Frequently Asked Questions
Everything Manhattan clients ask before their first visit.
Where is the best place for hair extensions in Manhattan?
The best place for hair extensions in Manhattan is a studio that specializes in extensions instead of treating them as a side service. ShineTress focuses specifically on microlink, tape-in, fusion keratin, clip-in, and micro weft methods from its Manhattan location on West 27th Street.
How much do hair extensions cost in Manhattan?
Pricing depends on the extension method, the amount of hair needed, your target length and volume, and whether you want a temporary or longer-wear result. The most accurate way to price your look is to schedule a consultation based on your own hair.
How long do hair extensions last?
Clip-ins are temporary, microlinks generally last around three to four months, micro weft extensions are usually adjusted every four to six weeks and redone around three months, and fusion keratin extensions can last about four to six months with proper care.
Do you offer hair extensions near Penn Station or Times Square?
Yes. The studio is located on West 27th Street in Manhattan, making it convenient for clients coming from Penn Station, Chelsea, the Garment District, Midtown, Times Square, and nearby neighborhoods.
Do you use real human hair?
Yes. ShineTress uses 100% human hair and also offers premium single-donor hair on request for clients who want a more customized match.
Which extension method is best for first-time clients?
That depends on your hair density, texture, maintenance preference, and goals. Many first-time clients consider tape-ins for a flat, undetectable look or microlinks for a glue-free, heat-free option, but the best choice should be decided during a consultation.
