I’ve been using Loxy’s hair extensions for years, both the wefts and clip ins, and nothing else compares! Aside from the fact that it’s ethically sourced (so many extensions aren’t), the quality is amazing - the hair lasts forever, is thick from root to end, and stays soft and silky just like when it first comes out of the package. Genuinely wouldn’t consider using hair from anywhere else.

I've been using this hair for the past 5 years on my clients and the quality never disappoints. It's super thick and soft hair and my clients don't want to use anything else! Best of all it's actually ethically sourced which I've never seen another company be able to boast. Communication, processing and shipping are always super fast and easy too! Cannot recommend enough!!!!

I’ve had the opportunity to work with Loxy’s hair extensions on several occasions and have seen a few of my clients using them. As a stylist, I’ve coloured the extensions to match my clients’ natural hair, and I’ve been really pleased with the results. Not only do the extensions take the colour very well, but the texture of the hair also remains smooth and natural, even after processing. This is a big plus in maintaining the overall quality of the look.

Had extensions put in for my 40th after always having thin hair. They looked so natural and they recommended a half head to better suit my hair type and not damage my hair. They looked so natural and I loved them. Only stopped as I moved out of Auckland to a rural area and couldn’t keep coming back for maintenance. Thoroughly recommend the thoughtfulness and care they out into looking after you and your hair along with the quality of their extensions. I now have clip in versions that I use for special events. Love Loxy’s.

The best quality hair extensions out there by a mile. So natural, yet thicker at then ends for fullness than any other brand, so easy to maintain, and long lasting - and the best customer service you could find!

The best extensions ever. Such incredible quality and they added the most amazing volume to my hair. I’ve tried a few different brands and these by far are the best.

I’ve used LOXY’S extensions for years - both clip ins and permanent. The quality is like non-other. Take care of the hair and you’ll get a good years worth out of them, BUT LISTEN TO THE STYLIST ABOUT AFTER-CARE! I’d use these extensions for the rest of my days. I couldn’t speak highly enough.

Thinking About Getting Hair Extensions? Here’s What You Need to Know
In my opinion I found extensions to be quick and surprisingly affordable. Kate agreed - "Traditionally extensions take hours to install hence the hefty price tag! However methods like the micro weave system we work with at Loxy’s take up to an hour for installation, then half an hour for blending them into your hair for a super natural and seamless result. Less application time also means less price tag, which is great but be sure to prioritize quality. You definitely get what you pay for, so cheaper hair may not go the distance time wise and may need to be replaced more often."

Watch: How Loxy's Became A Game Changer in Hair Extensions
It's only taken me 51 years to finally get around to trying hair extensions but today was the day and I'm over the moon with how fab they look. It definitely helps that my lovely friend Kate owns the best extension salon in New Zealand too!
But I thought I'd document the experience to show you guys (who may also be newbies to clip in extensions) how to use. Oh and I also thought it would be kind of helpful for me to have a record of how it's done too in case I forget when it's time for me to recreate the look myself at home.

How did she do that? Loxy’s Kate Jarrett on becoming a small business entrepreneur

She has a reputation as an energetic go-getter with a killer smile and when we finally met recently IRL as part of a story for Fashion Quarterly (you can read about it in the current Autumn issue), she did not disappoint. Kate shares her career story below:

Loxy's Kate Jarrett On How To Maintain Your Hair Extensions During Lockdown
Ten years ago, Kate Jarrett opened her first hair salon, located inside a rent-a-cabin on her front lawn in Point Chevalier.
Now, the beauty boss is the proud owner of two sprawling hair salons, one situated in the beating heart of Ponsonby, the other in the beauty precinct inside Commercial Bay.
Both salons are booked up months in advance a true testament to the talented hairstylists, colourists and extensions specialists who call Loxy's their home. (Take it from someone who knows, I've been going to Loxy's for the last five years and if I don't re-book my next appointment while I'm still in the salon I often miss out).
I got hair extensions to look like Elle Ferguson and this is what happened
For the past year or so, I’ve been pretty happy with my on-trend blunt bob but, just like the short ‘do situ, I suddenly decided that I wanted to extend the length of my locks ASAP.
However I defo don’t have the patience to wait for it to grow out (because who wants to wait? Let’s be real) so I booked in with Kate Jarrett, the lovely founder and owner of Loxy’s Hair Boutique in Ponsonby, Auckland to get a full head of extensions using her unique combination of the traditional weave and the micro ring technique.

Loxy’s brings its hair expertise to Wellington, New Zealand
Loxy’s Boutique opened its Wellington location on Tory Street earlier this month, with a pink-carpet event hosted by founder Kate Jarrett.
Jarrett, a Wellingtonian by birth, originally opened Loxy’s in Auckland, where she and her husband had moved. After years in the corporate world, she found she had a passion for hair extensions, and learned a micro-weave technique that she trained herself to do. She swears by the technique (and was a fitting ambassador for it on the night), enough to have started her salon in Ponsonby, and always had in mind to open up in her home town.
