The real cost of the wrong supplier

Nobody switches supplier over price. They switch after a bad Saturday.

The shade arrives warmer than the photo. The client is already in the chair. You either fit it and hope, or you cancel and rebook, and either way you look like the problem. Six weeks later the ends have thinned because the hair was single drawn, and the client thinks that is your work.

That is what you are actually buying protection from. Not a discount. The discount is the easy part.

Start with the colour ring, not the trade account

Do not open an account and order a full set for a real client on day one. Order the 60+ shade colour ring first. Hold it against a real client's hair in daylight. Feel the hair. Decide whether it is good enough for your name to go on it.

It is £109.99 and it is refundable against your first trade order, so if you go ahead it costs you nothing. If you decide we are not right for you, you have found out for the price of a colour ring instead of the price of a client.

All 60+ shades, including rooted and highlighted tones. £109.99, refundable against your first trade order. Order a colour ring →

Why stylists stay, not just sign up

Shade 4 is shade 4 next time. Shades are matched to the colour ring, so the set you order in March matches the one from January. Batch drift is the quiet reason stylists leave suppliers.
No minimum, so no dead stock. You order what the client in front of you needs.
You can reach a person. WhatsApp, not a ticket queue.
Real lead times before you order, not after.
Texture that actually matches. The main reason people move to us and stay.

What we are not right for

Next-day jobs on unstocked shades. Made for You orders are dispatched 15 days from order.
Competing purely on price. Our hair costs more than budget single drawn. It lasts longer, but the upfront number is higher.
Straight-only stylists already happy with their supplier. We are probably not a big enough upgrade to bother switching.

What we supply, method by method

Shade and texture choice varies by method, with the wider WAVE range running to 60+ shades, in lengths from 16 to 24 inches.

Nano bond hair extensions (from £161.99 retail). Individual strands through a silicone-lined nano ring. No heat, no glue. The most discreet option and the gentlest on fine hair. Maintenance every 4 to 8 weeks.
Tape-in hair extensions (from £175). Wide flat tabs sandwiched around a section. Fastest full head to fit, usually under an hour, and reusable across several fittings. Move-up every 6 to 8 weeks.
Weft hair extensions (from £199.99). Sewn or machine wefts for maximum volume across a full head. Fitted by sew-in, braidless weave or microring. Lasts up to 9 months with care.
K-tip and flat tip extensions. Italian keratin bonds fitted strand by strand with a heat connector. The most natural movement, and the highest skill to fit and remove. 3 to 4 months.
Clip-in hair extensions (from £229.99). No fitting appointment. Useful for retail alongside your service, and the lowest-risk way for a client to test a shade before committing.

Professional tools for each method are stocked separately: nano bond tools, weft tools, tape-in tools.

Textures and curl patterns we carry

This is where most UK wholesale hair extension suppliers stop at one wavy option. We carry the full range because textured clients are the reason WAVE exists.

Straight, for Type 1 and blow-dried finishes.
Water wave, a soft open S-bend for 2A to 2C.
Soft wave and wavy, soft wave and water wave, 2A to 2C.
Deep wave, close defined waves clumping like curls, 2C to 3B. Our best seller.
Sahara curly and Burmese curly, defined spirals that clump naturally, from 2C/3B upwards.
Kinky curly and jerry curl wefts, for 4A to 4C.
Kinky straight, for Type 4 hair worn smooth.

By fitting method, browse curly clip in hair extensions, curly tape in hair extensions, curly hair bundles and wavy hair extensions.

Browse everything together in curly hair extensions, or send us a photo of a client and we will tell you honestly which pattern matches.

Shades and colour matching

60+ shades, including single tones, rooted shades, highlighted blends and balayage. Matched to the physical colour ring rather than to screen photography, which is what makes repeat ordering reliable.

Two ways to match: order the colour ring for in-person matching at consultation, or send a daylight photo on WhatsApp for a same-day opinion. Our colour matching guide covers the method.

Lead times, ordering and delivery

Most sets are made for you in your client's exact shade, length and texture, and are dispatched 15 days from the day you order. Best-selling shades and lengths are held in stock for express dispatch. We tell you which applies before you order, not after.

UK delivery nationwide. No minimum order value, so a single set is a perfectly normal order.

Trade pricing explained

Every approved trade account gets 20% off standard retail across the entire range, including tools and haircare, from the very first order. Higher tiers, up to 30% off, open up as your ordering builds with us. No sign-up fee, no annual fee and no minimum spend to keep the discount.

We have deliberately kept it simple. Every approved account starts on the same 20%, so the stylist building up is never priced out, and the higher tiers are there to be earned as you grow.

How to choose a hair extension supplier

Worth asking any supplier, including us.

Is there a physical colour ring? Screens misrepresent tone.
Is the hair genuinely double drawn? Single drawn thins at the ends within months.
How many curl patterns do they really carry? Many list one and call it textured.
What is the real lead time, and are you told before or after ordering?
Is there a minimum order? Minimums move risk onto you.
Can you reach a human mid-appointment when something is wrong?
Will the shade be identical next time? Batch consistency is what makes reordering safe.

Who we supply

Independent hairdressers, salon owners, chair and suite renters, and mobile stylists across the UK. Whether you fit two heads a month or twenty, you start on the same 20% off retail and the minimum is the same.
