Most salons offer free tape extension consultations. This service should include an in-depth dive into your hair type, history and lifestyle, alongside a colour match for your desired new look.

However, it can be common practice for salons to ask for a refundable deposit for consultations. This is just so salons do not miss out on appointments with other clients if you do not attend.

When you decide to invest in tape extensions, you will be expected to cover the cost of the hair, alongside the cost of the installation. This is an example of how much North tape extensions could cost in a salon, per pot of hair*:

*Please note, this is only a guide. Salons have many costs and will price all their services differently. Some salons may bundle the hair and installation costs together.

As a general rule of thumb, salons charge around £50-£100 per pack of tape extensions installed.However, that is only a rule of thumb. All salons charge their services differently and some may bundle the cost of the hair and initial installation together. Other price factors may include; salon area/competition, overhead costs, delivery charges and stylist experience.

As you’ll learn during your in-depth consultation, you may need extra help with the maintenance and upkeep of your tape extensions. One maintenance appointment very common for tape wearers is weekly wash and blowdries.

What your chosen salon charges for wash and blowdries is completely dependent on them and the area it is based in.

If you decide to take a break from or done with tapes, they will need to be professionally removed - we do not recommend removing them yourself, as this can cause hair damage and breakage. Salons charge upwards of £25 as a whole charge for tape removal, but this wholly depends on your salon.

When you book in for your 6 to 8 week refit, you will often be charged a combination of the removal and install charge. For example, this could look like: £25 removal charge + £50 refit charge (1 pack of tapes) = £75.
