What’s the ideal time for a bride to book in her hair extensions before the wedding day?
Book a consultation at least three to four months before the wedding. This gives us time to plan, colour-match and choose the perfect method of extensions. Most brides have their extensions fitted six to eight weeks before the big day, so they can wear them in, have a cut and blend and even try them in their trial hairstyle to ensure everything looks perfect.

How do extensions help brides achieve red-carpet-worthy styles?
Extensions add length, volume and thickness, making glamorous waves, chic updos, or cascading curls much easier to achieve. Many South Asian brides want long, voluminous hair that holds both traditional bridal looks and reception styles. Extensions provide luxurious length, thickness and shine while remaining versatile for up-dos or open styles. Brides often say they feel more confident and glamorous with extensions.

How do you ensure extensions look natural?
We work with the Gold Class Hair collection. We can pick from 25 shades in various tones, highlights and textures to suit every hair type. We often blend multiple shades for a natural, dimensional finish, with placement designed to leave the hairline and parting free for updos or intricate styles. Gold Class Hair is ethically sourced, 100 per cent Indian hair, processed gently without silicone to keep the cuticle intact. The result is extensions that look, feel and move just like natural hair – shiny, healthy and completely seamless.

How long do extensions last and how should they be cared for?
Gold Class extensions can last three to six months with the right care and many brides love wearing them on their honeymoon. Many brides come back to maintain or reuse them. Proper care is key: use sulphate-free shampoos, nourishing conditioners and detangle with the correct brush. We also offer Gold Class aftercare products designed to prolong their life. Avoid going to bed with wet hair and book regular maintenance appointments to keep extensions silky, glossy and long-lasting.

What are the different types of extensions you offer and how do you help a bride choose the right option?
We offer pre-bonded extensions, tapes, hand tied wefts and clip-ins, each with their own benefits. During the consultation, we look at the bride’s hair type, lifestyle and desired style. For example, tapes are great for quick volume, bonds are long-lasting and versatile and clip-ins are good for those who only want hair on the day. For delicate hair, we recommend tape extensions because they are lightweight, gentle and easy to remove. In some cases, our Gold Class micro-bonds can also be customised for a safe, comfortable fit. The key is tailoring the method to the client’s unique hair needs.

How can extensions help mothers of the bride who may feel self-conscious about thinning hair? Do you have options that feel age appropriate and discreet?
We have very discreet, lightweight methods that add volume without being noticeable. For finer hair, tapes or micro-bonds can work beautifully, giving mothers of the bride a confidence boost without looking “done.” We are all about natural, age-appropriate enhancement.
