Styling Tips & Techniques for Your New Hair Extensions
Styling Tips & Techniques for Your New Hair Extensions
Hi there!
You can curl and style all types of Remy hair extensions just like your own hair. Here are some tips on how to style your hair extensions for short hair safely and without heat damage.
Curling full head ‘clip in’ hair extensions
It’s best to curl your own hair before you attach the full head ‘clip in’ hair extensions, as it’s much easier that way. I also recommend that you also curl your clip-in hair before you attach it.
I place my ‘clip ins’ on the edge of my kitchen table and weigh the root end down with my thickest cookery books. This gives me easy access to the section of hair I want to curl.
Gentle sponge rollers
Sponge rollers are great, because they don’t cause any heat damage to real hair extensions. They give a firmer ringlet curl, which you can brush through if you want a cascade of glamorous ‘Hollywood Star’ waves!
Spray each section lightly with hair spray, then wind the hair around the roller and leave to dry for at least 20 minutes.
Then gently remove the rollers and you’ll have lovely, bouncy ringlets – brush through for smooth waves.
Plaits for romantic waves
Dry your extensions with cool air until almost dry. Then gather your hair at the nape of your neck or higher up and plait it. Fasten the end with a covered elastic band and give it a light covering of hair spray to set the waves.
Leave until dry and then unplait your hair for some lovely, natural waves. If you plait your hair before you go to bed, you’ll have stronger waves all ready for the next day.
Steam rollers
Steam rollers are a good choice for putting a nice wave in hair extensions for short hair, as they force hot steam through the hair section. This prevents excessive drying and gives a longer lasting curl.
Straight hair with volume
For straight hair with face-flattering volume, use smooth jumbo rollers on slightly damp hair plus hair spray. Avoid Velcro rollers which have tiny plastic hooks that grip your hair, because they will pull out strands from your real hair extensions.
Remy hair extensions
It’s not easy to find high quality cheap hair extensions from a local salon, because they have to make a high profit to pay for their overheads. If you buy your Remy hair extensions on the web, you’ll be amazed at how cheap human hair extensions are online.
Hair extensions can solve a lot of problems for women who’ve lost their self-confidence. And when you think how much it costs to have a straightening treatment or a curly perm these days, they needn’t add anything at all to your overall hairdressing costs!
If you use these methods and try to avoid using hot tongs/straighteners, your real hair extensions will stay looking glossy and healthy for a lot longer.
