Godiva Hair Extensions

Please do not be fooled by the hair loss you experience during brushing between fittings, thinking it's just your regular shedding over time. I fell into this trap multiple times, and the hair loss from the mesh system was significant. My hair had never been so thin; it was already fine when I decided to try the integrated mesh system. I then switched to the mesh-less system, but the hair loss continued to be substantial, and I was assured it was completely normal. One day, I arrived late for my appointment due to severe traffic on the M62. I was 15 minutes behind schedule, and the terms and conditions stated that if you were 20 minutes late, they might not be able to accommodate you. I had driven over an hour to get there, only to be turned away! I even asked if I could wait and be seen at the end of the day. I had already removed my own hair, which would take around 15 minutes, so time-wise, it would have been the same. However, I was bluntly refused with no apology or empathy shown. In that moment, I realized I was just a statistic, and customer service was not their priority. In any case, since I stopped having these hair extensions sewn in so tightly, my natural hair has flourished and thickened more than ever. So, the mesh or meshless system does damage your natural hair, no doubt about it. The short, spriggy bits should have been my evidence! Avoid and don't waste your money.

Always trust your gut feeling. My consultation for a wig seemed promising, leading to the selection of a topper (uncertain if I would lose more hair due to chemo). We picked the colour, and weeks later, I returned for the fitting... wrong colour. The sample I had tried on was brought out but kept at a distance from the topper... it was clearly a different shade. The stylist insisted it was the same one, just under different lighting... they then proposed toning the bleached hair... I questioned if toner washes out, to which I was assured it wouldn't, but I had my doubts. At that moment, my instinct was to decline and return when it had been redone, but who knows if they would have just applied toner anyway. Besides, I had plans for a day out with my son the next day and wanted to look as natural as possible. Nearly three months later, I have gently washed it once, worn it five times, and it's already shedding a lot. I was told it would last six months with daily wear but a year if not... I bought a new brush without bristles as advised, and now I'm hesitant to brush it properly.

Every trip to Godiva is an absolute delight. The ladies are fantastic, always cheerful and engaging, making sure everyone feels included in the conversations. I received a fresh hairstyle today and was given plenty of helpful advice and tricks. I left the salon feeling absolutely fantastic, as always. Thank you ❤️
