Hair Extensions at Rose Darling Salon
Dreaming of longer, fuller hair? We specialize in premium, custom extensions designed to blend seamlessly with your natural texture and elevate your look—without compromising the health of your hair.
At Rose Darling Salon in Jacksonville, we offer two professional extension methods: K-tip extensions and hand-tied wefts, with the option to combine both in a hybrid install. Whether you're looking for a subtle boost or a full-on transformation, we’ll help you find the perfect solution for your lifestyle and goals.
What Are K-Tip Extensions?
K-tips, or keratin bond extensions, are individual strands of hair fused to your natural hair using a small, heat-activated bond. They’re virtually invisible and allow for complete freedom in styling—yes, even high ponytails.
Why we love them:
360° movement—perfect for sleek styles or updos
No beads, no glue, no tension
Longest-lasting method (3–4 months with proper care)
Great for fine or dense hair
Custom-colored and placed to blend seamlessly
What Are Hand-Tied Wefts?
Hand-tied wefts are rows of hair extensions sewn onto a beaded foundation along your scalp. They’re ideal for adding volume and length while keeping things low-maintenance.
Why we love them:
Quick install and removal
Gentle on natural hair
Ideal for medium to thick hair
Adds fullness and length with fewer attachment points
Perfect for lived-in, bouncy styles
Hybrid Installs
Want the best of both worlds? Hybrid extensions combine the volume of wefts with the flexibility of K-tips around the hairline for the most natural finish—especially for anyone wearing their hair up often.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which method is right for me?
That’s what the consultation is for! We’ll evaluate your hair type, lifestyle, and goals to recommend the best extension method for you.
Will extensions damage my natural hair?
When installed and cared for properly, no. Our goal is always healthy hair first—extensions should enhance, never harm.
Can I work out, swim, or travel with extensions?
Absolutely. Just follow your care guide, keep them moisturized, and avoid salt or chlorinated water when possible (or rinse right after exposure).
How long does the install take?
Plan on 2–4 hours depending on the method and how much hair you’re getting.
Can I color my extensions?
We custom-tone your extensions before install, but we don’t recommend coloring them at home or after installation.
