Where do these prices come from?

They are read from the service menus businesses publish on their own websites — 234 individual priced lines across 97 businesses in Sydney. They are not quotes, and businesses that publish pricing are not a random sample of the market.

How much do hair extensions cost in Sydney?

Application, maintenance and removal, as priced by the salons that publish it. This page is the Sydney cut of it.

The range in Sydney

Lower quartile: $96
Midpoint: $160
Upper quartile: $400

Half of the hair extensions prices published in Sydney sit between $96 and $400, with a midpoint of $160. That is drawn from 97 businesses in Sydney that publish this pricing, as collected on 25 September 2026.

Against the rest of the country

The midpoint in Sydney is $15 above the national midpoint of $145, or about 10 per cent dearer. That gap is between published price lists, not between quotes, so it describes how businesses advertise rather than what every appointment costs.

Why the range is so wide

The widest-spread category on this site after lightening work, and for a specific reason: most published lines are labour only, with the hair itself quoted separately or on consultation. A maintenance move-up and a full new installation therefore sit at opposite ends of the same category, and neither figure includes what the hair costs.

The other cities

Largest sample first. A city appears only where at least 25 businesses publish this pricing, because below that a single expensive salon moves the whole row.

What these numbers are, and are not

Every figure is computed from businesses’ own published service menus — 234 priced lines from 97 businesses in Sydney, collected on 25 September 2026. None of it is typed in by hand.

A published price is not a quote. What you are charged depends on your hair, your skin and how long the appointment actually takes, and many businesses quote on consultation rather than publishing at all. Nationally, 510 businesses in our catalogue offer this service and 510 publish a price for it. The ones that publish are not a random sample of the ones that do not.
