Facts About Weft Extensions

Image
  Not everyone is born with naturally thick and voluminous hair. Thankfully, there is a solution: hair extensions! There are many options today, including  hair weft extensions , which are made with real human hair and sewn on a horizontal strip, creating a weft. The wefts or strips are then sewn into natural hair and secured at the roots with a bead. The process doesn’t take more than an hour and is painless. Once in place, the weft extensions can last up to a year. But since hair grows, you may need to advise your client to come back every six to eight weeks to readjust their wefts. Your clients may have questions about weft extensions, so it's important to have the facts ready to answer their inquiries.

Stick-tip hair extensions  can add more dimension, length, and volume to your hair. However, they require proper care and maintenance to keep them in good shape for a long time. Stick tips have a long and thin stick-shaped bond on top of every extension strand, which is attached to your hair with a micro-tube or micro-ring. The rings or tubes are flattened with pliers to keep them in place. Here, we’ll give you a few tips to wash and maintain these extensions.   Brush before washing   Always brush your  stick-tip hair extensions  before you wash them to prevent tangles.
