Today I brought a full hair extension piece, the way it works is that you lift the top bit of your hair up clip it in and then let the hair down on top of it but the problem is because my hair is only to the bottom of my neck and really thick when I put the piece in it looked far to thin and totally un-natural. It looks ok when I put it in a low side ponytail but my shorter hair still sticks out of the extension. Is there a way the I can make it look more natural??How to make a hair extension piece look natural??
You should of brought thicker extent ions. If you buy more extentions
try putting them on top so it makes them look the right thickness for
you're hair. I had the same problem i brought some extentions and because my hair is quite thick the top of my hair looks realy thick then
it just looked like i had aload of thin straggly dead hair on the ends of
my hair it looked horrible so i went and got some more extentions the
same ones and put them on top:) but then i lost them and then i went
and got some thick ones, but they wasnt real hair they was fake.
But they did look much better with the thickness of my hair.
Hope this helped :)
xxxHow to make a hair extension piece look natural??
curl ur hair then curl the extensions and tease them up a little so they match ur real hair but if ur extensions are synthetic and not human hair u cant curl them with heat or they burn.... so if they are wrap them in rollers and use a ton of hair spray and then blow cool air over them to lock in the curl
you need about 2 or 3 extension sets and put on in near the bottom of your head then put a buit more hair down and put in the second set a bit higher.
if this still doesnt look natural try cutting them shorter or making them look like layers.
If you straighten your real hair it could look more natural but sometimes fake extensions don't work out as well unless you get it done by a hairstylist
clip the hair in in sections, if you can... otherwise try curling your hair to take the focus from the length and straightness, hope this helps! x
dont wear them....
Ok, here are some top tips. Your hair and the extensions hair will appear disconnected, you will need to make them appear connected and there are some easy tricks to doing this.
Firstly have the front layers of the extensions trimmed starting from your shortest front layer. You can do this yourself if your confident. You just open the scissors, hold them on the extensions by your shortest layer and slowly close them as you slide down the hair. Do this a few times and repeat on the other side. Accuracy wont matter as this technique is done by eye, it the type of thing you cant mess up easily.
Secondly use the same technique to add some layers at the back corners of the extensions (the bits that sit on your shoulders). Scoop cut these the same way from your shortest layer down.
Thirdly, add some soft waves and texture to the extensions, poker straight can too easily look fake.
If you need any other tips just email me direct as I am hair extensions addict and have loads of experience cutting them for friends.
Oh and another tip is to try layered clip in extensions, rather than use a one piece system you can get extensions that have several strips and sit in layers on the hair, these blend really well and you don't need a stylist to fit them, to get this kind of clip in hair extension on-line visit www.headkandy.com Also they have a really good style guide and tips and tricks on their site.
