TYPES OF HAIR EXTENSIONS AND ALL YOU SHOULD KNOW

The first thing you should make sure is getting natural hair extensions. Although there are synthetic hair extensions, you will find a lot of natural hair, since you can’t iron or style the synthetic ones. These extensions add waves to your natural hair. They are usually glued, clipped, or sewn on the natural hair by combining additional human or synthetic hair.


CLIP-INS

They are the most affordable type of hair extension. All you have to do is apply them yourself in 12 to 15 minutes with the toupee-like clips that secure the band of the hair to the scalp.

SEW-INS

The sew-ins are the old types of hair extensions. You screw them to your scalp by braiding the natural horizontally ear to ear and sewing the weft of hair into the braid. A sew-in extensions cost around $300 and $65 for every track sewn in.

TAPE-INS

These are the favorite hair extensions. The tape-ins are hair segments attached to 2-inch thick double-sided keratin tape. They cost around $200 for partial extensions and could cost more if you have very thin hair.

GLUE-INS

These extensions are pretty expensive because of the work that’s involved in the application. It costs around $200-500. You apply the glue-ins by melting plastic keratin bond that is the size of a grain of rice around the natural strands.


HALO EXTENSIONS

These are the least invasive to the hair roots. Clear wire is set around the crown of your head that looks like a halo. The halo extensions are not secured to any strands since there is less to weight pulling on natural locks.

HOW LONG DO THE HAIR EXTENSIONS LAST?

Halo extensions last around one year if they are treated appropriately and not worn too often. However, the other extensions expire earlier.

DO HAIR EXTENSIONS DAMAGE YOUR NATURAL HAIR?

Hair extensions do not damage your natural and real hair if you are wearing them right. The amount of natural hair inside the extensions becomes thin over time, which makes it easier for the hair to pluck. Do ask experts about their hair extension experiences. Extensions are safe if applied carefully, and you will want to be in safe and good hands.
