How Clip-Ins Install Creates Seamless Hair in Washington

$$MultiPurposeText$$

What a professional clip-in install involves, what to bring, and how we blend extensions for a natural look.

Selecting Your Extension Hair

If you need hair for your install, we offer premium luxury extensions designed for long-term use and professional coloring. Tell us your desired length and we’ll source the right match and quality. Note that bundles are not included in the install price, so purchasing hair is a separate selection during booking or at the appointment.

Choosing length and density is a trade-off between desired volume and everyday manageability. Longer, heavier pieces add fullness but require more careful handling; in Washington’s humid summers some styles will need extra setting. Our team will advise on weight and length to suit your lifestyle and the local climate.

Placement and Blending Process

A Clip-Ins Install is a professional add-on where your clip-in extensions are expertly placed and blended to match your hair for a polished, undetectable finish. Styling is included. This is a traditional clip-in install and does not include braiding; if you want braided clip-ins, that option is available for an additional $65.

The service is intended for secure, smooth wear with natural movement and is suitable for special events or daily glam. We can install clip-ins you bring or install premium hair you purchase through the salon. Service time is 60 minutes and pricing starts at Starting at $195.

Daily Wear and Aftercare

Clip-ins are removable and give you flexibility to change looks without permanent attachment methods. Because the hair we offer is made for professional coloring, discuss any color adjustments when purchasing extensions. Our stylists will explain simple storage and handling to keep the pieces secure and comfortable between wears.

Studio Chique is located in the Langdon neighborhood with easy access from Rhode Island Ave–Brentwood and Brookland-CUA Metro stations, making early or late appointments convenient for commuters and families. Consider scheduling before or after a visit to the U.S. National Arboretum or Union Market for a relaxed self-care experience.

Bring your clip-ins if you own them or let us source premium hair — styling is included with the install. Remember the service is a traditional clip-in install (no braiding) and starts at Starting at $195; the appointment typically lasts 60 minutes.

Book a slot that fits your commute or weekend plans; we offer flexible early-morning and evening options. If you need braided clip-ins, add $65 and notify us when booking so we can allocate appropriate time and resources.
