes extensions?

We do. Removal belongs in professional hands, so that no natural hair is pulled out with them. This also applies to extensions fitted elsewhere.

Do you always combine several methods?

Not always. We choose the method based on your hair. Sometimes one method is enough for the whole head, for example only wefts or only nano extensions. If hair is not the same everywhere, we combine. Around the hairline, where hair is fine and people look closely, we fit nano extensions with tiny, invisible bonds. At the back, where volume is needed, we work with wefts: plenty of fullness with few bonds. Tapes are cut to size and placed one by one where you part or pin up your hair. That way each area only carries as much weight as it can take. The result looks more natural, feels lighter and is gentler on your own hair. Whether one method is enough or we combine, we decide in the first consultation.

First a look, then a decision.
