Add Hair Length By Hair Extensions

 Human Hair Extensions come in two different styles. There is the strand and there is the
weft. The strands are supposed to look the most natural, but they are much more time
consuming and if you are having it done at a salon, they will be more expensive, too.
Wefts are wider strips of hair and as such, are easier to attach. Hair extensions
come in all the colors of natural hair, though some colors are more plentiful than
others. The handmade type of weft is best.

The wefts you choose should be made of the best quality of hair you can afford. If
you want to look your best, do not use synthetic hair. The “European” hair is good
quality but virgin or “raw” hair is even better because it has never been subjected
to chemical processing. Virgin hair is also the most expensive as it is harder to find.

Hair Wefts are put in by lifting up the top layers of your hair and braiding cornrows in
horizontal lines around your head. The wefts are then woven into the cornrows. When
you pull your natural hair back down over it, you should not be able to tell the
difference between your hair and the hair extensions.

If you are going for an exceptionally long-haired look, you will need more corn rows
and more wefts. If all you need is to add some volume, you will only need a few.
Regardless of how many are used, the size of the corn rows and wefts should vary some
as does the natural way in which your hair grows.

When the job is finished, you can comb your hair over the extensions and consider
your new extensions as part of your natural head of hair. This includes taking care
of the extensions as carefully as you would your own hair.
