Hair Extensions Aren’t Just for Scottsdale Anymore

Years ago, hair extensions were a service that only the “elite” clients used. In Arizona, most of these clients lived in or visited Scottsdale. BUT times have changed! Supply and demand have made it easier for everyone to access hair extensions.

Although they are still considered a “luxury service,” more and more clients are trying — and loving — them. Businesswomen, athletes, and tons of stay-at-home moms all want and deserve to feel beautiful. Now, women from all over the Valley are inquiring and booking these services.

Clients Are Coming From All Over the Valley

At Unity Salon, located inside The Beauty District of Norterra, I’m seeing more consultations and bookings every week. It’s no longer just the Scottsdale clientele. Women from north Phoenix, Mesa, Chandler, and Gilbert are adding extensions to their hair services.

I’m also booking more free consultations so clients can ask questions. This gives me the chance to recommend the best options for their hair and lifestyle.

It’s Okay to Want a Boost of Confidence

Sometimes it’s hard to rationalize getting hair extensions. I get it. As women, mothers, or wives, we can easily talk ourselves out of doing things we would love — things that give us that little “boost” of confidence.

But why don’t we invest in ourselves?

So You Ask, “Tamekia, Seriously, How Can Hair Extensions Help???”

  • Makes your morning routine faster and easier — a bun is simple and quick

  • Adds length and/or fullness to your hair

  • Helps styles last longer

  • Can reduce or eliminate heat styling on your natural hair

  • Gives you that extra boost of confidence

  • Can add dimension and color

The Honest Truth: One Small Downside

With all the great benefits, I do want to be transparent about one thing. Sometimes, your stylist might recommend taking a break from extensions. Occasionally, clients are resistant to that idea.

It’s my advice to trust your stylist and be open to a hybrid approach. That way, you get the best results while keeping your hair healthy and your lifestyle in mind.


We’re looking forward to seeing you soon! While you’re at Unity Salon, make sure to take full advantage of all the other great shops at Norterra.
