We only provide basic services, like haircuts, in conjunction with our specialty services, color & extensions. There aren't even enough words to say to recommend this beauty! I went in to get my NBR (natural beaded rows) extensions raised and a touch up on color for my roots. She perfected my blonde, added in more hair for fullness and cut it to a seamless blend.

Invisible Bead Extensions utilizes rows of extension hair that wrap around the head in a horseshoe shape. Typically, an IBE application is made up of between 1-3 rows of hair. The rows or hair are attached by anchoring a row of beads in a horseshoe around your head, and then stitching the extension hair to it.
NBR utilizes rows of extension hair that wrap around the head in a horseshoe shape. Its attached by first anchoring a row of thread and beads into your natural hair, then stitching the extension hair to that row of thread. Typically, an NBR application is made up of between 1-3 rows of hair, and the whole process takes between three to four and a half hours from start to finish.
Crown Extensions hair pieces create a beautiful mane with fullness and volume on the top of your head. They are completely customizable to your look and pair nicely with other extensions methods, like NBR, for added length. We offer two different types of crown extension pieces- temporary and semi-permanent.

So I decided to wait to write a review I wanted to see how these extensions would compare to other ones I’ve had. And I can tell you after 2 months these are still hands down the best extensions I’ve ever had. I have incredibly thin hair and Julia has made me feel more beautiful than I ever thought I would. The money is 10000% worth it. I’ve used EVERY type of hair extension out there but I will never use anything else other than IBE and NBR ever again. Get the hand tied extensions. You won’t regret it.

Julia and Brandon, affectionately known as Dr. J and The Kiid, are seriously the BEST! They will transform your hair to help you look and feel like the rockstar you are! I appreciate the passion that Julia brings to her work, always seeking out the newest and best techniques for her clients. Julia is a woman of grit, style, detail and intention. She is open, honest and sets realistic expectations... and then works her magic to make the seemingly impossible, possible. You will leave her salon with a new found confidence and respect for yourself. Trust me, just make the appointment!

My hair has been in Julia's hands for years, and I can't imagine it any other way. She consistently delivers a positive and professional experience, during the appointment and beyond. I have had NBR by her and now have IBE extensions. With either method, my color is spot on, the blend and cut are perfect, and the hair is so comfortable, it feels like my own. She is constantly working to improve her skills, offerings and the client experience - and it shows. Plus, she makes it fun! Be prepared for lots of laughs, and fabulous hair!

I have been seeing Julia for hair extensions since the beginning of 2020 and she is so great at what she does! She offers IBE extensions which I love and nobody else in the area offers them! I had NBR extensions before but IBE is so much better for me. Julia takes great care of you and will make work with you to achieve the look you want! Most recently she switched me to 1 row of IBE plus a crown extension. Crown extensions are also not common around Raleigh and she is one of the few people who can do them! If you have thinning hair at your crown/part I’d encourage you to look into it! I trust

I enjoyed the entire process of getting my extensions. From the initial consult through the application/installation process, Julia was so fun and energetic. Not many people can make sitting in a chair for an extended period of time an enjoyable experience, but she's got it down! Not to mention the work she did was fantastic! It's been a week now, and I absolutely love my new hair! I am still in shock at how well the color turned out and how well blended the extensions are with my natural hair. If you decided on the Natural Beaded Row route for your hair, you will not be disappointed if you choose

I rarely write reviews (especially about salons) but I am so in love with my hair after visiting Julia at Intentions I just had to! I have Natural Beaded Row Extensions from Julia and could not be happier with them. The color is exactly what I was looking for and she keeps my hair looking healthy but bright blonde! I have been to a lot of salons and she is by far the best! Shes fun and easy to talk to. I used to dread my hair appointments but now I look forward to chatting with Julia each time!! Can't recommend her enough!!

Julia is amazing. She has been coloring and cutting my hair since I moved to NC 4 1/2 years ago. She also did my hair as well as my bridesmaids hair for my wedding. She is always professional and I trust her with all my hair needs. I use and love several of the J Beverly Hills products including the control shampoo and condition and dry shampoo. I can't wait for my first keratin smoothing treatment.

Julia has been styling my hair for close to 9 years! Being someone that really doesn't seek out change, I have always felt comfortable letting Julia switch up my hair. She pays attention and learns about her customers in a way that allows her to style their hair to compliment their personality. She is always on trend and is passionate about hair and the newest techniques. I am sporting her latest trend #NBR and absolutely love it. She is a perfectionist and wants her customers to be 100% satisfied. I can guarantee you will leave Intentions with the best color you have ever had :)
