“My hair won't grow past a certain length.”

Sound familiar?

  • 01Your hair grows to the same point and stops.
  • 02You've tried vitamins, oils, growth serums, and skipping trims.
  • 03Your ends get thin and see-through the longer it gets.
  • 04You save photos of long hair, knowing yours won't get there on its own.
  • 05Every time you think it's finally growing, you need a trim.

You're not the only one, and there is something you can do about it.

Why it happens

Why your hair stops at the same length.

Every hair grows for a set amount of time before it falls out and starts over. For some women, that cycle ends before the hair reaches the length they want. That's genetics, not something you're doing wrong.

Breakage can hold length back too. If the ends break as fast as the roots grow, your hair stays at the same length no matter how long you wait.

The approach

How Joanna adds length

If you're tired of waiting for your hair to grow, extensions may help you enjoy the length you've been wanting.

Joanna customizes the length, fullness, texture, and cut so your extensions blend with the hair you already have. She color-matches the set and places it so there's no line where your hair stops. She'll also tell you honestly how much length looks natural on you and what it takes to maintain.

Frequently asked questions.

How much length can I add?

It depends on your hair's length and density now. Joanna will tell you what looks natural on your hair in your free Hair Planning Session.

Will it look like my real hair?

That's the goal. Every set is color-matched and cut into your hair so it blends.

Will extensions stop my own hair from growing?

No. Your own hair keeps growing underneath, and your maintenance visits keep the extensions sitting right as it does.
