Hair extensions at Jessie Mac Beauty come in three real methods (Silk Flat Weft, Keratin Bond and Microbead), and every appointment starts with a consultation rather than a fixed package. If you're in Penrith, Mulgoa, Castlereagh or anywhere across Western Sydney, here's what actually happens from booking to walking out with your new length.
The consultation comes first
Before anything is attached, your consultation covers your natural hair's colour, texture and thickness, and the length or volume you're actually after. That's what decides which of the three real methods, Silk Flat Weft, Keratin Bond or Microbead, suits your hair, and it's also when the final price and appointment length get confirmed, since both depend on how much hair is used.
What happens during the appointment
However you get fitted, the general order is similar across all three methods: your natural hair is sectioned, and extensions are attached working from the nape upward, blending each new section in with your own hair as it goes. The exact technique, whether that's a flat weft row, an individually fused bond, or a clamped bead, depends on which method you and your stylist land on at the consultation.
How much it costs
Real prices:
- Silk Flat Weft Hair Extensions: $699 introductory offer ($300 holding deposit, $399 on the day)
- Keratin Bond Hair Extensions: from $699, 2hrs+
- Microbead (I-Tip) Hair Extensions: from $599, 1hr45min+
Keratin Bond and Microbead are starting figures, not the final cost: how much hair is actually used is what determines the real price, and that's confirmed at your consultation rather than quoted blind. Every amount is priced in our hair extensions cost guide, and the full hair extension breakdown if you want the honest difference between all three before you book.
Caring for your extensions afterwards
Whichever method you choose, our full guide to the three methods covers real aftercare guidance from the American Academy of Dermatology, and how long hair extensions last goes into wear time and upkeep.
Do you serve Mulgoa and Castlereagh?
Yes. The studio is in the Penrith area and takes bookings from across Western Sydney, including Mulgoa and Castlereagh.
Which hair extension method is right for me?
That depends on your hair and what you want out of it, which is exactly what the consultation is for. See our comparison of Silk Flat Weft, Keratin Bond and Microbead for an honest breakdown of each.
How long does an appointment take?
Keratin Bond takes about 2 hours or more and Microbead about 1 hour 45 minutes or more, depending on how much hair is being added. Your consultation confirms a realistic time for your appointment, including for Silk Flat Weft.
