Hair extensions can be quite expensive, with costs varying widely depending on factors like the type of extensions, the quality and material of hair, installation method, length, and volume.
Price Ranges of Hair Extensions
- Clip-in hair extensions typically cost between £89 and £330 ($100 to $350 range approximately). These are usually a one-off purchase without installation fees.
- Tape-in extensions range from about £114 to £700, with professional installation often needed, which adds to the cost.
- Permanent extensions such as weaves, fusion, or micro-links can cost between £350 and over £1000, including installation.
- Synthetic extensions are cheaper, starting as low as $20 to $60, while human hair extensions range from $70 to over $600 depending on quality and length.
Factors Influencing Cost
- Human hair extensions tend to be more expensive but offer better durability and natural appearance.
- Higher quality grades of hair (such as Remy hair, double-drawn) demand higher prices.
- Longer and thicker extensions increase cost significantly.
- Customized color or special processing can add more to the price.
In the US and UK markets in 2025, a full set of professional human hair extensions with installation can easily cost between $300 and $1000 or more, depending on these factors. Budget-friendly options start at around $100 to $200 for clip-ins or tape-ins without professional fees.
