Follow @societesalons on InstagramFollow @societesalonsI’ve been doing hair for 25 years, and I started educating associates about 15 years ago. Teaching has shaped the artist I am and the salon we’ve built. I believe growing as an artist and growing as a leader go hand in hand, and that every great team is built on great education.

Every head of hair is different, so extensions should always start with an expert. Your method, placement, color, and amount of hair are chosen for you. Here’s everything you want to know about each method.
Density, texture, and the health of your natural hair decide which method is safe for you.
We custom-blend shades so the extensions disappear into your own color.
Workouts, ponytails, swimming, and how much time you want to spend styling all matter.
Length, volume, or both. Sometimes it’s simply fuller, healthier-looking hair.
| Method | Best for | How it’s attached | Wear | Upkeep |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| K-Tips | Fine hair, ponytails, updos | Tiny keratin bonds, strand by strand | About 3–4 months | Removal and new install |
| Tape-Ins | Fine to medium hair, a flat finish | Thin panels that lie flat to the head | Hair reused at each re-tape | Re-tape every 6–8 weeks |
| Tape-In Wefts | Fullness with a fast, flat install | Thin wefts with a tape base, placed in rows | Hair reused at each move-up | Move-up every 6–8 weeks |
| Sew-In Wefts | Volume and length, medium to thick hair | A weft sewn onto a discreet beaded row, no heat or glue | Hair reused at each move-up | Move-up every 6–8 weeks |
We look at your hair, talk about the look you want, and choose the right method together.
Your hair is matched and blended so the extensions disappear into your own.
Placed, then cut and layered so everything moves like one head of hair.
Regular move-ups keep them comfortable and your natural hair healthy.
The damage people worry about comes from the wrong method, poor placement, or skipped maintenance. We choose the method for your hair type, place each row with care, and check the health of your natural hair at every appointment.
Not when they’re done right. Every install is color-matched, cut, and blended so your extensions move with your own hair. The goal is for people to notice how good your hair looks, not that you’re wearing extensions.
No. Many clients want fullness and a little length while keeping a shorter, natural style. Extensions can simply make your own hair look like the best version of itself.
It depends on the method, the length, and how much hair you need. You’ll get a real quote at your consultation, along with what maintenance will cost, so there are no surprises.
Gentle, sulfate-free products, a soft brush, and a loose braid for sleeping go a long way. You’ll leave your install with a care routine made for your method.
We created 561 because we kept seeing the same problems with other hair: color fading and shedding. We named it after home, Palm Beach County’s 561, and it’s now the hair behind our signature hidden wefts, made to blend, move, and wear like your own.
“My favorite part is changing someone’s whole outlook on their day, their week, or their month, just by the way they see themselves in the mirror.”
Every extension client starts with a consultation, so we can design your custom plan. Book online or call the salon.
