|---|---|---|
| Hybrid Maintenance | from $190 | 1 hr |
| Beaded Weft Move-Up | from $195 | 1 hr |

Studio Chique also lists removals separately, priced by method, on its full menu.
Which method to book
For a first try or special occasions, clip-ins (from $195) let you test length and volume without a long-term commitment.
For a fast, flat result, tape-ins (from $335, 1 hr 30 min) are among the quickest semi-permanent installs.
To avoid glue and heat, microlinks (from $500) and beaded wefts (from $510) attach with beads.
For fine hair, ask about hand-tied wefts (from $700), which are made to sit light and flat.
For the most natural-looking movement at the hairline, K-tips are often the choice, and the menu also offers Partial K-Tips (from $548) for adding volume in fewer areas.
Budget for the whole year, not just the install
The true cost of extensions is the install plus regular move-ups, the hair itself, and eventually removal. Before you book, ask for a written estimate covering the hair, the install, and the move-up schedule recommended for your hair.
