If you want to change your hair style then you have a few options. You can either visit a hairdressers and spend many hours, and a fair amount of money on a new style. Or you can use hair extensions. Hair extensions are a great way of changing your style because you can use them yourself.

Pre-bonded Hair Extensions

Pre-bonded hair extensions are a type of extension which are bonded directly to your hair. These are permanent and applied by a hairdressers. These are fairly expensive but are very accurate and high quality extensions.

The advantage of pre-bonded hair extensions is that they allow you to enjoy longer hair styles without needing to wait a long time for your hair to grow. Instead, you can visit your hairdressers and instantly get a longer style.

However, these types of hair extensions can be very expensive. They are also time consuming to apply.

Pre-bonded hair extensions are some of the most realistic looking extensions you can get. These will be brushed through and styled by your hairdresser. This means that they should blend in seamlessly with your natural hair. This should mean that the hair looks exactly like your real hair. Because of this, nobody should see that you are wearing any extensions.

Clip-in Hair Extensions

One of the biggest problems with permanent pre-bonded extensions is that they are expensive and need to be applied professionally. Another option is to use clip-in hair extensions. These clip in extensions can be clipped in yourself without the need of hiring a professional.

Simply part your hair and clip the hair underneath. When they are clipped in place you can then brush through to blend your hair with the extensions. You will find that clip in extensions look just as good as permanent extensions if they are fitted properly.

The only problem with these is that you need to take your time. You will also need to practice so that you can learn how to put them in properly.

Choosing Natural

Whether you choose permanent hair extensions, or clip in extensions, you should always choose natural human hair. Human hair extensions are the very best type you can buy. These are realistic and also feel like real hair. Natural human hair extensions are slightly more expensive than other types, but the extra cost is well worth it.

Choosing Pre-Bonded Hair Extensions

February 29th, 2012

Hair extensions have become an extremely popular way of changing your appearance in an instant. When choosing hair extensions you can choose between pre-bonded hair extension and clip in hair extensions.

Hair extensions are useful as they can alter the length or the volume of your hair. It’s important that you choose the right type of hair extensions and for this to be possible, you will need to learn about them.

Pre-bonded Hair Extensions

Pre-bonded hair extensions are the type of extension that is fitted by your hairdresser. These cannot be put in at home and will eventually come out. They cannot normally be reused which does make them fairly expensive.

The advantages of pre-bonded hair extensions is that they will remain in all the time. You don’t need to spend time putting them in yourself. However, they can become tangled and cause many problems.

If they are not fitted properly, then they can pull on your own hair which can even lead to hair loss or discomfort. If fitted correctly then there is no reason that they shouldn’t stay for a long time.

Pre-bonded hair extensions should not cause any damage when applied properly. The extensions should be able to stay in your hair for longer than five months at a time. The exact length of time your extensions will last for does depend on your own circumstances though.

For these pre bonded extensions to work at their best you must have a fair amount of hair already for them to be bonded to. As long as you have a few inches of hair then you should be able to use these extensions with good results.

Clip hair in Extensions

While Pre-bonded extensions do look great, you can get just as good results from Clip in hair extensions. The benefit of using clip in extensions is that they can be fitted yourself. There is no need to visit an expensive hair dressers to get extensions.

If you take time to fit these extensions properly then you should find that they look just as good as professionally fitted extensions.

Whichever type of hair extensions you choose, you will find that you will have the benefit of instantly enjoying long hair. There’s no need to wait a very long time for your hair to grow. As they are available in a variety of different shades and colours, it should be easy to find a suitable match for your hair colour.

5 Ways to Add Volume to Fine Hair

July 4th, 2011

Hi there!

Today’s blog reviews the most popular ways to add some oomph to fine hair and assesses how much damage you could be doing to your delicate hair-shafts in the process! As a hair care professional, who also has very fine hair, I’ve tried every possible method over the years and faced a lot of disappointment along the way!

Fine hair is not necessarily thinning hair, but it often looks that way. It has the advantage of being silky soft, but it also lacks body and volume and lies very flat to the head.

Some of the methods used to add body and volume to fine hair cause hair-shaft damage, so read on and find out the best – and worst – ways to thicken your hair:

1. Bleached highlights in fine hair will add volume and texture, but the highlighted sections need a good moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to counteract the drying effect.

2. Spritzing the roots with salty water to give it texture and ‘roughness’, is just asking for trouble for thin, fine hair. The same applies to hair-thickening products like gels and mousses which will certainly have a strong drying effect on your delicate hair and make it brittle.

3. The latest generation perms are good for giving root lift and general volume, but you’ll need to use a very Read the rest of this entry »

Do Hair Extensions Damage Natural Hair – The Facts

June 30th, 2011

Hi Bloggers!

This is the most common question I hear about human hair extensions and today I’m going to answer it in full.

Human hair extensions do not damage your own hair. When you hear about women who have had problems with hair extensions, the damage is usually the result of the technician or the wearer ignoring some basic rules.

Dry hair

Don’t have extensions fitted to hair that isn’t completely healthy. If your hair is dry and brittle before you have pre bonded hair extensions or wefts fitted, you won’t be able to use any oil-based conditioning products and have the regular trims you need to get your natural hair back to its best.

For hair that’s not in tip-top condition, it’s best to use temporary clip-in human hair extensions, that you can wear for just a couple of hours or up to 5 days at a time.

Brushing too hard

Clients who don’t care for their extensions properly tend to blame the extensions Read the rest of this entry »

Complete Guide to Hair Types & Textures in Hair Extensions

March 22nd, 2011

Today’s blog answers your questions about the different types of hair used in real hair extensions. First of all, let’s deal with Remy and non-Remy hair (and this information refers to full head ‘clip in’ hair extensions too).

At first glance it’s not easy to tell any difference, because all expensive or cheap hair extensions are sprayed with silicone before packaging, which makes the hair appear silky and smooth.

However, when you’ve washed your new hair extensions for short hair just once – you’ll quickly find out whether they are Remy or non-Remy!

Remy hair extensions

Remy hair extensions still have the cuticles intact and flowing in one direction from root to tip, like your own hair. This means that Remy extensions won’t tangle or shed when you brush them. ‘Cuticle correct’ Remy hair retains its shine and elasticity and is as easy to style as your own hair.
