    Can anyone give me a price or any info about this lady doing extensions? I'm newly engaged and want to get these for my fiancee for valentines day as she's been going on and on about them. If they're mega pricey though i have other gift ideas. If anyone has price info or info about what type of extensions she does that would be great

    Here's a link to their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/CeiraLambert?sk=info

    They need to know more about the hair before giving a price like how long or thick you want the extensions to be. Have never got them myself (yet ;)) but know people who have and were delighted with them :)

    Thanks. Herself sent a msg before but didn't get replied to. Her hair is middling length to me, but she says short. Its just passed shoulder length when straight. Its curly but when she straightens it, its thin enough, like the ponytail would be the thickness of my thumb, does that make sense? She's looking for 'fullness' (don't know the actual term) and length. And doesn't know about the different options for types of hair extensions but wants some that won't damage her own hair?

    I hate places that won't give out prices. Really annoying! I bet most extensions they do are around the same price but they just want to do the thing over the phone to hook you in.

    I went to Ciera for a consultation and she was lovely! Really helpful and picked my colour with me. She said a full head of 17 inch would be 950 and if i wanted longer it would be about 1200.

    I was all set to book and then over the weekend I discovered easilocks. Just through google. Went for a consultation there too. I got quoted 450 for a full head (up to 20 inches) and they also promised not to damage your hair which was my main concern. Also you can reuse the easilocks hair.

    So I booked in with easilocks (ebano on store street). Got them done yesterday and I love them!

    Obviously I would have loved the Great Lengths ones too but if you are not up for spending that much defo check out easilocks!

    (I'm not related to the business in any way, just a happy customer who came across them on google at just the right time!)

    Hi Siobhanoh, i really want hair extensions and am researching them for the last few weeks and i want to get ones that i wont be dissapointed with.

    I too went to Ceira Lambert for a consultation and was strongly thinking about getting them there. its just the pricetag thats holding me back. :(

    Just wondering how are you getting on with your hair from easilocks? i gave them a call today and am going to book a consultation. Is the hair of good quality and can you tie it up without the bonds being too noticable? in your opinion, are they worth the money you paid?

    sorry for all the questions, just want to get someones opinion that alreay has easilocks! any info would be great. :)

    sorry for all the questions, just want to get someones opinion that alreay has easilocks! any info would be great. :)

    I've had them done four times. Get about 4 - 4.5 months out of each set, but my hair grows slowly. You can see the joins sometimes if you do half up half down styles but not when all tied up.

    Hair is of excellent quality, colour matches perfectly and no noticeable difference between where my hair ends and it begins. My hair is only about 2 - 3 inches shorter than the extensions though so it's easier to look natural.

    I think they are worth the money. It does mean it takes longer to dry your hair and you have to be careful when brushing and brush more often.

    Some will fall out, particularly in the 4th month but the effect is still good even when a lot have fallen out. I try to get as long as possible out of them so leave them in past the official 3 months.

    No damage to to my own hair that I have seen.

    I got them done in Ebano Ballinteer with James who I highly recommend!

    Hope this helps!

    I've had them in nearly 3 weeks and so far so good! I used to wash my hair every day but they take longer to dry so i am trying to leave it to every second day but after the first day i put a french plait in them and the next day they look great! Bit of dry shampoo if my own hair looks a bit greasy.

    Shane in ebano in store street did mine and he was saying they will last longer than three months but to prevent damage to my own hair he said to get them redone after 3 months and it only costs 300 then if you are using the same hair.

    My verdict is to get them! You'll love them!

    Thank you both for the replies. So good to get opinions off people that have already got them done. ye gave me that little reassurance I needed and iv booked into ebano and am getting them done in two Weeks. :)
    The only thing Is Shane isn't available to do them that day so his sister is going doing them instead. Hope sure as good as he is!

    So tempted!! I got the clip in ones in Hairspray and they look amazing. but they do feel weird when they're on and there's always the fear of someone seeing the clips!

    I'd be so tempted to get the 3 months ones. Thanks for the info!

    I'm also looking out for hair extensions, sent about 3 or 4 messages to ceira and never received a reply. So i'm not impressed at all especially for the prices charged. I had micro rings before and loved them, once with remy hair and once with spanish hair. The remi hair wasn't as good. Would love to find a place that can do them with spanish hair that won't damage my own but for a reasonable price.

