Hair weaving is another safe way to apply extensions and test the effects without using chemicals of spending a lot of money. It is a simple process in which you basically sew in the extensions. Though it should be done professionally so it is neat and can last longer.
For the heat seal extensions, synthetic fiber hair is attached to the natural hair and lightly heated to create a seal. The seal lasts for upto four to six months. Micro link extensions are attached on each individual strand using a plastic ring to secure the real hair and extension hair. This technique can last up to three months and can be done at home or by a professional.
Ultra sonic extensions are applied using a keratin based polymer and an ultra sonic wave. This is popular, yet pricey, because it does not damage the hair like chemicals and heat-based treatments would. Hair bonding is a more common technique but it also damages the most because of the use of glue. It can last for up to a week and easily be removed.
It is important to note that the end result depends most on the quality of application and daily care
