Necessary Lengths

Necessary Lengths is a Bay Village studio built around customized hair extensions and styling, with a focus on Invisible Bead Extensions. The salon aims to be a welcoming place where clients can relax through their hair transformation.

Every visit starts with a personalized consultation, and the extensions are tailored to each client's needs. New clients fill out a consultation form and sign an IBE liability waiver before their first appointment. The salon describes IBE as a patented method, says its technique keeps tension on the scalp minimal, and says the attachment points stay hidden, including in updos. According to the salon, extensions suit all hair types, including fine and thin hair.

Extensions typically last about 6 to 10 weeks before a move-up, depending on the client and their hair, and move-ups are usually booked every 6 to 8 weeks on average. Sulfate-free, extension-friendly hair products are recommended for IBE extensions.

Initial install appointments require a 50% deposit, which is non-refundable and goes toward the total at the install appointment. Install prices do not include color services. Refunds are not offered for services rendered, but if a client is dissatisfied, one complimentary redo is offered within 7 days of the original appointment, based on the initial consultation. A 24-hour notice is required for cancellations, and fees apply to late cancellations, no-shows and late arrivals. Buy Now, Pay Later financing is available through the booking platform for bookings from $50 to $4,000, with approval needed before the appointment. Bookings are made through jennybernard.glossgenius.com.

Each client begins with a personalized consultation, and extensions are tailored to their hair and goals.
