Expert Salon Services and Hair Extensions in Beaverton, OR

Hair extensions are an investment that requires proper maintenance and care to ensure their longevity and protect the health of your natural hair. Move-Up Appointments: Extensions must be maintained every 6-8 weeks to prevent damage, tangling, and discomfort. Move-ups help keep the extensions secure and looking seamless. Home Care Requirements: Clients must use salon-recommended professional haircare products to ensure the health of both natural hair and extensions. Avoiding drugstore shampoos, excessive heat, and rough brushing will significantly extend the lifespan of your extensions. Brushing & Styling: Extensions should be brushed daily with an extension-safe brush to prevent matting. Avoid pulling or tugging, especially at the root. Washing Routine: It’s recommended to wash hair 1-3 times per week using sulfate-free products and to fully dry the wefts to prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to damage. Sleeping with Extensions: Always secure hair in a loose braid or ponytail before bed to minimize tangling. Using a silk pillowcase can also reduce friction and breakage. Final Sale Policy: Once purchased, extension hair is non-refundable and non-exchangeable. Every order is custom-matched to ensure the best blend for each client. Failure to follow proper maintenance can affect the longevity of your extensions and may require more frequent move-ups or replacement.

A non-refundable deposit is required to book an extension appointment with one of our stylists. If you cancel your appointment, you forfeit both your deposit and the cost of the hair. If you don’t schedule your install within 90 days, you forfeit your deposit, and your hair becomes property of Ayla Mac Hair Co. We use high-quality extension hair exclusively available to IBE stylists, meaning it can only be installed at Ayla Mac Hair Co. and will never be given to clients for self-installation or use at another salon.

Cancellations less than 24 hours or no-shows will result in a charge equal to the full amount of your scheduled service amount, plus you forfeit your deposit and hair. Arriving more than 15 minutes late to the appointment, may require rescheduling and I will not be able to accommodate your service. Cancellations due to late arrival will result in a fee equal to 50% of the services booked. The cancellation policy allows me the time to inform my standby guests of any availability, as well as keeping our scheduled filled, thus better serving everyone. ​ By booking an appointment and entering your credit card information, you authorize Ayla Mac Hair Co./Tara Mclaughlin to charge your card for agreed-upon services, purchases and any applicable cancellation fees as listed above.​

Yes! Your extensions will be custom-colored to seamlessly blend with your natural hair. I use a mix of multiple weft shades to create a perfect match. If necessary, I can also tone or color the extensions for even better integration. Since extensions do not fade like natural hair, I recommend keeping up with your regular color appointments to maintain a consistent look.

A weft is a section of hair extensions that is sewn or bonded together at the top. Invisible Bead Extensions (IBE) use hand-tied and micro wefts that are lightweight, flexible, and blend seamlessly with your natural hair. These wefts are installed using a bead-and-thread method that ensures a secure, comfortable fit without damaging your natural hair.

Regular maintenance is essential to keep your extensions looking flawless and to protect the health of your natural hair. Move-up appointments: Your extensions need to be adjusted every 6–8 weeks to prevent tension and ensure proper placement. At-home care: Brush daily with an extension-safe brush to prevent tangling. Use a sulfate-free, moisturizing shampoo and conditioner (apply conditioner from mid-length to ends, avoiding the beads). Avoid excessive heat. Always use a heat protectant when styling. Tie your hair in a loose braid or ponytail before sleeping to minimize tangling. Avoid heavy oils or products near the roots, as they can loosen the wefts. Following these guidelines will help extend the life of your extensions and keep them looking natural.

The lifespan of your extensions depends on how well you care for them. On average, hand-tied and micro wefts last 6–12 monthswith proper maintenance. Factors that affect longevity: At-home care: Using professional, sulfate-free products and avoiding excessive heat styling will extend the life of your extensions. Lifestyle: Frequent swimming, sweating, or exposure to hard water can cause faster wear. Regular maintenance: Keeping up with 6–8 week move-up appointments ensures your wefts stay in good condition and reduces shedding or tangling. If you take great care of your extensions, you may be able to reuse them for a year or longer before needing new hair.
