Hair extensions are a popular way to add length, volume or colour to your hair. They come in a variety of lengths and shades, so you can find the perfect match for your needs. But with so many options available, it can be tough to know where to start. We will provide you with all the information you need to make a decision about hair extensions.
Types of Hair Extensions
There are two main types of hair extensions: human hair and synthetic hair. Human hair extensions are more expensive, but they look and feel more natural. Synthetic hair extensions are less expensive, but they can be less manageable and more prone to tangling.
Hair Extension Application Methods
There are also a variety of ways to apply hair extensions. Some of the most common methods include:
- Clip-in extensions: These are the easiest to apply and remove at home, making them a good option for occasional use.
- Tape-in extensions: These are applied with double-sided or single sided tape and can last for 4-6 weeks. We recommend using our Easitape Hair Extension Tape Tabs for complete ease of application. For removals we would advise our Hair Extension Remover for easy removal of tapes.
- Weave extensions: These are sewn into your natural hair and can last for 6-8 weeks.
- Fusion extensions: These are bonded to your natural hair with keratin and can last for 3-4 months.
- Nano Bead: These are strands of hair that are attached using small silicone-lined beads that are clamped onto your natural hair. They can last for 8-10 weeks.
