How is the price of extensions calculated?

• The price of hair extensions depends on the type of extension you prefer. Tapes, for example, are often significantly cheaper than bonds. 
• The price also depends on how many strands you need. In one pack of tape-in extensions from Rubin Extensions There are 10 strands. For hair thickening, you only need one pack, but for hair extensions, you'll need two or three packs, depending on how thick your natural hair is. 
• The cost of extensions is essentially the same for short or long hair. However, if you want very long hair extensions, they will be a bit more expensive. 
• With clip-in extensions, you get everything you need in one package. They're easy to apply and, with proper care, will last forever!
• Another criterion is the quality of the hair extension or hair thickening. Rubin Extensions We distinguish between three quality levels. All our extensions are Remy quality, which means that the outer cuticle layer of each individual hair points in the same direction. This is important, as otherwise the hair would tangle very quickly. Therefore, our extensions are hand-picked to ensure that every single hair points in the correct direction. Rubin Extensions In Switzerland there are hair extensions made of Indian, Slavic and Russian human hair. 

Indian hair

Let us start with the first quality level: the Indian human hair. Indian hair It is similar to European hair in its structure and shape and is considered to be one of the best hair qualities in the world. Usually, Indian human hair brown or Jet Black in its original condition. Therefore, we gently bleach it and then dye it in the desired shade. Finally, we sort all the hair by length and process it into high-quality clip-in and tape-in extensions.

Slavic hair

Hair extension with Slavic human hair is a must-have for hair fashion enthusiasts! Slavic human hair It is almost identical to European hair and a very valuable raw material that is popular with hairdressers and hair fashion enthusiasts alike. Models and celebrities often wear hair extensions made of Slavic human hair because it feels exactly like your own hair and can be styled in the same way.

Russian hair

Russian human hair is considered the most vital in the world and is gently adjusted to the desired color tone using eco-tinting. Russian human hair Extensions are the Rolls-Royce of hair extensions – the color and texture are already identical to European hair, so this type of hair extension only needs to be customized to the desired shade. Thanks to the gentle processing, this hair is particularly durable and remains vibrant and healthy. Our great international success is partly due to the quality of Russian hair, as only we can produce this high-quality, luxurious quality.

The price for extensions is as follows:

• Hair extensions are more expensive than hair thickening because more strands are required. 
• Permanent hair extensions are more expensive than temporary ones.
• The quality of the hair extensions and the origin of the hair cause large differences in prices.
• The costs for the hairdresser must be taken into account, as the amount of work involved can be very high.

Which type of hair extension is the most expensive?

Keratin Bonding Extensions

The most used and best known model among the Hair Extensions Hair extensions are the extension and thickening with Bonding extensions. This is also the most expensive option, costing around 300 euros for a complete extension, and for two good reasons:

1. The production and application 

The production and installation of these hair extensions is very complex. The special keratin adhesive must be liquefied with heat or ultrasound for each individual strand. This can take up to four hours. However, thanks to the very thin and almost invisible connections, this type of hair extension also offers maximum styling freedom. If applied correctly, even a high ponytail or bun can be worn without any problems. 

1. The wearing time

Keratin bonded extensions offer the longest wear time of all extensions. With proper care and the right products, you can wear your hair extensions for up to six months. Keratin bonds can also be reused and raised once they've grown out. However, replacing the adhesive is relatively time-consuming, and it's often cheaper to buy new strands. 

Microring Extensions 

Slightly cheaper than keratin bonding extensions are Microring extensions. For a complete extension, you pay a maximum of 280 euros. This makes them exactly 20 euros cheaper than bondings. Microrings, like bondings, are almost invisible in the hair. They are applied without any heat or glue. However, if you are allergic to nickel, they are not suitable for you, as the rings are made of metal. Another advantage of microring extensions is that the connections do not come loose, no matter what you do to your hair. The metal rings sit securely in your hair; you can dye it, treat it with chemical products, and even go swimming with them. However, the human hair Strands themselves aren't immune to damage from harsh products. Therefore, even with microring extensions, you should make sure to keep your hair away from chlorine and salt water and care for it properly. Microring extensions can be worn almost as long as bonding extensions, but a big advantage is that they can be easily reused and they are particularly gently protect for your own hair. The rings can be replaced again and again. Therefore, good quality and care are worthwhile.

