Weft hair extensions are a great way to add length and volume to your hair. Here are four popular methods to apply them:
Sew In Method for Weft Hair Extensions
Sectioning: Begin by parting your hair. This helps you identify the area where you’ll attach the extensions.
Braiding: Create a tightly braided section of your natural hair. A neat braid provides a stable base for the extensions.
Measuring: Measure the weft hair extensions to ensure they fit the braided section properly.
Attaching: Using a needle and thread, carefully attach the ends of the weft to the braid. This semi – permanent method can last 8 – 20 weeks with proper care.
Clip In Method (for Double Weft Hair Extensions)
Clip Preparation: Sew clips onto the weft. This step is usually done in advance for ready – to – use clip – in extensions.
Hair Parting: Create a horizontal part in your hair. This allows you to easily place the extension.
Clipping: Clip the weft securely to your own hair. This method is quick and easy to remove, making it ideal for temporary style changes.
Glue In Method for Weft Hair Extensions
Hair Parting: Part your hair to expose the area where you’ll apply the extension.
Glue Application: Apply glue to the upper edge of the weft. Make sure to use a hair – safe adhesive.
Pressing: Press the weft along your natural hair closest to the scalp. Hold it in place until the glue dries. This method provides a more seamless look but requires careful application.
Micro Weft Method for Weft Hair Extensions
Hair Parting: Make a horizontal part in your hair to access the area near the scalp.
Ring Placement: Place a micro ring on the needle. The micro ring will be used to secure the extension.
Grasping: Use a hook to grasp both your natural hair and the hair extension.
Securing: Squeeze the micro ring firmly with pliers to attach the extension to your hair. This method is more discreet and less bulky.
No matter which method you choose, always follow proper care instructions to keep your weft hair extensions looking great.
