Hand-tied wefts
Thin, lightweight rows are hand-sewn into a track of your own hair. They lie flat, move naturally, and add volume without the bulk or pulling of older methods. Ideal for fine to medium hair that needs fullness as well as length.

Hair Extensions in Philadelphia
Natural length and volume, blended seamlessly.
Salon Maryam offers natural-looking hair extensions in Philadelphia, placed by an experienced specialist in our Chestnut Hill studio on Germantown Avenue. We match color, texture, and density so your added length and volume blend with your own hair — no visible tracks, no damage.
Hair extensions are one of the fastest ways to transform your look, but only when they're done right. Poorly matched or badly installed extensions are obvious and can stress your natural hair. At Salon Maryam, every set is fitted to your hair type, head shape, and lifestyle, so the result moves, feels, and grows out naturally.
Methods
Extension methods we offer
Tape-in extensions
Pre-taped wefts are applied in thin sandwiched sections close to the scalp. They're fast to install, comfortable to sleep and work out in, and can be removed and reused across several move-ups — a lower-maintenance option.
K-tip extensions
Small, individually bonded strands give the most seamless, customizable blend. Because each piece is placed by hand, K-tips work beautifully for adding subtle length, filling gaps, or building density exactly where you want it.
Seamless blend
Color-matched and custom-blended
Great extensions are invisible. Every install begins with a color consultation, where we either match your extensions to your existing shade or color them to integrate with a fresh balayage or highlight. We blend across multiple tones rather than using one flat color, so the finished look reads as one natural head of hair in any light.
What to expect
Your consultation and fitting
Your first appointment starts with a consultation to assess your hair density, condition, and goals, and to choose the right method for you. From there we color-match, section, and install, then cut and style everything together so it blends from day one. We'll tell you up front how long the appointment runs, what it costs, and what your maintenance schedule looks like — no surprises.
Aftercare
Caring for your hair extensions
Extensions look their best with a little upkeep. Plan on a move-up appointment roughly every 6 to 8 weeks, depending on your method and how fast your hair grows. At home, use a sulfate-free shampoo, brush gently with a loop or soft-bristle brush, and dry your roots before bed. We'll send you home with a simple routine and recommend products suited to your extensions so they stay soft and last.

Questions
Hair extensions in Philadelphia — FAQs
How long do hair extensions last?
With proper care, hand-tied and K-tip extensions typically last several months before the hair itself needs replacing, with move-ups every 6 to 8 weeks. Tape-ins are reusable through multiple move-ups.
Do hair extensions damage your natural hair?
Not when applied and maintained correctly. The right method, a proper installation, and on-schedule move-ups protect your natural strands. Damage usually comes from extensions left in too long or installed too heavy.
How much do hair extensions cost in Philadelphia?
Pricing depends on method, the length and amount of hair, and how full you want the result. We give you an exact quote at your consultation.
How often do I need maintenance?
Most clients come in every 6 to 8 weeks for a move-up, where the extensions are repositioned as your hair grows.
