I was visiting from out of town and needed a quick blowout. OA Salons could not be more accommodating to my quick timeline turn around. Sophie was incredible and so talented! I showed her what I wanted and she understood exactly my vision. Couldn’t recommend OA Salon enough, will be recommending them to my friends who live in the area!
I love this place. It is a little pricey but the customer service makes it worth it❤️ never going back to ulta again.
Absolutely loved it! First time randomly booked on a whim and I am very happy with my hair. Jett was amazing. So funny. And so relatable. I will definitely be going back to see him! Xx
I just moved Here from Florida and got Lucky with the first salon I selected online. Chance was amazing!! What a great welcome to Charlotte! NC! I love my hair 👏👏👏👏👏
My experience with Jett was very smooth and calming. I just went in to get a normal haircut before my baby arrives and he was able to get the length I wanted for low maintenance. He was very attentive and professional. The salon was also very nice and smelled good. I would highly recommend going here just for the excellent service!

What Makes Russian & Slavic Hair the Best for Extensions?

OA Salons offers multiple options for different types of applications – all human hair – Whether you want long hair to your knees like Kim Kardashian and Ariana Grande, or just want to add a little more oomph to your hair, there are extensions for all hair types and styles.

The first step is a complimentary consultation to determine which hair extensions are right for you. Consultations usually take about 20 minutes and, after taking a thorough history of your hair and answering any questions you may have, we will work with you to determine which type of extension would help you achieve your desired look. The extensions used will match your natural color and texture so that they will be virtually undetectable and easy to maintain.

Our Colour Matching Service

Russian hair is similar to Western hair in texture and is available in a wide range of colour options, including blondes, brunettes and reds. This means that it is much easier to colour match your extensions to your natural hair to ensure a seamless blend. This also means that extensions do not need to be chemically treated before fitting and will behave the same way as your own hair, even after washing and drying.

Our hair extensions process is all about finding the best match to your hair for a seamless, natural-looking finish. We expertly match the colour, texture and thickness of your hair to create bespoke, undetectable extensions.

The superior quality of Russian hair extensions means that you can expect to wear your bespoke extensions for years, as opposed to months, if proper aftercare and maintenance is carried out.

Russian Hair Extension Installation

Russian hair is extremely versatile and can be used in a wide range of extension types. At OA Salons, we offer Russian and Virgin Russian hair extensions with micro rings, miniature micro rings and clip in attachments. Find the perfect Russian hair extension system for you.

Russian Hair Extensions:Before and After

This client came to us looking for Russian hair extensions but thought a seamless set was impossible without colouring the natural hair. Our team worked their magic with gentle bleach to lift the ends of the extensions, showing off the excellent colour matching service available at OA Salons. Our virgin Russian hair can be lightened with bleach, which is virtually unheard of with hair extensions. Usually, they are heavily processed and lined with a layer of silicone, but not ours! We took raw ponytails and created bespoke extensions, colour matched to mirror our client’s brown hair and blonde highlights. We then treated the ends of the hair to create an amazing gradient. A loose wave finished off the look, showing just what our gravity-defying Russian hair can do.

Russian Hair Extensions FAQs

Russian hair is extremely rare and difficult to source, with many suppliers selling Asian hair disguised as Russian hair. Due to this, many salons claim to work with Russian hair, and may believe that they are, but in fact are not. We believe that the only way to truly know what you are purchasing is to travel there directly…so that’s exactly what we did!

Russian hair is expensive and for the salons that don’t employ Russian speakers, it is easy to be mis-sold Asian hair cleverly disguised as Russian. With an abundance of counterfeit hair on the market, the only way to truly know is to collect the hair at the source, avoiding dishonest hair merchants and brokers.

With over 10 years experience, we know just what to look for when it comes to sourcing genuine Russian hair.

Asian and Chinese hair needs to be heavily processed in order to lift it to a lighter colour. In addition to this, chemicals are often used to change the texture to match western hair. This can leave the cuticle layer severely damaged and therefore affect the overall quality of hair extensions.

Our virgin Russian hair arrives in the form of bulk ponytails. We colour match all of our hair by hand to our client’s hair, ensuring damage to the extensions is minimal if processes such as lightening are required.

We are experts at spotting fake Russian hair to ensure that all of our clients receive the very best quality hair extensions. There are a number of giveaways such as price, imperfections and durability.

