Clip-In Wefts: Custom-Made, Ready In Minutes, Kind To Your Hair
Quick AnswerCustom clip-in wefts are our handmade single-donor wefts stitched with secure clips and cut to your exact measurements — AED 500 per 100g at Crystal Hair Extensions. You snap them in for fullness in minutes and remove them at night, so there is no commitment, no bonds and no damage.
Clip-ins are the gentlest way to wear extensions: our own hand-tied wefts, converted into ready-to-wear pieces with securely stitched clips and sized to your head — the Custom Clip-In Weft costs AED 500 per 100g and is made to order.
Why custom beats off-the-shelf clip-ins?
- Your measurements: weft widths follow your head shape, so no gaps, no bulges, no slipping
- Your colour: matched in salon from the same palette as our fitted methods — including the Walnut/Ash Balayage melt
- Your hair: single-donor Remy that washes and styles like your own, not synthetic shine
When do clip-ins make sense?
Weddings and events, travel, gym-days-off, or as a trial before committing to tape-ins or K-tips — most of our permanent-method clients started with clip-ins. They are also ideal during pregnancy or when scalp sensitivity rules out bonds. Cost comparisons live in our Dubai price guide.
How do I wear clip-in wefts?
- Tease a thin base line where the weft will sit, or lightly backcomb the root
- Snap the clips closed working bottom to top
- Blend with a few passes of a loop brush or curling iron on medium heat
Total time after a week of practice: under five minutes. Removal takes seconds — never sleep in clip-ins.
How long do custom clip-ins last?
The same 6–12 months as fitted sets, because the hair is identical — only the attachment differs. Wash 1–2 times a week with sulphate-free shampoo, store flat or on a hanger, and follow the full routine in our care guide.

Common Questions
How much do custom clip-in extensions cost in Dubai?
AED 500 per 100g at Crystal Hair Extensions — handmade from our single-donor wefts, colour-matched and cut to your measurements.
Can I sleep in clip-in extensions?
No. Remove them before bed — sleeping in clips stresses both your natural hair and the clips. Removal takes seconds and the hair lasts 6–12 months when stored properly.
Where is Crystal Hair Extensions located?
We are in Dubai, UAE. Main salon: The Iridium Building, Unit 215, Al Barsha. Second location on Jumeira Street, Jumeirah First. Book a visit or colour-match consultation on WhatsApp.
What types of hair extensions do you sell?
We supply 100% Remy single-donor human hair extensions: hand-tied wefts, tape-ins, K-tip (keratin bonds), I-tips, clip-in wefts, a full colour collection (dark brown, ash blonde, jet black, balayage, golden blonde) and bespoke hand-made toppers.
How much do hair extensions cost in Dubai?
Extension sets start around AED 220 for a 50g hand-tied weft and typically range AED 1,000–1,500 for a full colour-matched set. Bespoke toppers are made to order from AED 1,500. Exact pricing depends on length, density and method — book a free consultation for a quote.
Are the extensions real human hair?
Yes — 100% Remy human hair from single donors, double-drawn so thickness runs root to tip. The cuticles are kept aligned in one direction, which prevents tangling and matting. As natural hair, slight variation in colour and texture is normal.
How long do hair extensions last?
With salon-grade hair and proper care, our extensions last 6–12 months of regular wear. Tape-ins are refitted every 6–8 weeks; K-tip bonds 3–4 months; hand-tied wefts are reused and moved up every 8–10 weeks.
Do you colour-match extensions to my hair?
Yes, free colour-matching is part of every consultation. Our stylists assess your base shade, tone and how light catches your ends, then select or custom-blend from our range — including balayage melts for a lived-in finish.
How do I book an appointment?
Message us on WhatsApp at +971 58 501 6669 with the service or product you're interested in. We reply with available slots for Al Barsha or Jumeirah. Consultations and colour matches are free.
Do you deliver in the UAE?
Yes — fast UAE delivery on orders over AED 500 is free, dispatched in 1–2 business days by courier. Cash on delivery, card, bank transfer and WhatsApp ordering are all supported.
Can extensions damage my hair?
Fitted correctly, no. We use weight-matched, gentle methods (hand-tied wefts, flat tape-ins, keratin K-tips) and never overload fine hair. Professional fitting plus our care routine keeps natural hair healthy.
What is a bespoke hair topper?
A hand-knotted, single-donor topper built from scratch for volume or coverage at the crown. Lightweight and undetectable, each takes 4–6 weeks to craft and is priced by length, density and base size.
What aftercare products should I use?
Use sulphate-free shampoo 2–3 times a week, condition from mid-lengths down, keep heat tools on medium with a protectant, and braid hair loosely before bed — ideally on a silk pillowcase.
Can I wash and style extensions like normal hair?
Yes. Because it's 100% Remy human hair you can wash, curl, straighten and colour it — always with heat protectant and sulphate-free products, and avoid oil-based products near bonds or tapes.
How long does hair extension application take?
Tape-ins take 60–90 minutes for a full head, hand-tied wefts about 1.5–2 hours, and K-tip or I-tip strand methods 2–3 hours. We confirm your exact appointment length at the free consultation.
How often should I book extension maintenance?
Tape-ins are refitted every 6–8 weeks, hand-tied wefts every 8–10 weeks, and keratin bonds are checked at 6 weeks with a 3–4 month wear cycle. Our maintenance menu includes refits, encapsulation and bond care.
Do you maintain extensions that were not bought from Crystal?
Yes — book extension maintenance on WhatsApp and tell us which method you wear. We will assess the hair honestly and quote before any work starts.
Can you colour or treat my hair while I wear extensions?
Yes. Our salon offers full colour, balayage, toners and treatments (keratin, botox, Olaplex/K18 and more) — we work around bonds and tapes carefully and use extension-safe formulas.
What hair treatments do you offer besides extensions?
Cut & style, hair colour (balayage, highlights, gloss), and treatments including keratin, hair botox, protein, anti-hair-fall, scalp detox and Olaplex/K18 — all listed with prices on the Services page.
