If you wore hair extensions in the distant past, you’ll be pleased to know that the modern extensions of today can be found in various styles, and they can be attached using different methods that were not previously available. One popular style is a clip-in extension,

Human hair extensions come in many different qualities, and that hair quality will determine, in large part, how well they will look in your real hair, and how long they likely will last. Synthetic hair does not fare nearly as well, and Asian and African American hair strands are quite different in structure and texture, so be sure to purchase hair extensions that blend well with your natural hair.

Good human hair for extensions may come from Europe, and it may be grown dark. Some of it is naturally wavy, and some is straighter. European hair is used most often for human hair extensions, since it looks good and lasts for months if you take care of it.

Much human hair used in extensions starts off as dark and then has the color stripped and is re-tinted to all of the various shades available for sale. If you wish to have platinum blond hair, know that it has gone through chemical processes to get it that color. One of the disadvantages to using this hair is that you can’t change your color. If you buy hair extensions that have already been chemically colored, you can’t put additional color into them. Be sure to choose the color you want, in the first place. If your natural hair is highlighted or streaked, be sure you have the wefts created that will recreate the color in your highlights and look natural.

Those who sell Russian hair claim that it is one of the best types, and it is usually somewhat expensive. Before communism fell, hair was readily available, but since then, the people who live in these areas began chemically treating and coloring their hair, so it is not as useful for extensions anymore.

A weft, or a small curtain of hair, is held together at the top, and flows freely at the bottom. They can be hand-made, or made by a machine. Some people prefer man-made wefts, and some like the machine-made extensions better. It depends on your personal taste. Clip in hair extensions should be of excellent quality and easy for you to apply, so that they will look more natural and last longer.

Your choices basically come down to price and quality. If you want your hair to look the best, and the extensions to look the most natural, try to get at least European hand made wefts. Virgin or raw hair is harder to find and more expensive, but is worth it, if you can afford it.

The crown of your natural hair will cover the top track of the extensions if you use clip-ins, and this will make them blend in with your own hair. The number of extensions you’ll need depends on how thick or long your hair already is, and how much longer or thicker you want it to be. Take care of hair extensions the way you would care for your own long hair. Along with washing and conditioning, moisturizing is important, to substitute for the natural oils hair has when it is grown.
