All about Clip-In Hair Extensions:
Clip-in hair extensions are one of the most popular and easiest at home option available. Whether you’re looking for a long luscious look or versatility, or ready-to-wear option, clip-in extensions are definitely worth investing in! But how do clip-ins compare to other hair extension methods? We’ll explain!

What are Clip-In’s??
These removable and reusable extensions attach to your hair with pressure clips. They’re easy to attach and remove on your own, blend in with your natural hair, and come in a variety of lengths thickness and colors.

What we really love about clip-ins is they are ready-to-wear. You can easily install them yourself in minutes to add dimension without making a huge commitment.

Want to add bright stripes of color for a one-time look? Or are you looking for soft highlights to blend in with your natural color? Clip-ins are a great, easy alternative to more involved methods like tape-in and hand tied extensions that have to be installed by a certified stylist.

With proper care, clip-in hair extensions last at least 6 months if worn regularly and even longer if worn only occasionally. Regular maintenance, combined with quality hair care, makes these extensions ideal for a long term temporary alternative to more semi permanent extension implementation.

Clip-ins can be used as many times as you desire.When not in use, make sure to store your extensions nicely in the packaging purchased with them,so they’ll be ready for use whenever you need them.

Truth About Hair Extensions
Hair extensions have become increasingly popular over the years, especially as beauty lovers everywhere have taken to social media to share their inspo. Extensions are a huge part of the hair styling world, but they’re also a frequently misunderstood accessory.

Hair Extensions Add Extra Weight
There’s no getting around it. Especially when getting professional methods applied for the first time, the added weight can feel a bit weird on the head at first…

Most people adjust to this rather quickly, but the sensation may feel similar to when you’ve had your hair pulled into a tight updo or ponytail all day. This can often lead to some short, temporary discomfort, especially for first-timers.

High-Quality professional hair Isn’t cheap
If you want to achieve longer locks, getting enough hair is super important!Purchasing quality hair extensions requires money, so you’ll want to be sure you’re getting good value for what you’re paying, right?Our hair extensions are backed by the company guarantee against defects and stand by their product!

TLC is #1
We take great care to source and produce the highest quality hair possible but how long they last depends entirely on how well you care for them.

Many extensions are meant to last up to six months (although some people have told us they lasted even longer!) but this requires a special care routine. Brushing properly, applying the right products in the proper way, and utilizing extension-friendly styling techniques are all crucial in ensuring a long and healthy life for your hair.

The Truth About Removal of Extensions
When you first get your hair extensions out, it may suddenly feel like your own hair is so thin ,you might even wonder, ‘is my hair thinner now than before I wore extensions?

This is a perfectly normal thought, and don’t worry! You just got used to having more volume. In addition, we’ve seen a lot of ladies freaking out when their hair seems to be shedding like crazy after their extensions are removed. Don’t panic. This is totally normal we lose 80 to 100 hairs a day and when extensions are in it doesn’t shed until they are removed!

Here’s the thing: your hair sheds naturally every day. While wearing extensions, the hair that would have naturally fallen out stays with the bunch (whether sealed between the tape-in wefts, secured in the bead, or fused in with the kera-link bond or hand tied ). Finally, when it comes time to remove them, those little strands get loose from the bonds.

It may take a few days for them to fully come out, so don’t be alarmed when you pull loose hair after getting your extensions removed.

When you think of hair extensions you might picture thick, luscious locks that hang past your booty .Those insta-worthy hairstyles on social media are trending, But while we love hair extensions for length, they can transform all types of styles, including fine limp hair, short hair or even in the fringe area for thickness or length.

 How to add some serious length to short hair

For those with short hair and want to tack on some noticeable inches, keep reading. Before adding fullness and length, be sure you have enough natural hair to achieve a believable look.

In order to add drastic length with hair extensions, we recommend that the hair is past the occipital bone. If the hair is not past the occipital bone, it’s nearly impossible to achieve a desired blend. Why? If there is not enough length to the natural hair, there is no room to texture or blend the extensions.
