Added extras -- in the hairdressing salon? (6,8)

I believe the answer is:

fringe benefits

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'added extras' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I cannot see how one could define the other.

'in the hairdressing salon?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'in' is within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fringe benefits that I've seen before include "offered to hairdressers, quite possibly?" , "Perks" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
