What the appointment includes
The Unit Install appointment at our North Nashville shop covers placement and secure fitting of the unit and routine adjustments performed by your stylist. The service price is $150 and the scheduled time is 180 MINUTES. Styling is additional and quoted separately, so this visit focuses on fit, comfort, and base blending rather than finished styling.
Braid down is not included with the unit install; if you need braid-down or full styling, that will be scheduled as an add-on and will affect total time and cost. During the appointment we verify fit, make adjustments, and review parting and hairline placement so the unit lays comfortably for daily wear.
Factors shaping the final look
Several practical factors shape how the install looks and holds up: the unit base, how well it matches your natural hair, and local climate. Nashville’s humid subtropical weather — hot, humid summers and spring pollen — can influence styling choices and protective finishes discussed during consultation.
Comfort, security, and naturalness are a trade-off: a tighter seat can feel snug but hold better, while a looser install may need more adjustments. Because styling is charged separately, decide in advance whether you want the finished look the same day so we can reserve the right amount of time.
Aftercare, upkeep, and expectations
Expect a brief follow-up window after installation to check comfort and fit. Bookings are busiest in May, November, and December around graduations, weddings, and holidays, so schedule well ahead for pre-event installs. Styling is additional, so reserve extra time if you need a finished look for an event.
Daily wear depends on your routine — commuters and hospitality workers in North Nashville may prefer lower-maintenance installs that withstand long days and humidity. Discuss recommended check-ins and protective habits with your stylist; because styling is extra, ask which services best fit your week-to-week life and budget.
