Thank you so much for trusting me to do your hair! I know that getting started with extensions can give all types of butterflies, so hopefully these FAQ’s will help put your mind at ease a little bit! I am here for you every step of the way!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • You can find me inside Dolce Vita Salon Suites at the District in Ankeny! The District is an area full of boutiques and dining options, so feel free to explore a bit while you’re here!

    The address is: 1380 SW Vintage Pkwy, Suite 209, Room 129, Ankeny, IA 50023

    Suite 209 is the whole second floor of the building (right above the Elements furniture store), and then I am in room 129!

  • However you want! We will always have time to wash and style, so no need to do anything special to prep! Leave the hard work to me!

  • I would never expect you to chat with me for the entirety of your install (though we can if you want!). Feel free to bring a book or podcast to pass the time, zone out, or “work from home”. Snacks, drinks, and phone chargers are always on hand for you!

  • I will have your extension hair custom colored, prepped, and ready to go when you arrive.

    Step 1: I like to start by lightly clipping in the hair so that we can make sure we’re on the same page and you’re loving the length, thickness, and color. If we need to tweak anything, we always have time to do so. I want you to feel confident and excited before we ever begin!

    Step 2: We will color your natural hair (if applicable) and do your install. This is your time to zone out, read, listen to a podcast, or chat with me. It’s your time!

    Step 3: Time to trim the extensions to add movement and make sure the blend is perfect. This is when everything really comes together!

    Step 4: Styling lesson! While I style, we will talk through all the different ways you might style at home and make sure you feel confident in doing so with your extensions.

    Step 5: Marching orders! We will discuss all of the homecare instructions that apply to you and customize your maintenance kit so that every product you receive is useful for you.

    Step 6: Time to document your transformation! I’ll take a few pictures of the finished product. It is so fun to compare before pictures from your first appointment after you’ve been with me a while, so I’ll send you the before and afters as well!

  • There are several ways to get in touch with me. You can send me an email at longevityhairspace@gmail.com or text me at (515) 259-0575. I check both throughout the day Tuesday-Friday between the hours of 9-5. If it is outside of these hours, I will get back to you as soon as I am able!

  • If you need to change your appointment, you can do so though any of the confirmation texts you received as well as by visiting my booking site at longevityhairspace.glossgenius.com. You can also contact me directly!
