Löshår som student i Uppsala – så tänker du kring budget - Fairwithhair

Uppsala is a student city, and a student budget is a real thing. You can have hair extensions without them eating up your entire monthly budget - but it requires you to think about the total cost instead of the price per item.

Start with clip-ons

A good clip-on set made from real hair is the most affordable way to get started. No salon appointments, no repositioning, and you only use it on the days you want to. Well cared for, it will last for several years and see you through your entire degree.

Choose quality over quantity

A smaller set in Remy hair beats a large set in cheap hair. Cheap hair tangles after a few weeks and needs to be replaced - then you have paid twice.

Calculate the cost for the whole year

If you choose an installed method, include repositioning in your budget from the start. A method with longer intervals, such as keratin, means fewer visits even if it costs more the first time.

Exam periods and hair

Stress and poor sleep show in your hair. Ideally, do not book a new installation in the middle of exam week - partly because you need the time, and partly because stressed hair is not in its best condition when we assess it.

Not sure what you need? Book a consultation - it costs you nothing to ask.