    Iv heard of numerous people that have contacted her looking for prices and they never heard anything back. Not a great way of doing business.

    Hi

    I currently have the pre bonded kind and would love to try Ebano just waiting for the new year to save the €450! I understand that its €150 ever 3/4 months afterwards as you re use the hair.. just wondering how long you get out of the hair as I dont think I could afford to carry on paying €450 every few months..

    I am currently paying €260.00 for removal and re application of the pre bonds every 3/4 months.

    Tks!

    What's the difference between the easilocks/great lengths and microbeads extensions? I know the microbeads don't damage your hair or use any glue or heat to attach but they are visible sometimes so wondering if the other types would be better?

    Just went for a consult in Ebano on store street for Easilocks! Niamh did my consult, lively girl! Anna is doing my extensions next Thursday. 450 for extensions including cut & style. 500 if you want Shane. Then every 3 months it's just 300 for touch ups. Will post and let you know how I get on :)

    Cheap extensions can look terrible but that is great if you have found someone cheap who does them well! I do get 5 months out of mine which reduces the average cost too, although I mainly think it's as my hair grows slowly.

    Yeah I'd love to know what brand.. Ive seen hotlox and lucious lox after a while and they look nasty.
    So excited to get easilocks!

    Jan 2011 and have had them in 5 times in total.

    I absolutely love them, they last for ages and they look perfectly real. They do start falling out when you have them in for 4 or 5 months but my current ones are now in 5 months and they still look great.

    I do think it helps though that I have long hair to begin with (maybe 3 inches shorter than the extensions) and my hair grows slowly.

    I'm thinking of getting easilock but the price is turning me off them. I was quoted 250 for short ones(the same length as my own hair) and 500 for long ones. I'd love my hair to be a bit longer because its only just below my shoulders but can't afford 500. I'm considering getting the ones that are the same length as my own hair. Does anyone know if this is worth doing? Will it make my hair much thicker looking. It's not especially thin as it is. You can't see scalp but a lot of people would consider it a bit on the thin side.

    My gf got her extensions in the end from issonni, 395 to start and hair is reusable so its 150 every 4 months. Nobody ever knows she has hair extensions until she tells them and she loves them. I tried to get in touch with ceira lambert a few times to organise the surprise for my gf, but just couldn't get a response or price guide so had to give up in the end. Was juts told maybe it would be 1200, and that would be every 3 months!

    Hey all, I just booked my consultation for Ebano store street with a lovely girl called Niamh, I was blonde and LOVED it but the damage it caused meant I had to cut my hair to just below the shoulder. Im just curious would it be better to
    (1) go brown all over as it would be easier kept and easier to match the extensions?
    (2) is all the hair super straight and shiny because my hair is quiet coarse and kinky?
    (3) do really long extensions look ridiculous when natural hair is only below the shoulder?
    (4) if i go brunette and get brunette extensions and eventually want yo go blonde will I have to buy new extensions or have to dye the the ones I get?
    (4) and most worrying is there any chance hair could matt? :-/

    soo sorry for all the questions guys,these are just some of my curiosities, all info shall be greatly appreciated. :)

    I'm still getting them,defo, the pics look amazing, practically stalking easilocks on facebook and twitter, savage work :-D

    OMG people still pay that kinda money for hair extentions?that really is shocking!!! i do tape hair extensions, micro-rings and prebonded and i charge around 200-250 for full head. (depending on lenght, thickness) and i dont use cheap hair from china, i use quality hair that are 100% human remy hair, and they last forever. people think if they spend so much money, they will get the best, but really, if u look around carefully, u can find the quality for much less then that.

    Do you work in a salon? I've been trying to find hair extensions for that price but the cheapest I've been quoted is €450 which I absolutely do not have :(

    I'm going to America this summer so I might be able to get them much cheaper over there - hopefully anyway!

    Easilocks would be used by many different hairdressers in the UK and Ireland. Since you put pound signs in your post, I presume you are talking about somewhere in the UK. This thread is about Ireland.

    The hairdresser might be particularly skilled or in somewhere with very high costs like London?

    hey girls, I got great lengths in May and got them removed in September. I have scary spice curly hair so they were hard to maintain. Having said that , my hair is undamaged after removal. I paid 850 for a full head, my advice would be to source a qualified great lengths extensionist who has a good rep as ciera lambert prices are always gonna be higher due to her popularity with celebs!! 😊👍
