Are you troubled by your hair’s size, thickness, quality, and color? You often wonder if you could alter their appearance within a few minutes, don’t you? They would enhance your personality, restore your confidence, turn heads wherever you go, and restore the smile on your face.

What you need are hair extensions with in-built clips that attach to your hair and remain firmly attached for as long as you want. They are easy to put on, come in various shades and lengths, and are ideal for all hair types. You have to spend little time looking after them, as they are low maintenance.

Before buying them, here are some things you might consider checking before placing your order.

Do they have clip-ins?

Extensions come in three types: glue, tape-in, and clip-in. It is better to avoid adhesive and tape-ins because they have many disadvantages. For example, you cannot attach them by yourself or remove them any time you want, and improper glue application might damage your hair and impede hair growth.

However, those with clips attached to them offer the benefit of quick installation, less maintenance, a wide range of shade options, and no side effects.

What hair are they made of?

Companies use either synthetic or human hair for hairpieces. Synthetic ones lack the natural softness and are highly prone to losing shape, melting, and tangling. They are not a suitable option when you must heat and curl since they aren’t resistant to heat.

Your best bet would be 100% Remy human hair, completely natural with intact cuticles running in a single direction. They blend effortlessly with your existing hair and don’t tangle despite repeated wear. You can blow dry, curl and straighten them according to your preferences without causing any damage. 

Do they have the required length and volume?

You will not get the look you’re after without ensuring the exact length and width of the hairpiece. Usually, extensions are available between 12 inches to 24 inches and 130 grams to 240 grams. As a rule, the more the length, the heavier they are.

Most experts recommend the extensions exceed no more than four inches of your original hair length. However, the specific length will depend on your height and how far back your hair falls from the ear. Clip-ins are best for adding volume to thin, damaged, or fine hair, and nothing works better for extra fine hair than seamless clip-ins.

How many shades are available?

Most companies will offer you four primary shades: blonde, brown, black and red, each consisting of further sub-types. For example, golden, pale ash, and strawberry are some options under blonde, while Beverly Hills, Hollywood Bronzed, Starlet, and Bel Air are available under brunette.

What do their customers say?

Before placing your order, you might want to browse their website, check the customer testimonials, and see if they were satisfied with the product. If there’s a before/after photos section, you might consider examining that carefully to get an idea about the product.

Before buying hair extensions, you must ask yourself these questions to ensure that you are completely satisfied and receive the best product. These will restore confidence in your personality, restore the smile on your face and enhance your overall appearance in just a few minutes.