Which type of hair extension is the cheapest?

Clip-in Extensions

The cheapest hair extensions are temporary extensions such as clip-ins and hairpieces such as ponytails, bangs and flip-ins. Pure Diamonds clip-in extensions You can get them for just €59. The package includes 5 wefts with 13 clips, which is all you need to lengthen and thicken your hair. Clip-ins must be removed every night. Sleeping with them on is not recommended. However, this means they never get particularly dirty and don't need to be washed as often as permanent hair extension methods. If you do feel like washing your clip-in extensions, you can soak them in cool water in the sink with a little conditioner. This type of hair extension can last you for years if you take good care of them. 

Halo-Extensions / Flip-ins

Halo hairpieces or flip-in extensions are very similar to clip-in extensions. However, they consist of a single piece of hair, and instead of individual clips, the weft is attached to the hair with an invisible thread. This allows you to lengthen and thicken your hair with just one simple action. Depending on the color of your natural hair, you can choose between single-colored and multi-colored hairpieces. So, if you have highlights, it makes sense to choose a hairpiece that closely matches your natural hair color. These hair extensions also last forever if cared for properly. You can use the same method as with clip-in extensions.

Tape-in Extensions 

The most affordable type of permanent extensions are tape-in extensions. For around €180, you get a complete lengthening and thickening treatment. This makes this type of extension exactly €100 cheaper than microring extensions. What's more, you can even apply them at home with the help of a second person. Tape-in extensions don't require any special equipment, and the sandwich method makes them relatively easy to apply even for those new to extensions. However, the help of a friend is highly recommended for the back of the head. 

 

Why are certain products more expensive?

Since the price is determined by various factors, there are also differences between individual products. The cost is usually determined by the quality, but the number of strands required is also crucial. With good hair quality, you can enjoy your new, magnificent hair for a long time. 

Tape-in extensions are a good example, as they need to be replaced or raised after about six weeks. They are less expensive than other types of permanent hair extensions because they don't stay in the hair as long. However, if you care for them well and don't cause damage to the hair structure, you can always raise them, extending their lifespan by several months. However, the labor required will always be higher than with bonding or microrings, which can stay in the hair for up to six months. The cost of replacing the tapes is also added. 

The connection points

Extensions don't have a standardized attachment system. You can choose between several types and, depending on your preference, work with glue, metal, or even clips. However, some connections are wider than others and therefore more visible in your own hair. Because bonded extensions have very thin keratin bonds, they are almost invisible in your own hair, and even as your hair grows, your connection points will still be hidden. However, the production of these keratin plates is relatively complex, making this type of hair extension the most expensive. The length of time you wear the extension and the type of bond determine a large part of the price. 

Is it worth paying more for extensions?

Every person is unique and the way people lengthen and thicken their hair also differs very This varies from individual to individual. Therefore, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to the question of whether more expensive extensions are worth it. If you only plan to wear your extensions for one day or evening, for example, on your wedding day, then it's okay to choose a cheaper type of hair extension or hair thickening. However, if you want a longer-term change, you should choose the highest quality, and therefore usually the highest price, to enjoy your extensions for as long as possible. 

So everyone has to decide for themselves whether the higher price is worth it. 

How long does hair extension and hair thickening last?

Permanent hair extensions or hair thickening can stay in your hair for a maximum of five or six months. Your hair's natural growth and renewal cycle prevent them from lasting longer. So, if your hair grows very quickly, you may need to replace or raise your extensions sooner. 

Can hold the human hair However, long-term hair extensions last considerably longer. You can reattach them with new keratin plates, metal rings, or tapes and reattach them to your hair. Some people can reuse the same hair extensions several times this way, maximizing their lifespan. However, it's important that they aren't damaged. Good care will keep your hair looking healthy and vibrant and save you a lot of money! So always make sure you use the right care products and keep heat styling to a minimum.

How much does it cost to remove extensions?
