Get answers to common questions about Retouch and Repair.

Most clients schedule retouch and repair every four to eight weeks depending on hair growth, extension type and color fading. Your stylist will assess wear and recommend a personalized interval to maintain seamless blending and integrity while minimizing stress on natural hair.

We match and adjust color without changing extension texture in most cases. Retouching refreshes pigment and blending; repairs use gentle methods to preserve hair strands. If you want a different shade or major textural change, we’ll discuss options and possible replacement.

Appointments typically last between 60 and 120 minutes based on repair complexity, number of extensions and color work required. Minor retouches may be quicker; extensive repairs or re-bonding take longer. Your stylist will give a time estimate during consultation.

We repair most popular extension types — tape-in, sew-in, micro-link and fusion — but suitability depends on damage and brand compatibility. Some severely compromised extensions may need replacement; we’ll inspect and recommend the safest, most effective solution for your hair.

Yes. Aftercare includes using sulfate-free shampoos, gentle brushing, and heat protection. Avoid tight styles or sleeping without proper protection, and follow our recommended products and a maintenance schedule to preserve bonds, color and extension longevity.

When performed by trained stylists, retouch and repair is safe and designed to protect natural hair. We assess scalp health and attachment points, use appropriate techniques and advise on care; if damage is present we recommend conservative repairs or replacement to prevent further harm.
