THE FOUR METHODS

Keratin Bonds · Handmade weft · Tape In · Nano Bonds

Most studios in Dublin apply one method and recommend that method to everyone. I apply all four, which is why every appointment starts with a conversation about your hair instead of a quote for whatever I happen to sell.

Handmade weft

Only in Dublin

The weft sewn by hand, to your measure, in your shade, then stitched onto the braid. Nothing bought ready-made, nothing cut down to fit.

Best for: fine, curly and afro hair, and the longest wear of the four.

No glue and no heat

THE DIFFERENCE

The weft nobody else sews in Dublin

You can find three of the four methods above elsewhere in the city. This one you can't, and it's worth understanding why.

01 / 04

Almost every weft fitted in Ireland arrives ready-made. A machine sews the hair into a thick weft, in a standard width, a standard shade, for a standard head. The stylist then cuts it down to fit you, and the cut edge starts shedding from the first wash.

02 / 04

I do it the other way round. I measure your head, blend your shade with the hair I keep in the studio and sew the weft by hand, one small piece at a time. That's [CONFIRMAR: X] hours of work per head, before you sit in the chair.

03 / 04

What comes out is a weft about a third as thick as a machine weft. Fine enough to disappear in fine hair. Light enough to sit flat all day. Made to your width, with no loose edge to fray.

04 / 04

That's why I'm doing something in Dublin that nobody else does. A handmade weft can't be ordered. It has to be made.

COMPARISON

Choose the best method for your hair

Keratin bonds, handmade weft, tape in and nano bonds: I work with all of them, so the recommendation is made for your hair. Sometimes it's the cheapest method.

RESULTS

Find your texture first, then decide

Extensions don't behave the same on straight, wavy, curly and afro hair. That's why this gallery isn't sorted by the prettiest photo but by texture, so you can look at hair that behaves like yours before spending anything.

12 months of hair

One application instead of four a year. From the first message to the last maintenance, what happens and when.

Texture, density and the length you want, with the method chosen together. I set the shade by comparing it with the hair I keep in the studio. You leave with a written quote, and nothing is ordered before you approve it.

The application isn't the end of the service. It's the start of it.

FAQ

Hair extensions in Dublin: what everyone asks

The eight questions that land in my WhatsApp every week, answered the way I answer them in the chair.

Sâmila in the studio, portrait
WHO ANSWERS Sâmila Ramana
Which method is right for me?

It depends on your density, your texture and your routine. Fine hair and sensitive scalps do best with nano bonds or the handmade weft. Curly and afro hair do best with the handmade weft. Keratin bonds suit anyone who wants full movement without a weft. Tape in suits a quick change or a first try. I apply all four, so the answer isn't decided in advance.

How much do hair extensions cost in Dublin?

The full package, with 100% Brazilian human hair and application, is between €[1,000] and €[1,500], and the method you choose moves the price within that range. The final price depends on length and your density. You get a written quote at the appointment, before anything is ordered.

Will extensions damage my natural hair?

It depends on the method and the maintenance, and anyone who answers with a flat no is selling. The handmade weft and nano bonds use no heat and no adhesive, so nothing sticks to your hair. Keratin bonds are sealed with heat and tape in uses adhesive, both safe when fitted and removed properly, both unforgiving if you skip maintenance. I choose the method by what your hair can handle, and I tell you straight when it can't handle one of them.

Do you do keratin bonds, tape in and nano bonds as well?

All four, in the same studio, with the same person. That's unusual in Dublin, where most people train in one method and apply it to everyone. It's also why every appointment starts with us deciding together on the best treatment: choosing the wrong method costs a lot more.

How long does the handmade weft last?

The hair lasts up to [12] months following the maintenance routine, because it's 100% human and can be reused. The application moves up and is refitted every [CONFIRMAR] weeks as your hair grows. The other three methods have their own interval, and it's in the comparison table above.

Will it look natural on curly or afro hair?

It will, and that's exactly where the handmade weft pays for itself. The weft is fine enough to sit flat at any density, and I choose the hair to follow your curl pattern, not a swatch card. The gallery filters by texture and method, so you can see your hair type in the method you're considering before you book.

Do you have my colour?

Shades are blended for each client, not kept as fixed stock, so the honest answer is that it's decided at the appointment. Come with your hair as it is today, ideally in natural light, and I'll compare it with what I have in the studio and answer the same day.

Where are you based?
