Tips To Keep Your Hair extensions Healthy

Hair extensions are a wonderful way to add highlights, thickness or simply make your hair longer. While they can improve your look dramatically, if they’re not taken care of properly, they won’t do much for you. These simple tips will help you take the best care of your hair extensions so that they will last a long time and you will get your moneys worth.

  1. Be gentle. One of the most important things about hairextensions is that you have to baby them. When you are brushing your hair, be gentle. Without the proper treatment, your hair extensions will get damaged quickly.
  2. Wash with moisturizing hair care products. This step is especially important if you are using clip in hair extensions because the hair will not get any of the moisture from the natural oils your scalp produces. Moisturizing hair care products will keep your hair healthy. If you are longing for shine, use a serum. Many hair care products that promote shine have a drying affect on hair.
  3. Don’t forget to deep condition. Once a week you want to deep condition your hair extensions. Leave it on the hair for approximately 20 to 30 minutes and rinse. This extra TLC will give your hair an extra moisturizing boost.
  4. Keep those ends trimmed. No matter what you do, your hair extensions will inevitably get split ends. The best way to keep split ends from getting out of control is to regularly trim them. Trim the ends of the hair every 6 to 10 weeks. Keep in mind that you don’t want to trim too much, otherwise you will quickly lose the length of your hair. You can either do it yourself or have a professional trim them.
  5. Use a heat protectant. When drying your hair extensions you will need to take extra care. There are a number of heat protective sprays that you can buy but it is wise to turn down the level of heat on your hairdryer to prevent damage. This simple step will prevent breakage and keep your locks looking great a lot longer.
  6. Moving around in your sleep can leave hair extensions tangled and knotty. It can be time consuming and painful to remove these tangles and it can damage your extensions. Tie your hair up in a loose bobble before you go to sleep and this will help to keep your extensions tangle free.
  7. If you are planning on going abroad, swimming pool water, sand and the sun can cause havoc with your hair. If you do want to go swimming, it is wise to ensure that your extensions stay dry as the chlorine in the pool can cause your hair to become discoloured. The salt in the sea can cause your extensions to become matted and tangled. Try to keep hair covered to protect your extensions from the heat of the sun.
  8. Visit your stylist every four to six weeks to have the extensions lifted back up your scalp.


Follow these tips to keep your hair looking Healthy throughout the year.

Net Hair Weaving

  • A net weave is a type of hairextension used on people experiencing severe hair loss. The basic process involves applying a thin net over the head, securing it to the natural hair, and then sewing hair extensions on to the net. When finished, it will look as if the person has a full and healthy head of hair. Net hair weaving is less stressful on the hair than a regular sew-in because the net acts as a barrier between the weight of the weave and the natural hair.To maintain the extensions, it's necessary to return to the salon for maintenance every other week. With proper care, the net weave should last two to three months.
  • One of the biggest advantages of investing in a hair net when deciding to wear hair extensions is that it provides complete versatility. You no longer have to worry about where to part your hair, your cornrow braids showing, imbalance of braid placement, lumpy hair, scalp issues or anything else. The fact that you are sewing the weave hair directly to your hair net, allows you to sew in your weave in any direction you want.
  • Before sewing the net to the head, braids or tracks need to be made to anchor the net. The number of braids made will depend on the length and condition of your hair, but a minimum amount of four braids is usually needed to anchor the hair net on all four sides of the head. Once you've made the anchor braids you're ready to sew on the net.
  • Another great advantage of wearing hair nets is that you’re not confined to one way of cornrow braiding your own hair. When wearing a hair net, you can choose to either braid your hair horizontally or in a circle, it does not matter. Since the braids will be completely covered anyway, their purpose becomes simply to add extra security for your extensions to be sewn-in.
  • Your natural hair must be maintained while you are wearing a net weave. Wash your hair regularly and use a hair dryer to prevent excess moisture and mildew from developing on your hair. For a detailed photo example of net weaving.

Hand Tied Weft VS Machine Weft


A hand-tied weft is essentially a seam that holds all of the base ends of the hair together and is manually woven into the weave by a human and custom attention is given to each weave whereas a machine weft is hair that is fed into a machine and weaved tightly into the seam, this happens in a manner similar to that of the sewing machine.

Benefits of a hand-tied weft :-
  1. Firstly, the hand-tied weft is usually significantly slimmer than the standard machine-tied weft and the slimmer the weft the easier it is to hide and less-likely for someone to detect if they touch your head. Hair that is machine-wefted tends to be bulkier because the weave itself needs to be hefty so the machine can get a good enough hold of the hair. This is an important factor because no-one wants anyone to see or feel their weave; it is the horrid tell sign of hair extensions.
  2. Secondly, another great benefit of hand-tied hair extensions is that the hair on a hand-tied weft is much more securely attached to the weft. This means that each strand of hair will remain attached to the weft much longer than their counterparts which are machine-sewn. Hair from hand-tied wefts does not shred because of this and therefore the hair extensions last longer. They don't thin out like machine-wefted hair extensions therefore have a much longer life span.
However, since they are harder to make and they take longer time to complete, they usually cost a bit more.

