Not a bad way to spend a Monday 🫶🏻

is 17 today!!

I’ll never forget working through the night—until 4:30AM—to make sure the salon was ready to open just a few hours later. Little did we know that it would only be the first of many all nighters. In fact, there was so much we didn’t know that night and so much we’re still learning even now.

When I think back throughout the years, what stands out are the relationships we’ve made, the stories we get to be a part of. From co-workers becoming some of our closest friends, to sharing trials and triumphs with our clients—we have done so much life with so many people and I don’t know where else you find that kind of connection. Hair salons are full of secrets the rest of the world doesn’t yet know—people tell us everything, and it often goes both ways. It’s like a sacred ground of spilling your guts lol, and there is an unspoken understanding that the trust must be carefully protected. It’s actually incredible when you think about it.

We’re so grateful to everyone who has come alongside us on this journey-friends and family who have lent their blood, sweat and maybe even some tears? Clients who showed up for us on that first day and clients who came along later, you are the reason we get to do what we love. And always grateful to God for giving us this vision, & for guiding our steps. Happy 17th Birthday to Davao Hair, can’t believe you’re almost an adult 😅

Once you join the club, there’s no going back. Sorry, we don’t make the rules.

One of the things I love most about hair extensions is the versatility that comes with them.

This client came in wearing one row for fullness. It was time to replace her hair so she opted to go to 2 rows and add some length this time too, and just look at all that dimension 🤩

When your hair gets the upgrade it deserves ✨
Fresh color, seamless extensions, and waves for days.
Whether it’s your first install or just a little hair refresh — because sometimes your hair needs a glow-up too. 💁‍♀️

Meet Stephanie, she’s one of our associates at and . She’s been working double duty for us as we’ve been rebuilding Extended—she jumps at the chance to help and to learn, and we are so grateful for her incredible work ethic and always positive energy.

When she asked me to do her extensions, I didn’t even hesitate — it was an instant yes.
Taking care of the people who take care of us?
That’s a no-brainer. 💛

You can’t cut corners and expect seamless results.

A great install takes time, detail and a whole lot of blending magic. That means custom coloring the wefts and mixing tones to mimic how natural hair reflects light.

Both sets of hair belong to the same head—one she came in with and the other is what she left wearing.

Details matter, my friends. That’s where the difference is.

ChatGPT roasted us and here are the results:

Giving “sister wives, but make it fashion.” One of you looks like you’re on your way to a rustic wine tasting, and the other just escaped a silent yoga retreat and hasn’t stopped hugging people since. 😂

One of you looks like you live in neutrals and passive-aggressively edits your friends’ Instagram captions. The other one’s vibe screams, “I schedule rest days on purpose and I will not explain myself.”

Hahahaha I know which one I am…but tell me who you think is the caption editor and who schedules rest days?
