Me before my hair extensions
All this while I knew there's this saloon that does braiding hair extensions in Leisure Mall, Cheras but there were no reviews on it. I tried to google to search high & low for hair extensions reviews in Kuala Lumpur but there were none and even if there is the details were insufficient.
There are a few things that you should know before you do your hair extensions. First, you need to know which type of extensions are comfortable & how long you want them to be on your head. I love the braiding type and usually braiding type of hair extensions can last up to 4 to 5 months. After a few months or as your hair grows, you can actually spot the braiding part where they attach your real hair with the extensions. It looks like some brown insects lol Yes sometimes people will ask me in shocked "what is that??" or like "OMG what's growing at your hair??" =_= To avoid this from happening, it's better to re-extend your extensions every 3 months. Its quite embarrassing to be honest. Besides this, you can always op for the glue type but I heard it's very painful. I know some of my friends prefer the clip type but it's quite fussy for someone lazy like me. Besides, I don't have the time to clip here and there.
Next, you need to ask the saloon how much issit for the particular type of hair extensions. The current one I did was in La'Belle in Leisure Mall, Cheras. It was only RM600 for 200 strands (braiding type / with colour). For black hair extensions, it's only RM500 for 200 strands. No additional charges or whatsoever unless you request for other services like permanent hair perming / rebonding etc .. they even trim your hair for free (after the extensions thou)
I remember saying that Milly's has all the colours to match your hair colour. However there are around 4 colours only in La'Belle. If it doesn't match your hair colour, you will need to dye your hair together with the hair extensions. Of course, you need to pay for it & (around RM100 to RM200 for hair colouring). Lucky they have hair extensions that matches my hair colour. Lucky bitch <3
It took them more than 3 hours to complete the 200 strands and I nearly wanna faint cuz I was quite used to Milly's. Milly's only took around 1 hour plus to take off all my hair extensions & re-extend my new bunch of hair extensions. So take your ipad2, magazines or books if you're considering to do your hair extensions here.Yes you can tie, dye, perm, straighten after having hair extensions (only the ones in La'Belle & Milly's .. the rest I don't know lol). So no worries.
After hair extensions in La'Belle
Another thing that I should highlight is that the hair extensions here are free from split ends unlike the previous ones. I think the quality of the hair extensions in La Belle is way better.
If you have further enquires, you can always drop me a message. Ciaoz!
