Hair Extensions are a method of adding commercial hair to your hair. This method is used to conceal thinning or hair loss in concentrated areas as well as to add thickness, volume or length. ‘Tracks’ come from the common, long-lasting method of integrating wefts, known as the ‘track and sew’ method. The ‘tracks’ are usually braided in the direction of how the hair will fall. Toward the face or away, with or without a part, the tracks build the foundation of how the end result will look. The wefts can then be sewn onto cornrows, usually with a specially made, blunt-ended needle. The needle can be curved or straight. There are many different colors of specially-made thread to choose from, depending on what color of hair you will be integrating. With darker hair you would typically use darker thread. It should also be noted that when the hair is sewn in too tight, the client is at risk for hair loss that is the result of prolonged, tightly pulled hairstyles.
Invisible Hair Weave is a long lasting method of attaching commercial hair to your hair. Application generally takes about an hour. It will last about 8 weeks. Invisable hair weaving is a strand by strand method that allows very tiny pieces of hair to be attached directly at the root of your hair.
Wefts may also be bonded directly to the clients hair using special bonding glue. Care must be taken not to bond the wefts directly to the scalp, as it can cause sensitivities in some clients. A patch test is frequently recommended, as per manufacturer’s directions.
Infrequently, wefts may be clipped in, with specially made clips sewn to the wefts themselves. This makes for a more temporary style, and is easily removed. Clipped-in wefts may add temporary color, length or fullness perhaps for a single event, such as a prom or wedding.
Bulk hair can also be bonded to the hair, using many different methods, from clips to adhesive.
