How much does a system repair cost in New York?

$80 – $450 for the unit, quoted as a written band before the order rather than on the chair. The price does not change by locality — there is no travel surcharge anywhere in New York. What does change your quote is base material, hair grade, coverage area and density.

How long does a system repair take in New York?

5–10 days. The consultation and template take about 45 minutes and can happen at your home anywhere in New York; the fitting itself is a separate appointment once the unit arrives.

How often will I need servicing in New York?

Every three to four weeks — roughly 14 visits a year. New York's humidity is what sets that interval; sweat, not manufacturing, is what ends most bonds here.

Do you fit a system repair at home in New York?

Yes, and most New York clients choose it. Free doorstep consultation anywhere in the five boroughs. Templating, fitting, servicing and repairs all happen at home to the same standard as a studio visit, at the same price.

Our fittings run to a fixed price band, so there is no upsell on the chair. We keep a fitting record for every New York client so replacements can be reordered without a second template.

Turnaround: 5–10 days
Servicing: Every three to four weeks
Best for: Wearers with a thinning front, torn skin base or faded colour.

How New York's climate changes this build

New York's climate is genuinely two different briefs a year apart. Summer here is hot and humid enough that a sealed skin base will lift at the perimeter faster than its rated life, and a subway platform in July adds another twenty minutes of standing heat to any commute. Winter flips it entirely: cold, dry outdoor air and forced-air heating indoors both pull moisture out of human hair, which is a different failure mode than humidity but just as real.

The practical result is that we specify differently by season rather than issuing one build and leaving it. Through summer we default to breathable lace or mono construction and a stronger adhesive rated for sweat; through winter the same base survives longer, but the hair itself needs more conditioning to stop it going dry and static.

What is included

Front-hairline refill when the first row starts to thin
Torn poly and split lace patched invisibly
Colour and grey-percentage refresh to match your current shade
Honest assessment — we tell you when a repair is not worth it

Where we fit a system repair in New York

New York does not yet have a studio — every consultation, template, fitting and service visit is a home visit, run on a scheduled route rather than booked one-off wherever possible.

We run Manhattan and the inner boroughs — Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx — on a shared weekday rota, batched by neighborhood so a visit to one client's building usually means we can offer a nearby time slot to the next. Staten Island and the outer edges of the metro run on a separate, less frequent rota.

For clients in a shared apartment or an open-plan office who would rather not have a fitting done there, we can meet at a private space near a subway stop on request.
