How the technique works
Micro tip extensions are individually applied pieces placed near the hair’s root to create a blended, seamless result. At Glamour Den our stylists section the hair and attach each micro tip discreetly so strands move and fall with the client’s natural hair, minimizing visible bulk while building targeted volume and dimension.
The process is tailored to your base hair, density goals and desired length. An initial application session typically lasts 180 minutes and is priced starting at $300, which covers the fitting and placement. Color matching and placement patterns are chosen to preserve movement and allow standard styling choices after the bonds are set.
What to expect at appointment
Plan for a thorough consultation followed by the application during your 180-minute session; the time allows for color blending, precise placement and styling. Glamour Den’s location in East Setauket makes scheduling straightforward for clients balancing Stony Brook University, hospital shifts, school runs or commuting along Route 25A and Nicolls Road.
Demand peaks in May, June, November and December for proms, graduations, weddings and holiday events, so book ahead during these months. The starting price of $300 is listed for the initial application; stylist recommendations during consultation can affect total cost depending on desired density and additional services.
Styling and daily considerations
Micro tips are valued for maintaining natural movement and offering styling versatility, so clients can wear hair down, in loose waves or up in styles that don’t put concentrated tension on the attachments. Your stylist will advise on heat styling approaches and product choices that preserve the blend and finish while supporting everyday wear.
Local climate and lifestyle matter: Long Island’s four seasons mean styling choices change through humidity, cold and event seasons. Clients who commute from nearby Setauket, Port Jefferson or Stony Brook often schedule around travel and event dates; discuss timing and lifestyle during your consultation so the result suits how you live and get around.
