About Locks of Hair - 35+ Years Hair Extension Expertise
Real Hair Solutions from Someone Who Gets It
Okay, so you want to know what we're really about? We're based right here in Edmonton, and honestly? This whole online business started because so many of you kept asking where to find quality extensions that actually last. After 35+ years in the hair industry, I figured it was time to share everything I've learned (and trust me, that's a lot).
Our Story
Okay, so here's how this all started. Beautiful hair isn't just about how it looks. It's about that confidence you feel when everything just works. You know what I mean? Founded here in Edmonton, Locks of Hair came from a simple idea: everyone deserves access to quality hair extensions without the guesswork and disappointment.
What makes us different? Well, it's not just our premium extensions (though they're pretty amazing). It's the fact that everything you see here has been personally tested, worn, and approved by someone who's been doing this since 1988. I'm not just selling you products. I'm sharing what actually works.
Meet Cara Eyre: Your Hair Extension Expert
At the heart of Locks of Hair is me, Cara Eyre. I write everything you read on this site, answer your questions, and yes, I've tried pretty much every product we sell.
*"Proudly Canadian and trained in British Columbia, I have been a licensed cosmetologist since 1988, bringing over three decades of artistry and expertise to the beauty industry. As both a published author and recognized beauty authority, my passion lies in working with luxury extensions and creating custom looks that actually work for real life. Every client experience is guided by precision, elegance, and a dedication to creating results that make you feel like yourself, just with better hair. With roots deeply grounded in Canada and a career that spans decades, I keep learning new techniques and sharing what actually works, one look at a time."*
With over 35 years hands-on experience, I personally select every product we carry, create all our educational content, and answer your hair questions with insights that only come from decades of actually doing this work. And yes, I really did write a book about all this!

What You Can Expect From Us
Listen, here's what nobody tells you about buying hair extensions online - it's usually a total guessing situation. Not here. Let me break down what you actually get:
Quality That's Been Put to the Test
Not gonna lie, I'm pretty obsessive about testing products. Every extension in our collection has passed my personal standards. If it tangles after one wash or doesn't hold up to real life, it's not making it onto this site.
Real Answers from Real Experience
Questions about texture matching? Wondering how long something actually lasts? Need help choosing? I personally handle your questions because after 35 years, I've probably dealt with your exact situation before.
