Hair extensions? Yorkshire

I'm in North/East/West Yorkshire haha. Well West but I can get to the others and know the area's pretty well.

Does anyone have any reccomendations for decent cheap hairdressers to do extensions?

I rang a shop at leeds market who quoted me £70 including the hair but they said that it takes 2/3 'lines' of hair, and that doesn't sound very thick to me at all... I don't want to look rubbish on my wedding day :(

I really want my long princess hair so I can have long wavey hair for my wedding, but can't afford the £300 hairdressers that I know are asking for.

Thanks :)

  • Have you thought about clip in extensions? I'm thinking about getting some so I can have wavy flowing hair.
  • Hi I'm in Manchester, in the arndale market they have stalls where you can buy a full head of hair for £25.00 (real).

    Do you want it glued in? Could you ask friends and family members to see if you know anybody who could glue them in for you? A full head of hair gets you around 6 lines and abit more.
  • I want the micro bonds or weave I think. I had glue in ones and they were rubbish for my hair, came out really soon.

    I have tried clip in and I don't like those either, plus spoke to my hairdresser and she say's clip in are harder to work with (I'm having a half-up-do aha).

    In Leeds market I can get a full set of hair for £30 but when I asked if they fit them they say yes you get about 2/3 lines, and I thought that was a bit thin!


    I love having my hair done, so I don't want to worry that family/friends would mess it up as they don't know what they're doing. I'm looking at around £100.

    I would really recommend my hairdressers who I know do them. Not cheap though. They're in Halifax called Cordelia Jones.

  • Yeah, I'm after maximum £200.. How much do they charge? And are the micro bonds?

    Give them a bell. They do a couple of different bonding things I think. I talked through it with them for mine, but ended up growing as I used to have an inverted bob. Think it was around £160 ish for full head, but good ones asseen people with them.