Differences:
  • The weft of machine tied hair is thicker than hand-tied weft and it seems easier for weaving than hand-tied ones. Hand-tied weft is micro thin and barely visible, so it is more undetectable and flexible, but not many hair stylists know how to weave the hand-tied hair appropriately. So, you'd better consult your hair stylist first before ordering.
  • Hand tied wefts are made by tying strands of hair around a strong weaving thread; this process is done by hand. Our hand tied wefts are much thinner than machine wefts because of the precision involved, and lay flat on the scalp. Machine wefts are made by sewing strands of hair together with a hair sewing machine.
  • Hand-tied wefts are tufts of hair sewn or tied together meticulously by hand using a strong piece of weaving thread. If they are done properly, hand-tied wefts can actually last a very long time.  Another thing that as good with hand-tied wefts is that they are not very bulky or noticeable when you put them on.
  • Hand-tied wefts are thinner and more flexible than machine-tied wefts. The weft is flatter and allows the Remy hair extensions to lay closer to the head giving a more natural look. As the hair underneath grows the flexibility of hand-tied wefts helps to keep the weft from sticking out from the undergrowth. Typical hand-tied wefts come in pieces about 24 inches in width. When sewn in, they can be folded over to best fit the track. The weft is flexible so it will not stick out or cause lumpy areas around the crown. Micro hand-tied wefts are another option found mainly in Asian hair. These wefts come in 8 to 10 inch pieces with wefts sewn closer together. High quality hand-tied wefts tend to last longer without shedding when they are put in by an experienced technician.
  • Machine wefts are easier to use and can be found in most hair supply stores. They are the most common type used. Indian Remy hair made with a machine weft can be soft and somewhat flexible. Machine weft hair will also last a long time without shedding. These wefts are easier to put in as the stylist can simply start on one end, sew in the weft, and then cut it at the end of the track. Machine wefts also work well when using clip-on wefts, or when bonding the hair to the scalp.

Hot and Cold Fusion Hair Extensions

Whether you are looking for length or volume, hairextensions gives you the ability to create your dream hairstyle. Two of the most popular methods used in hair extensions are cold and hot fusion. Though the methods have their differences, both offer the ability to improve your hair texture and body.


  • Hot fusion is a strand method attached at the keratin based tips with a heating element. Hot fusion hair extensions are also known as keratin hair extensions and tip hair extensions. They are applied to your natural hair in small ‘bundles’ with a heated keratin adhesive. Since your hair is already made of 90% keratin (a protein compound,) this method is actually more gentle on hair than regular glue is.
  • Hot fusion hair extensions last anywhere from 2-4 months and take about 2 hours to install. With hot fusion hair extensions you can do a variety of hair styles including up-dos and styling your hair down.

Cold Fusion Hair Extensions:-
  • Cold fusion is also known as micro link, or i-tip.  It is another strand method that is applied by weaving  small sections of hair through a micro link tube. To install you use weaving tools and pliers to weave the small sections of hair.
  • Cold fusion  hair extensions were created to be a gentle alternative than keratin hot fusion hair extensions. Cold fusion hair extensions does not use heat to apply the hair extensions to your hair. This is a no heat hair extensions method that bonds hair via a ultra sound applicator. It is a more updated extensions method that was created to be a lot more gentle on your natural hair than hot fusion.
Conclusion:-
  • Cold fusion extensions will last up to six months. Heat fusion extensions can be expected to last up to four months. Both methods require monthly tightening to avoid damage to your natural hair.

  • Both fusion methods can result in a smooth finished look that is devoid of any bumps that are inherent in the sew-in method of attaching extensions. Using the micro clamps in the Cold Fusion method may help to create a flatter look and feel than that of the Regular or Hot Fusion but that may be in the eyes of the beholder.

Know How Long Your Hair Extensions Lasts?

The most important factors involved in the use-span of hairextensions are: extension type, bonding technique, and maintenance quality. The composition of hair is the first major choice that impacts extension longevity. While fiber hair is cheaper, it only lasts 3-6 months. Virgin Remy hair extensions, which are made from human hair, last up to a year.

The second key to maximizing the use-span of extensions is bonding style. Glue is the cheapest technique, but it can damage virgin hair extensions and only lasts a week. Fiber Remy hair extensions are suggested when gluing. Tape-weft techniques last 1-2 months. Woven techniques increases extension life to about 3 months. Fusion and sew-in techniques last a little longer. Micro beading is the most effective form of extension attachment, lasting up to six months. This technique maximizes the use of extensions and is compatible with many brands, including Remy hair extensions.

Using virgin hair extensions, such as virgin Remy hair extensions, and applying the micro-bead technique means nothing if after-care instructions are not followed. 4-6 week appointments with hair dressers need to be made. If there are any signs of irritation or damage to the scalp, natural hair, or extensions, hair dresser attention needs to be obtained.
