Clip in hair extensions can go one of two ways; they will either look extremely unnatural, or you won’t even be able to tell that you’re wearing them. It all depends on how you clip them into your hair.
If you need a step-by-step tutorial check out our post on The Best Way to Apply Clip In Hair Extensions. Below we’ve got four hair extension hacks that you can add to your clip-in routine to make them look flawless!
#1 TEASE
Depending on your preference, this step may be optional. However, if you have thin, fine hair teasing is recommended. After you make a clean section where you will place your weft, gently tease your hair at the root. If you feel you need extra hold, you can also add hairspray. Teasing gives the clips more of a grip to hold onto, putting you at ease that they won’t slip out.
#2 ANGLE WEFT
If you have a lot of layers or short layers, place the wefts on the side of your head at an angle. This placement will create natural layers around your face as well as help the clip in extensions blends seamlessly with your hair.
#3 CLOSE CLIP
Clipping in the wefts right above one another will create more of a natural look, as well as hide any baby hairs that stick out.
#4 CURL
Once you’ve completed your clip in extension application, curling your hair will make your extensions blend beautifully. Once you’ve curled your hair and let it cool, run your fingers through your hair to create natural waves and finish off the look with hairspray!
