What the Service Includes
Sew-In Styling at Studio Chique focuses on refreshing an existing sew-in. We cleanse to remove product buildup, apply professional conditioning to the extensions and natural hair, dry, and create a polished style for a smooth, salon-fresh finish. This appointment is intended only for sew-in extensions and does not include tightening or re-installation work.
The official price for this service is $130 and the posted duration is 30 minutes. The allotted service time is an estimate, not the exact booking time; appointments may take longer depending on hair length, weave density, detangling needs, and the specific style you request.
How We Prepare the Sew-In
We begin with a brief assessment of the sew-in wefts and scalp to determine cleansing and conditioning needs. Cleansing removes oils and product residue without disturbing the weave; conditioning restores slip and manageability. Drying is done carefully to avoid flattening the weft, and finishing techniques are chosen to preserve the install while delivering a clean, styled result.
Studio Chique serves Washington clients with convenient access from Rhode Island Ave–Brentwood and Brookland-CUA Metro stations, plus nearby neighborhoods like Brookland and College Park. We offer flexible early-morning and evening bookings for commuters, parents and shift workers who need appointments outside standard hours.
What Shapes The Final Result
Several factors determine the outcome: the condition of the sew-in and natural hair, the weave's density and length, product choice, and environmental factors such as Washington’s humid summers. A polished finish can be achieved quickly for moderate buildup, while more extensive cleaning or detangling increases appointment time. If tightening or reinstalling is needed, a separate maintenance booking is required.
Because this service focuses on styling and refresh, clients should expect smoothing, renewed shine and a dressed finish rather than structural changes to the install. If you plan to color, significantly alter, or tighten your extensions, tell us in advance so we can advise the right appointment type and timing.