Price – Russian hair is rare. The population of Russian accounts for just 1.87% of the world’s overall population. Asia on the other hand accounts for over 50% of the world’s population. This, therefore, means that Russian hair is scarce in comparison to the amount of Asian hair available on the market. The recent demand for Russian hair extensions also means that supply cannot keep up, therefore, driving the price even higher.

Any salon that is selling ‘cheap Russian hair’ is unlikely to be the real deal. Russian hair should be seen as an investment, not a cheap fix.

Another quick giveaway is if the price increases between hair lengths are standardised. Longer lengths of Russian hair are even rarer and therefore demand a premium in terms of price. The longer the hair the more you can expect to pay.

Mass Production – The rarity of Russian hair means it is almost impossible to mass-produce hair extension product lines made entirely from Russian hair. If you see a site advertised next day delivery on Russian hair extensions in a wide variety of colours and lengths, it is likely fake.

Mass-produced hair extension lines must be consistent and exact. This is simply not possible with Russian hair. The hair would need to be chemically treated in order to ensure consistency across the product range. In addition to this, the cost to have the stock necessary to provide a wide product range and quick delivery is simply not feasible for most businesses.

Double Drawn Russian Hair as Standard – Double drawn Russian hair is the same thickness at the top as it is the bottom. In order to achieve this, the shorter lengths of hair must be removed. This means that more hair would be needed in order to create hair extensions and therefore the price would be higher. Whilst many salons do offer double drawn Russian hair, this is very rarely offered as standard.

If a salon claims that all of their Russian hair extensions are double drawn, they are likely not selling real Russian hair.

Hair Appearance – One of the biggest giveaways is the actual appearance of the hair. Whilst Russian hair is glossy by nature, it should not be unnaturally shiny. If this is the case, Asian hair has likely been coated in silicone to give the impression of Russian hair. This will wash off after a few days, leaving it dull and damaged.

The hair should also feel soft and fine, whilst Asian hair tends to have more of a coarse texture. In addition to this, you should actually look for imperfections. Hair that has been chemically treated often looks ‘perfect’ or a single block colour, however, it is likely damaged and low quality. Natural imperfections such as split ends, kinks, highlights can be a sign that the hair is really Russian.

Language – If you are attempting to buy Russian hair for your salon, language is a key signal to look out for. It is easy to be conned if you don’t know what you’re looking for. Try to buy from Russian speakers and businesses. You should also look out for all the other signs mentioned above to ensure the hair you’re buying is legitimate.

Durability – This can be a difficult one to ascertain however, if a salon is advertising Russian hair that only lasts a few months then it is highly likely to be fake. Russian hair extensions can last up to 5 years with proper aftercare and maintenance.

At OA Salons, we uphold a commitment to transparency and authenticity with our valued customers. We take pride in delivering genuine Russian hair extensions and readily demonstrate their authenticity, ensuring our customers always receive what they expect.

Slavic Russian hair extensions are those created from hair that originates in the Slavic and Russian regions. This includes the Ukraine, Belarus and Slovenia.

We like to think of it as an investment rather than an expense. Russian hair is expensive for salons to buy in so you can expect to pay a premium for Russian hair extensions but, remember you are also getting a premium product. Russian hair extensions will last much longer than other hair extensions so you won’t have to replace them as often. You might actually end up saving yourself money!

Russian hair extensions are high-quality human hair extensions made only from hair that originates in Russia. These hair extensions are known for being the best in the world due to the exceptional strength, shine and softness of Russian hair. At OA Salons, we’re proud to be one of the few salons in the country offering high-quality, ethically sourced Russian hair extensions.

The price of Russian hair extensions can vary depending on the type of installation, the length and the amount of hair extensions you require. For Russian hair extensions, our prices start from $$$$ (for 1/2 head and 12-14 inches of length) up to $$$$ (for limitless extensions and 22-24 inches of length). View our pricing page for more information.

How the Russian hair is sourced will also factor into the price. Be wary of salons offering Russian hair extensions at ridiculously low prices – they’re likely not providing you with real, ethically sourced Russian hair. At OA Salons, you can trust that you’ll only receive the highest quality, authentic Russian hair in your extensions.

We do not recommend colouring, tinting or perming your Russian hair extensions, especially by yourself. These products contain chemicals that can damage both your hair extensions and your natural hair. Our Russian hair extensions are made from 100% human hair, but they don’t receive nutrients from your scalp like your natural hair does, meaning they’re more likely to be negatively affected by hair dye. If you want to keep your hair extensions looking their best, we recommend steering clear of hair dye!
