When you feel like a change of hairstyle, but you can’t wait for your hair to grow, then hair extensions are an easy way to instantly add length and volume to your hair. These days, hair extensions are being used by everyone, not just the celebrities; they are easy to use, affordable, and trust us, you really can’t see the join! In fact, that girl with the beautiful, long, flowing locks that you were admiring yesterday could well have been using hair extensions. If you have considered using hair extensions, then here are six things that you should know.

1. What hair extension method to chose?

There are lots of different types of hair extension methods, and the one you choose will depend on personal preference, your hair type and how much you want to spend. Clip-in extensions will work with any type of hair, weaves are usually best for curly hair such as Virgin Brazilian curly hair bundles. Fusion extensions cost the most and will take the longest amount of time to put in, but they will last for up to four months.

2. You will get what you pay for

With hair extensions, you really do get what you pay for. If you just want to try out a new style or wear extensions for a special occasion, then, synthetic hair will be the best and cheapest option. If you want to leave your extensions in for a long time and be able to treat them just as though they were your own hair, then you will need to pay the extra for real human hair extensions.

3. Make sure that your stylist had experience with hair extensions

Check with a stylist and make sure that they have had experience with hair extensions, before you go ahead and accept their advice. Not all stylists are used to fitting and styling hair extensions, so they may not be able to fit them properly, nor will they be able to properly advise you on the best types of extensions for you.

4. Permanent hair extensions can seriously damage your hair

When you chose to go for permanent hair extensions, keep in mind that, potentially, it can damage your hair, cause headaches, patchy hair loss, baldness or scalp bleeding, especially if they are left in for a long time. That’s why it is important that you go to follow up appointments with your stylist and you take good care of extensions. Hair extensions need to be treated in the same careful way as you would treat your own hair. If you don’t want to take any risks of damaging your hair, then we recommend you to try clip-in hair extensions that you can place and remove any time you want.

5. Cutting and styling hair extensions

The best hair extensions should blend in perfectly with your natural hair, and the best way to do that is to have your hair like deep wave Malaysian virgin hair extensions cut once the extensions are in. You can also colour extensions, curl them, wash them and style them. Good hair extensions should last you a good few months and you will be able to style them just as you would your own hair.

6. Try clip-in extensions first

If you want to try something a little less permanent, then clip-in extensions are the best option. As the name suggests, they clip into your natural hair and you can take them out again when you want to. They can feel a little bit heavy and you shouldn’t wear them to bed, but if you take care of clip-in extensions, they can last for quite a long time.
