Color matching is a breeze, your shears fly through any transformation, you’ve selected shining extensions that enhance the natural hair. Yet, when it comes to finding new extension clients, there is still much to be desired. With the hip-length locks seen at couture shows and extension “get-ready-with-me” posts flooding social media, you know the demand for dramatic length and volume is there. But how can stylists take the techniques they’ve sharpened and apply them to a dependable clientele?
Hair extension kits and displays allow you to create an elevated experience for everyone who walks into the salon. While of course, years of schooling and salon exposure influence your ability to reach new clients, having a passion for hair is only half the battle. In order to retain and build an extension clientele, guests need to feel and see the hair’s quality from the moment their appointment starts. Prepare to elevate your business to its full potential with the best hair extension kit every stylist needs.
Hit the Ground Running: Starter Hair Extension Kit
A beginner extension kit should have your essential application tools, clearly highlight an extension sample, and create a professional atmosphere—no small feat, right? To build client trust and help stylists achieve their best work, the HALOCOUTURE Standard Package includes the following:
- 16" Original HALO® Sample, Color #116
- Professional Color Ring
- HALO® Hanger
- Salon Cape
- Extension Hairbrush
- (4) Hair Clips
- HALO® Comb
- HALOCOUTURE® Welcome Folder
Of course, the most essential part of any extension hair kit is an excellent sample of hair. Electing Remy quality—where all cuticles run in the same direction, as natural hair flows—allows clients to see that the extensions have the same movement and softness as their own locks. Specifically featuring a halo extension sample has its own perks too. Because a halo install is such an effortless process, clients can visualize how easily the halo glides on and off the head. Next up—a professional color ring. Not only can clients see the different color blends against their hair, but it is also a stylist necessity for ensuring accurate color matches.
Another must-have for any hair installation kit? The tools needed to make the client experience feel professional and seamless. A salon cape that communicates a comfortable environment, a brush that gently moves through the strands, clips to hold hair during the installation, a comb that helps create precise sections without tugging at the hair...even these small details can transform how a client views your salon.

A final bonus of the HALO Standard Package is its folder of resources aimed at helping stylists navigate installs and aftercare, including our Stylist Success Guide.
Leveling Up: Advanced Hair Extension Kit
After getting started with your initial sample and building your clientele, it’s time to keep the momentum rolling by advancing your extension business even further. For stylists wanting a competitive edge, our Standard Plus Package gives you even more flexibility to meet clients’ needs. In addition to the tools featured in our Standard Package, it includes the following:
- 18” Layered HALO Sample
- Additional HALO Hanger
The Layered HALO, our most popular extension, contains built-in, gradual layers to save you time behind the chair. More extension options equal more opportunities for upselling, and the Layered HALO can match a whole new range of hair goals. For those with naturally short hair looking to up their length, this extension’s added texture makes for a smoother blend and transition from the natural hair to the halo. Because the Layered HALO also has 30% more grams of hair than our Original, this option also better suits those with dense or thick strands.
Having this additional extension option displayed not only starts conversations with more potential clients but also helps establish your expertise as an extension stylist who can offer a personalized salon visit.
Reaching Your Potential: Premium Extension Kits for Hair
You’ve introduced extensions to new clients, created an organized, comfortable salon experience, and crafted dozens of transformations. It’s time to take your business to the level you know it can reach with our most comprehensive kit available—the Premium Display Package. Featuring all the essentials of the Standard Plus Package, it also includes the following:
- Premium HALO® Display
- 12” Original HALO® Sample
- 14” Layered HALO® Sample
- 20” Original HALO® Sample
- 22” Layered HALO® Sample
- Auto-Rotating Curling Iron
- Pure Ceramic Flat Iron
- Additional HALO® Hangers
Presenting your extension collection at the front of the salon dramatically increases your profits. Have doubts? Stylists showcasing our retail display see an average of five times more revenue with HALO versus non-retail display salons. Although the display rack may seem like a minor addition, giving clients the ability to sift through different extensions instills all the hair possibilities outside of a haircut or coloring.
Paired with professional hair extension tools designed to craft bouncy curls or frizz-free locks, clients can enjoy a luxury transformation from start to finish.

Whatever hair goal you encounter, having an extensive sample of extensions allows everyone who steps into the salon to imagine their dream hair.
