Thinking about investing in hair extensions, but wondering how they work, how long they last, or how much they cost? At Vamp Salon Extension Studio in Brentwood, CA, we specialize in NBR™ (Natural Beaded Row) Hair Extensions—a premium, damage-free method designed to give you luxurious volume and length without compromising the health of your natural hair. Below, we answer the top “how” questions about extensions and show you why Vamp Salon is the Bay Area’s go-to for expert installs, maintenance, and styling support.
How Do Hair Extensions Work?
NBR™ hair extensions are installed by creating rows of tiny beads that are gently attached to your natural hair. Hand-tied wefts of high-quality human hair are then sewn onto these beads, creating a lightweight, seamless finish that looks and feels incredibly natural.
Unlike tape-ins or clip-ins, NBR™ extensions don’t rely on adhesive or heat, which means there’s less stress on your natural hair and a more comfortable, breathable wear over time. This method is ideal for women looking for long-term wear with easy maintenance.

How Long Do Hair Extensions Last?
With the right care, your NBR™ hair extensions can last up to 6 to 9 months. Most clients refresh the hair around the 4–6 month mark, especially if they use heat tools or swim frequently. Your rows will need to be professionally “moved up” every 6–8 weeks to account for natural hair growth and maintain the seamless blend.
