You also want to look for hair extensions that are fully customizable with regard to color, cut, and style. This will allow your hair extensions to reflect your natural hair and your preferred style.

How To Apply Your Hair Extensions

We recommend finding video tutorials that demonstrate how to apply clip in extensions. The video should be quite short, because this is a very simple process with only a few steps. This is one of the big advantages of clip in extensions. For example, in order to apply clip in volume extensions, you would simply line up the extension’s part with your hair’s part and press down on the clips. Voila, you now have beautiful volume extensions.

The 3 Types Of Extensions

There are 3 basic types of clip in extensions: full volume, light volume root coverage, and length. Full volume extensions are 12-18” in length and extend about 2-3” past the shoulders. These hair extensions are designed to help women who are suffering from hair loss (minimal to severe). These extensions have a 5” by 6” base that clips in around the entire crown area. Light volume root coverage extensions are a little shorter at 12-16” in length, and are perfect for women with medium length hair who want a little more coverage. These extensions are also great for covering unwanted grey hairs. Finally, length extensions are great for adding extra length and thickness. The type of extension that you choose will depend on your particular hair, as well as your style needs. You can even pair extensions. For example, many women like to wear length extensions in combination with full volume or light volume root coverage extensions. It is all about finding the look that is right for you!
