Hair Extension Length Guide — 16", 18", 20", 22", 24"

The length on the package isn't always the length you'll see in the mirror. Here's how every extension length actually falls — by your height.

Extension length is measured from the top of the bond to the very tip of the longest strand — but where that tip lands on your body depends entirely on your height and where the extensions are installed. Here's a realistic guide.

16 inches

Falls at collarbone to just below on most women 5'4"–5'8". Great for adding fullness or a subtle bump in length.

18 inches

Falls mid-chest. The most requested length at Infinite — versatile, doesn't feel dramatic, wears well daily.

20 inches

Falls to bra-strap or just past. The sweet spot for clients who want a noticeable length transformation without going full mermaid.

22 inches

Falls mid-back. Best for taller clients or anyone wanting statement length. Requires slightly more density to look proportional.

24 inches

Falls lower back to waist depending on height. Requires the most maintenance, the most bundles, and the most attention to nightly care.

How to pick

Bring reference photos to your consultation and stand in front of our mirror — we'll measure exactly where each length falls on you.
