How to Apply Hair Extensions

Apply Hair Extensions Method:


Long and Flowing


Step 1: Add Inches

Ken swept the model's hair back into a half-ponytail and clipped it from rest of her hair. He then parted the remaining hair lengthwise and attached an 8-inch weft from the Put On Pieces Human Hair Clip in Extension 14-inch set, near the part, securing the center clip first, then each side.


Step 2: Build Body


Next, Paves lifted a small section of hair from underneath the ponytail and attached a 1-1/2-inch weft directly beneath it. Bringing the same small section of hair back over the extension, he then attached a second 1-1/2-inch weft above it. This gave the hair more thickness and volume.


Step 3: Natural Tie


"It's important to incorporate pieces of your own hair as you style the extensions," Paves told us as he took pieces of the model's hair and the extensions and curled them together. Hot tools can be used on human hair extensions but never on synthetic pieces.


Step 4: Long and Luscious


Finally Paves attached a Long Curls Pinup Piece, (Or try Scunci 20-inch Curly Hair clip) into the base of the ponytail, between the elastic and where the hair gathered. He fluffed out the piece with his fingers, then applied some hair spray to lock the style in place.

Two Major types of hair extension.

STRANDS hair extensions technicians apply 20 to 50 strands of synthetic or natural hair to your own hair by weaving, heat fusing, gluing, clamping, or using waxes and polymers. Strands technique always involves attaching the extensions to your natural hair shaft by chemical means. So it is more detrimental to the natural hair and also they are not a good option for allowing your natural hair to grow out while you wear the extensions. While the strand hair extension does not cost as much as other procedures, there is a good deal of maintenance .These hair extensions normally have to be completely re-done every few months.

WEFT hair extensions are the best types of hair extensions. Its look like curtain of hair attached together at the top and free flowing at the bottom. These hair extensions are attached to your head by sewing them into a tiny braid made out of your own hair. This technique is very natural and no one can see the braids or wefts of hair unless you show them. Every 6 to 8 weeks to have your wefts taken out and put back in close against your scalp.
