Discover bespoke hair extensions, premium hair quality and our exciting new Hairdreams MicroLines service, launching at Joshua Altback from October 2026.
At Joshua Altback Haircare & Beauty, we specialise in bespoke hair extensions in London, creating individual transformations based on each client’s natural hair, lifestyle and desired result.
Located in the Hampstead and South Hampstead area of North London, our salon has built a strong reputation for specialist hair extension services and natural-looking transformations.
We don’t believe that one type of hair extension is right for everyone. That’s why we offer a wide range of specialist extension methods and hair qualities from different suppliers, allowing us to create a bespoke solution around each individual client.
We are now excited to introduce Hairdreams extensions to our collection, giving our clients even more choice when it comes to premium hair, textures, colours, lengths and application methods.
And from October 2026, we will also be introducing Hairdreams MicroLines – a specialist hair enhancement system for clients experiencing thinning hair or reduced hair density.
Hair extensions have been an important part of our salon expertise for many years.
We were the first salon in the UK to use tape hair extensions, and over the years we have continued to expand the range of extension techniques and hair qualities available to our clients.
Today, our hair extension services include:
Having this range of techniques means that we can look at your individual hair and recommend an approach based on what you actually want to achieve.
Whether you’re looking for added length, more volume, thicker-looking hair, a colour transformation or a completely new hairstyle, choosing the right extension method is an important part of creating a natural result.
We don’t take a one-method-fits-all approach to luxury hair extensions in London.
Every client has different hair, different expectations and a different lifestyle. Your natural hair texture, density, condition, desired length, budget and how you normally wear your hair can all influence which extension method and hair quality are most suitable.
During your consultation, we consider:
We can then select the most appropriate combination of hair quality and extension method for you.
For one client, that could mean discreet tape extensions for added volume. Another may be better suited to microbonds, nanobonds or keratin bonds. Someone else may benefit from a weft system or, where hair density has reduced, a Hairdreams MicroLines consultation.
The aim is to create a result that works with your own hair rather than simply fitting you into a particular extension system.
We are delighted to be adding Hairdreams extensions to our specialist collection.
Hairdreams gives us access to a wider choice of premium human hair, including different textures, colours and lengths, allowing us to create even more individualised results.
One of the features we particularly value is the choice available for clients with naturally wavy or curly hair.
Beautiful hair extensions should look like they belong to you.
Matching the colour is only part of creating a natural result. Texture, movement, density and the way the hair falls can all make a difference.
For clients looking for curly hair extensions in London, Hairdreams offers an exciting additional option.
The new Hairdreams tape extensions have a naturally slightly curly or wavy texture, and the hair can also be ordered in three different curl patterns. This allows us to select a texture that can complement your own natural curl pattern more closely.
Hairdreams extension hair is also available in lengths up to 26 inches, giving us plenty of flexibility when creating longer hairstyles and dramatic transformations.
Tape extensions remain a popular choice for clients who want to add length, volume or both.
Our experience with tape extensions allows us to consider the individual placement, amount of hair and texture required rather than simply applying the same system to every client.
With the addition of Hairdreams, we can now offer even more options for clients looking for tape hair extensions in London, including different textures and curl patterns.
For naturally wavy or curly clients in particular, being able to work with hair that has movement already built into the extension can make a significant difference to the finished result.
We are also introducing Hairdreams wefts to our extension collection.
Wefts provide another option for adding length and fullness and can be considered alongside our other extension methods depending on your natural hair, desired result and lifestyle.
Having access to different systems means our consultation can focus on finding the most suitable option for you rather than trying to make every client fit the same method.
One of the most exciting additions to our hair extension service is Hairdreams MicroLines, launching at Joshua Altback from October 2026.
MicroLines are designed for clients who are experiencing thinning hair, reduced density or areas where their hair has become noticeably finer, particularly around the crown and top of the head.
Traditional hair extensions are generally used to add length and/or volume to existing hair. MicroLines offer a different approach, providing additional hair and fullness across a larger area.
This makes them an interesting option for clients who may not necessarily want longer hair but would like their hair to look and feel fuller.
Hairdreams MicroLines use a fine, lightweight structure into which real human hair is integrated.
The system is designed to work with your existing hair, adding additional fullness and coverage while allowing the finished style to look and move naturally.
There are different options depending on the amount of density required, hairstyle, length, colour and desired result, with customised solutions also available.
This makes MicroLines particularly interesting for people looking for an alternative to conventional hair toppers in London or who want to explore options for thinning hair without simply wearing a traditional wig.
Hair thinning can change the way your hair looks and feels, particularly when the crown or top of the head begins to lose density.
For some clients, conventional extensions may not be the most appropriate solution if there isn’t sufficient natural hair in the area where additional hair needs to be attached.
This is where hair extensions for thinning hair and specialist hair enhancement systems need to be considered differently.
Hairdreams MicroLines are designed to provide additional fullness and coverage over a larger area, making them an option we can discuss with clients experiencing reduced hair density.
A consultation is essential because every person’s hair and circumstances are different.
When considering hair extensions or a hair enhancement system, the finished appearance is only part of the decision.
It also needs to fit into your everyday life.
Your normal styling routine, maintenance requirements, work, holidays, exercise and how you like to wear your hair should all be considered when selecting an extension system.
This is another reason why we take a bespoke approach to hair extensions for volume and length.
The right method should not only create the result you want – it should also work for your lifestyle.
From October 2026, clients considering Hairdreams MicroLines in London will be able to arrange a consultation with our team.
During your consultation, we can assess your existing hair, discuss your concerns and understand what you would like to achieve.
We’ll look at factors such as your natural hair density, colour, texture, desired fullness and hairstyle before discussing the options available.
If MicroLines are appropriate for you, we can explain the system, maintenance requirements and the expected investment before you make a decision.
Our approach to hair extensions is based on experience, choice and bespoke design.
Rather than offering just one extension technique, we have developed a collection of different methods and hair qualities so that we can select what works best for each individual client.
From tape extensions and bonds to wefts and the new Hairdreams range, we can consider the hair itself as well as the application method.
With the introduction of Hairdreams, we can now offer an even greater choice of textures, colours, lengths and systems.
And from October 2026, Hairdreams MicroLines will add another specialist option for clients looking for additional fullness and coverage where their natural hair has become thinner.
Whether you’re looking for hair extensions in Hampstead, South Hampstead or elsewhere in London, our aim is to create a result that looks natural, feels comfortable and is suited to your individual needs.
If you’re considering hair extensions, we recommend starting with a professional consultation before deciding which method is right for you.
We’ll assess your natural hair, listen to what you want to achieve and explain the different options available.
Hairdreams MicroLines consultations will be available from October 2026.
If you’re looking for bespoke hair extensions in London, including tape extensions, microbonds, nanobonds, keratin bonds, wefts or specialist solutions for thinning hair, contact Joshua Altback Haircare & Beauty to arrange your consultation.
