YOUR BASIC HAIR EXTENSIONS GUIDE

by - April 20, 2015

Ever wished your hair was longer or thicker for that special occasion? It may be your own birthday celebration, a wedding of a friend or a corporate party that you want to dress to impress more than the usual. But much to your disappointment, your hair has not grown long or thick enough to be heat-styled,colored, permed, straightened or trimmed the way you wanted to.The solution is not waiting for several months to grow your hair, or putting yourself on expensive hair growth treatments that may have strange side effects. The easiest way to have longer, fuller hair is to get human hair extensions. Find that intimidating? Here is your complete guide from Flaired Hair Extensions on how to finally have that longer, fuller hair.

1. Choose your hair. 

There are three types of hair used for hair extensions: synthetic hair, animal hair, and human hair. Synthetic hair is made of colored plastic strands which make for good wigs. Only certain types of synthetic hair can only withstand a certain heat before it burns out. Animal hair is much coarser and thicker than human hair so it is not advisable to use it for finer or thinner hair (also, it’s quite icky!) The best hair type is of course human hair especially if you want a natural look or a seamless blend between your hair and the extensions. Human hair allows you to treat the extensions like you own – you can heat style, color, perm, straighten or trim it to your taste.

 

2. Choose your hair extensions attachment.
You can braid, glue, sew, press and clip hair extensions to your hair or scalp in order for it to stay. One of the common ways to attach hair extensions is via snipping in micro-rings with hair strands, however, it can be uncomfortable as you have to adjust the way you wash and brush your hair.

One of the easiest and fastest attachment method is via one piece clip-on hair extensions. It allows you to quickly wear or remove hair extensions in a snap and by yourself, without need of extra tools. What differentiates “one piece” from multi-piece clip-ons is that you don’t need to put too many clips on your scalp – just one piece gives you a full head look.


3. Choose your hair extensions thickness
Once you have chosen to buy hair extensions, you may be faced with two choices – double drawn or single drawn hair extensions? Single drawn hair extensions typically have a V-shaped quality becausemost of the hair strands do not reach their prescribed length. For example, if you order 20 inches of hair extensions, only about 10% of those strands actually reach 20 inches and the rest are much shorter. On the other hand, double drawn hair undergoes a second process of selection where shorter hairs are removed by hand so that it has a solid length from root to tip.

That’s the basic information you need before getting your own hair extensions! Once you know these about hair types, attachment types and the difference between single and double drawn hair, you will bemore apt to inquire with your provider on what products best fit your fashion and lifestyle.



 I always wanted to experiment with my hair. I always wanted to have long hair but my hair growth is really slow. I saw hair extensions as the solution to my hair problem. Before finally deciding to have hair extensions, I used different kinds of full wigs to create a look for every occasion. But I wanted something that I can treat as my own hair. A year ago, I finally gave in and decided to have hair extensions.

What's good about having human hair extension is that you can straight, curl, bleach and color your hair as if it's really your own! On some days I had it super straight but most of the time I curl it using my trusted curling iron. I also decided to sport am ombre look. I had it in bright pink which eventually fades into red. A few weeks after, I decided to add purple on the ends.
