EXTENSIONS
YOUR DREAM HAIR STARTS HERE
Want longer, thicker, fuller hair? We get it. Looking for a solution for thinning or progressive hair loss? We get that too. We're glad you're here.
Several stylists at Alder have invested in advanced education with multiple hand-tied extension methods, including IBE and More Than a Method. Instead of putting every guest into the same installation, we choose the technique that makes the most sense for your hair, your lifestyle, and your goals.
That means the best placement for comfort, a seamless color and density match, and an installation that looks natural while keeping your own hair healthy.
Our goal is simple. We want your hair to look like it woke up one day and decided to become the main character. Fuller, healthier, shinier, and so natural that people will be left wondering if it's genetics, witchcraft, or maybe you're just born with it.
EXTENSION CONSULTATIONS
If you’re curious about extensions but not sure where to start, we recommend booking a complimentary extension consultation.
During this 30-minute appointment, we will:
• Evaluate your natural hair and scalp health
• Discuss your goals for length, volume, or color
• Determine the best extension method for your lifestyle
• Color match the extension hair
• Provide a transparent quote for installation and maintenance
Hair extensions are an investment, and we believe in being upfront about pricing, maintenance, and at-home care so you know exactly what to expect.
Whether you're hoping for subtle fullness or dramatic length, our team specializes in creating natural-looking hair extensions in Kalamazoo designed to fit your life and your hair.
HAND TIED / BEADED ROW EXTENSIONS
Hand-tied extensions are one of the most popular methods for adding length, fullness, and natural dimension while keeping the hair lightweight and comfortable to wear. This method uses rows of small silicone-lined beads that are gently placed along your natural hair. Lightweight hand-tied or genius wefts are then sewn into those rows, creating a seamless result that lies flat against the scalp and blends beautifully with your natural hair.
Hand-tied extensions are a great choice for guests who want natural movement, customizable fullness, or longer hair without bulk. Because the hair can be reused, they are also a long-term extension option when maintained properly.
Typical Pricing
-
One row (including hair): $600–$800
-
Two rows (including hair): $1,000–$2,000
Move-up maintenance appointments are required every 6–8 weeks to accommodate your natural hair growth. With proper care and recommended home maintenance, extension hair can last up to one year.
If you're looking for hand-tied or beaded row hair extensions in Kalamazoo, our team will guide you through the process so you feel confident in both the result and the maintenance plan.
SCALP HEALTH & HAIR LOSS PREVENTION
Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp, so if you're noticing more shedding, thinning, or your scalp just isn't feeling its best, we'd love to help. We offer hair loss evaluations to figure out what's actually going on, because there isn't a one-size-fits-all answer. From there, we'll recommend a scalp care routine, professional treatments, and products that make sense for your hair and your goals. Think of it as giving your scalp the same attention your skin has been getting all these years.
We offer several scalp care services that are excellent add-ons to extension consults.
