Whether you’re adding volume, length, or both, professionally applied hair extensions can completely transform your look. At Cruz Hairworks in Whitley Bay, we specialise in natural-looking extensions that blend seamlessly with your own hair—enhancing your confidence and giving you more styling options than ever before.

What Are Hair Extensions?

Hair extensions are professionally applied strands of real or high-quality synthetic hair that are added to your natural hair to create additional volume, length, or texture. At Cruz Hairworks, we offer a range of premium methods to suit different hair types, lifestyles, and desired results.

We carefully match the colour, tone, and texture of the extensions to your natural hair for an undetectable blend and long-lasting comfort. Whether you're looking for a subtle boost or a full transformation, our experienced stylists will help you choose the right type and fit for your goals.

More information

Who Are Hair Extensions For?

Hair extensions are ideal for women who want to:

  • Add natural volume and fullness
  • Increase length without waiting for hair to grow
  • Fill in thinner areas around the hairline or crown
  • Enhance styling options for everyday or special occasions

Many of our clients in Whitley Bay, North Shields, and the surrounding areas choose extensions to support thinning hair, experiment with new styles, or simply enjoy a more luxurious, fuller look.

They’re suitable for most hair types, though a consultation is essential to assess suitability and recommend the most appropriate method for your needs.

What to Expect During Your Appointment

Your journey begins with a full consultation to assess your hair, discuss your goals, and choose the right extension method, length, and colour match. We’ll explain how the process works and answer any questions you have about maintenance, styling, and aftercare.

The fitting appointment varies in length depending on the method and amount of hair being applied—it typically takes between 1.5 to 3 hours. Once fitted, your extensions will be trimmed and blended to ensure a natural-looking finish that sits perfectly with your own hair.

We’ll also provide tailored aftercare advice to help you keep your extensions looking and feeling their best between visits.

How Often Should You Maintain Them?

Maintenance depends on the method used, but most clients return every 6 to 8 weeks for adjustments or refits. Proper home care, including recommended brushing and product use, will also extend the life of your extensions.
