Project Hair Co

Project Hair Co serves men, women and children who have fine or thinning hair. Its three Master Hair Replacement stylists, Sara, Rebekah and Sahar (Sue), work from a private suite in Suites 13, 15 and 17 at Salons by JC. Many clients find the studio through online research and word of mouth. The business says its service is Michigan's best non-surgical hair replacement, and its website shows a 4.9 rating from 74 reviews.

A visit begins with a consultation, which can be in person or by video, is free, carries no obligation, and can be booked online. The stylist looks at the client's current hair and goals, suggests options, and schedules the installation for after the hair arrives. Clients are welcome to bring inspiration photos. Hair additions are made from human hair, matched in color to the client, and cut and blended into their natural hair. Orders go to vendors when a needed hair type is not in stock.

Two main options are offered. Bonded additions are semi-permanently attached to the head for two to four weeks at a time, and the salon maintains the look during that time. Clip-in additions can be put on and taken off at home, so clients can choose a do-it-for-you service or a do-it-yourself approach. Every client gets ongoing maintenance, support and advice, plus a two-week cut-in follow-up appointment. An at-home maintenance kit is sold for $100, with $15 shipping listed. A one-time 60-minute Zoom or phone session with a Hair Replacement Expert costs $100.

Booking terms are clear. Buy Now, Pay Later is offered in person for bookings from $50 to $4,000, with approval needed before the appointment. A $25 no-show fee applies if a client does not cancel or change an appointment within 24 hours. For insurance, the business explains that insurers may call hair replacement a cranial prosthesis, advises clients to request pre-authorization under that term, and helps gather claim documents. Clients who lost hair from an auto accident injury may qualify for hair replacement and can book a free consultation.

The company runs hair replacement training at beginner, intermediate and advanced levels, with online options for self-paced learning. Its curriculum is described as unique and copyrighted, and the courses are built around stylist skills rather than one vendor's technique or product. The two-day intro course is for stylists with cutting or coloring experience and includes a manual, a quick reference flip chart, a completion certificate and a practice kit. A 90-day mentoring program and a paid apprenticeship are also offered. Stylists can apply through the careers page, and salons can host a class at their location. A Hair Replacement Educator course is listed as coming soon.

Built on the view that hair loss can weigh heavily on confidence, so the work aims to help clients feel confident again. Training is stylist-based rather than tied to a single technique or product.

Consultations and services take place in a private suite.
