How Much Can Stylists Really Make Adding Hair Extensions to Their Menu?

This guide sticks to the math — what you can realistically charge, how long the work takes, and what changes after you add Minx Magic Weft™ to your menu.

Pricing a Full Install

Most certified extension stylists in the U.S. charge between $800 and $2,500 for a full install. Major-city markets trend toward the upper end.

Pricing Move-Ups

Move-ups typically run $150 to $400 and take significantly less time than the original install.

Time Per Service

A trained stylist completes a Minx Magic Weft™ install in about 30 minutes. Move-ups are even faster.

A Realistic Weekly Picture

Two full installs per week plus a steady book of move-ups adds meaningful five-figure revenue per year on top of existing income.

The Retail Attach

Extension clients buy aftercare — sulfate-free shampoo, brushes, silk pillowcases, leave-in conditioner. Many stylists see retail revenue double once extensions become a regular part of the menu.

What Changes After Certification

A method you can stand behind, a price point you can defend, and the confidence to book the service. The Minx Magic Weft™ certification course also includes business setup — pricing scripts, consultation flow, and aftercare conversations.

Recouping Your Investment

Most stylists recoup the cost of Minx Magic Weft™ certification inside three to five paid installs.
