Natural Beaded Row Extensions (NBR) vs Hand Tied Weft Extensions at Monaco Salon Tampa

Yes. As long as your natural hair is at least 3-4 inches long, we can blend extensions seamlessly. Depending on your current layers and density, we may recommend one method over another (such as K-Tips for very short styles) to ensure the attachments remain invisible. We can determine the perfect plan during your free consultation.

Clarification: We offer the Method, not the Brand. "NBR" (Natural Beaded Rows) is both a specific brand of hair and an installation technique. At Monaco Salon, we utilize the Natural Beaded Row method to install our premium Genius Wefts because it offers superior comfort and blending. However, we do not sell the NBR brand of hair. We prefer to source from luxury suppliers like Great Lengths and HairDreams.

Learn about the differences between natural beaded row extensions and Monaco wefts.

Absolutely. We rarely take a single color out of a box and apply it. We order the closest premium match and then custom-blend, highlight, or root-shadow the extensions to ensure they mimic the dimension and tone of your natural hair perfectly.

Whether or not we can re-install hair will depend on a few factors, as our priority is always to protect the integrity of your hair and provide you with a high quality service. Generally speaking, we can re-install hair from any company as long as it is in good condition, 100% human hair, and appropriate for the methods we use.

Here are some difference scenarios to clarify our policy on reinstalling hair.

If your hair was installed at Monaco Salon and we're doing a maintenance appointment on your hand-tied wefts, or hair topper, YES we reuse and re-install the hair as often as we can over the life expectancy of the hair. We will let you know when your hair is getting close to the point where it needs to be replaced.

Suppose you took a break from your extensions and you want to bring us hair purchased at Monaco Salon, and within one of our installation methods, YES we can reinstall the hair provided that it is still in good shape.

What if you come to us for maintenance or move up for extensions that were purchased and installed somewhere else, will we reinstall the hair? If the hair is within one of our installation methods and within one of the specific brands we work with (Great Lengths, Bellami, Hair Dreams etc) YES we can reinstall the hair provided that it is still in good shape.

Will we install hair you purchased elsewhere and have worn, and it is within one of our installation methods and within one of the specific brands we work with (Great Lengths, Bellami, and Hair dreams), YES we can reinstall the hair provided that it is still in good shape

Will we re-install keratin bond extensions? NO, once removed, keratin bond hair cannot be reapplied, regardless of where you purchased them or which brand they are. Keratin bond extensions are a one time use item and can not be reinstalled once removed.

Generally, Yes. Our priority is maintaining the integrity of your hair. We can re-install hair extensions—even if purchased at another salon—provided they meet three criteria:

1. They are 100% Human Hair.
2. They are in excellent condition.
3. They are compatible with our methods and brands (specifically Great Lengths, Bellami, HairDreams, and Zora Hair).

Important Policy on Keratin Bonds: No. Once removed, Keratin Bond extensions cannot be re-applied. They are a single-use luxury method. This applies regardless of where they were purchased.

No. While we are happy to install outside hair that meets our quality standards, we will not color, dye, or lighten any extensions not purchased directly through Monaco Salon.

Here is why we strictly enforce this policy:

• Unknown Quality: Not all hair labeled "100% Human" is true to grade. Lower-quality hair can melt or break when exposed to professional color.
• Unknown Chemical History: We cannot know if the hair was previously bleached or coated with silicone. Even small chemical differences can cause the hair to turn unexpected colors (like pink or green) during processing.
• Protecting Your Investment: Coloring extensions is high-risk. By only coloring hair we supply, we guarantee the results and protect you from ruining expensive hair.

Note: If you have extensions installed at Monaco Salon, they must only be altered by our stylists. If another salon cuts or colors them, your Monaco warranty is voided.

Home care is simple once you know the basics. The most important rules are to brush gently from ends to root, use sulfate-free professional products (like the ones in your Gift Set), and never sleep with wet hair. We will provide you with a full guide during your appointment.

Pricing is fully customized based on the look you want to achieve. Costs can range from a few hundred dollars for volume-only fills to over $1,000 for full-lengthening transformations. Factors include the brand chosen, the method (Weft vs. K-Tip), and the amount of hair required. Because every guest is unique, we provide an exact, transparent quote during your Free Consultation.
