How Much Should Hair Extensions Cost?
Hair extensions are one of the most profitable salon services — but only when priced correctly. The biggest mistake stylists make is not accounting for the full cost of hair, products, and their time.
Average Hair Extension Prices in 2026
- Tape-In Extensions: $200 – $600 (hair) + $150 – $300 (install)
- Sew-In / Weave: $100 – $400 (hair) + $150 – $350 (install)
- Fusion / K-Tip: $500 – $2,000+ (hair + install)
- Clip-In (retail): $100 – $500
Should Clients Supply Their Own Hair?
Many stylists allow it, but you lose a major profit center. If you source the hair, you control quality and add 30-50% markup. Offer packages that include hair for a premium experience.
