About Mary-Claris Hair Extensions & Beauty Products
Hair extensions are a specialised corner of the beauty trade, closer to a fitting than to a haircut, and the result depends as much on matching colour and texture as on the application itself. Mary-Claris Hair Extensions and Beauty Products works from 549 Bernard Avenue in downtown Kelowna, along the city's main commercial street and a short walk from the waterfront.
Extension work divides into several methods, among them tape in, hand tied wefts, micro links, clip in pieces and wigs, and they differ in cost, in how long they last and in how much upkeep they demand. Hair type matters too, since synthetic and human hair behave differently under heat and washing. Anyone new to it should expect a colour match and a consultation before anything is ordered or fitted, and should ask directly about the maintenance schedule, because most methods need adjusting every few weeks rather than being a single purchase and done. Further information sits at maryclaris.com.
Bernard Avenue is easy to find and harder to park on. The street has metered spaces and there are lots within a block or two, both of which tighten through the summer festival season, so allowing an extra ten minutes is realistic. Appointments in this line of work run long, the first one especially, and the valley's dry summer heat is worth raising while you are there, since strong sun and lake water both take a toll and change what aftercare is needed.

Where to shop in Kelowna: three centres and a market
