The Boost
One row. Big difference.
The Boost is perfect for adding soft fullness, subtle shape support, or gently beginning your extension journey. It includes custom-colored premium wefts, a full tension-free install, and a precision haircut to blend everything seamlessly. Whether you're filling in fragile sides or just want a little more volume through the ends, this is the quiet luxury version of “just enough.”
Starting at $1050
Seamless. Comfortable. Completely tailored to you.
The Boost is our signature one-row extension service: a custom-blended row that adds soft, believable fullness and makes your everyday hair feel effortlessly elevated. It’s ideal for first-time extension clients or anyone ready to refresh their current install with more comfort and control.
Whether you’re new to extensions or rethinking what your hair needs next, The Boost offers strategic, science-backed volume where you need it most.
We use hand-tied genius wefts, applied using the Invisible Bead Extensions® (IBE®) method—a scalp-safe, tension-free technique that prioritizes comfort and long-term hair health. If you’ve been searching for seamless extensions, concealed bead extensions, or a natural-looking way to get volume without bulky bonds or visible tracks, this might be exactly what you’ve been hoping for.
Seamless. Comfortable. Completely tailored to you.Subtle volume. Seamless blend. One row is all it takes to elevate your everyday hair—without changing the length you love.
pricing & maintenance
Because The Boost is completely customized, pricing can vary based on your density, desired result, and the amount of hair needed. Here’s a general breakdown to help you plan:
Initial Install with Hair: Starts at $1050
Maintenance (Complete Reinstall): Typically every 6–10 weeks, starting at $225+
Color Refresh or Gloss Add-On: If you’d like your natural hair colored to match your new extensions, we can absolutely include that—but it’s priced separately. (Coloring of the extensions themselves is already included.)
All pricing will be discussed transparently during your consultation.
what to expect …
The Boost begins with a consultation—either in-person or virtual—to learn more about your hair goals, lifestyle, and any past extension experience.
We keep a wide range of hair in stock, so most clients won’t need a separate appointment just for color matching. If your hair has curl, coil, or wave, we may invite you in for a quick texture match to ensure the perfect blend. In those cases, a custom order might be placed to match your texture exactly.
Every Boost install is customized based on your density, head shape, and desired finish. Whether you want an invisible root blend, enhanced face framing, or to just feel a little fuller around the ends—we’ll tailor the placement and color to match.
We can custom order any length, texture, or shade to suit your unique needs.
To create our undetectable signature finish, we custom color extensions in-house. Whether we’re working with multiple weft shades or layering tones, we blend everything by hand to ensure a one-of-a-kind result that’s seamless, soft, and tailored entirely to you.

FAQs
What kind of support do you offer after my install? We’re big believers in extension education—and we don’t leave you guessing. You’ll leave your appointment knowing exactly how to brush, wash, style, and protect your new hair. Plus, if you ever have questions between visits, we’re just a message away. Our goal is to make sure you feel confident and supported every step of the way.
What’s the difference between a move-up and a reinstall? We don’t perform move-ups at Kindred. While they’re common in the extension world, they can compromise your row’s balance and integrity. As your natural hair sheds, simply pushing the row back up leaves uneven support and tension—which can lead to discomfort or damage.
Instead, we fully remove and reinstall the row every 6–10 weeks. This keeps your hair and scalp happy, your wefts properly supported, and your blend seamless.
How long does one row of extensions last?
The hair itself can last 9–12 months with proper care. We typically remove and reinstall the row every 6–10 weeks to maintain placement and comfort.
Can I still wear my hair up?
Yes! The IBE® method allows for versatile styling. Your row will be placed to work with your haircut and lifestyle—including buns, ponytails, and waves.
Will it damage my hair?
The IBE® method is designed for scalp safety and minimal tension. As long as you follow our care recommendations and attend your maintenance appointments, your natural hair can stay healthy and strong.
Can you match my color and texture?
Absolutely. We stock a wide range of hand-tied hair and custom color each install for a seamless blend. For curly, coily, or highly textured hair, we may need to schedule a quick texture match or place a custom order. We keep some curl patterns on hand, but not every texture or color—so a little extra planning helps us deliver the perfect match.
What if I’ve never had extensions before?
You’re exactly who The Boost was designed for. One row gives you a low-pressure, high-impact way to try extensions—without committing to tons of hair, extra bulk, or a dramatic transformation. It’s soft, natural, and completely tailored to your comfort zone.
We use Invisible Bead Extensions® (IBE®)—a patented, scalp-safe method that eliminates tension and friction at the scalp. Each row is installed using concealed bead work and hand-tied wefts for maximum comfort and a seamless, wearable finish.
It’s a difference you’ll feel immediately—and appreciate even more over time.
