Hair Extensions in Englewood, CO: Types, Cost & What to Expect

Studio 303 Guide to Natural-Looking Extensions

Hair extensions in Englewood, CO typically range from $300 to $900+ depending on the method, amount of hair, and desired result. The four main types include tape-in, weft, K-tip, and I-tip. Each differs in longevity, application time, and best-fit hair type. At Studio 303 on South Broadway, we offer all four using professional brands like Bellami, Babe, and Kovi Hair.

What Are Hair Extensions?

Hair extensions are additional hair pieces that are attached to your natural hair to add length, volume, texture, or color. They come in various types, colors, and textures to match your natural hair seamlessly. Whether you want to add a few inches of length for a special event or create dramatic volume for everyday wear, hair extensions offer endless possibilities.

Compare Hair Extension Methods

Method	Best For	Lasts	Maintenance
Tape-In	Fine hair	6–8 weeks	Move-up
Weft	Thick hair	8–12 weeks	Tightening
K-Tip	Most hair types	3–4 months	None during wear
I-Tip	Damage-sensitive hair	3–4 months	Move-up

Tape-In Extensions

Our most popular choice, tape-in extensions are semi-permanent and can last 6-8 weeks. They’re applied by sandwiching small sections of your natural hair between two extension pieces with medical-grade tape. This method is gentle on your hair and creates a natural, flat appearance.

Weft Extensions (Sew-In)

For clients with thicker hair, weft extensions provide long-lasting results. Your natural hair is braided into cornrows, and the weft extensions are sewn onto the braids. This method can last 8-12 weeks with proper care and offers excellent volume and length.

K-Tip Extensions (Keratin Bond)

Using keratin bonds, K-tip extensions are applied strand by strand for the most natural look. The keratin is heated and molded around your natural hair, creating a secure bond. They can last 3-4 months and allow for maximum styling flexibility.

I-Tip Extensions (Micro Link)

I-tip extensions use small metal beads or links to attach individual strands to your natural hair. No heat or chemicals are required, making this a gentle option. These extensions can last 3-4 months and are perfect for clients who want a damage-free application method.

How to Choose the Right Hair Extensions for Your Hair Type

Versatile Styling Options

With extensions, you can experiment with different hairstyles, from elegant updos to beachy waves, without waiting years for your natural hair to grow.

Color Enhancement

Add highlights, lowlights, or bold color accents without damaging your natural hair with chemicals. Extensions allow you to try trendy colors risk-free.

Damage-Free Growth

Protect your natural hair while it grows by using extensions as a styling alternative to heat tools and chemical treatments.

Choosing the Right Extensions for Your Hair Type

Fine Hair

For delicate, fine hair, we recommend tape-in extensions or I-tip extensions. These methods distribute weight evenly and won’t cause stress on your natural hair.

Thick Hair

Clients with thick hair can handle most extension types, including weft and K-tip methods that provide secure, long-lasting results.
