Premium now extensions are human hair extensions. They blend well with natural hair. They come in different types to suit various hair needs. Below are the main types of hair extensions.
Clip-in Extensions:
These are temporary hair extensions that one can easily attach or remove by oneself. They are made from premium human hair for a natural look. They come in various shades and textures to blend with different hair types. They are ideal for anyone who wants to add volume or length to their hair. They are also easy to use and comfortable.
Tape-in Extensions:
These are semi-permanent extensions that are applied by professional stylists. They have double-sided medical-grade adhesive tape at the top. The tape is used to sandwich small sections of natural hair. This creates a flat and discreet attachment close to the scalp. They lie very flat against the head, making them virtually undetectable. They are lightweight and cause no damage to natural hair when properly installed and removed.
Micro-link (I-Tip) Extensions:
These extensions are attached to the natural hair using small silicone-lined beads or links. They are pushed up into the beads and then clamped down with pliers to secure them. This method does not require any heat or glue during installation. Micro-link extensions can be adjusted or moved up as natural hair grows. They can also be used multiple times before needing to be replaced.
Fusion (Keratin Bond) Extensions:
These extensions are attached using a heated tool to melt keratin bonds. The melted keratin is used to bond the extension to the hair. This creates a strong and long-lasting attachment. They are suitable for creating seamless blends between natural hair and extensions.
Weft (Sew-in) Extensions:
Weft extensions come in rows or tracks that can be sewn into braided rows of natural hair. They provide full coverage and are very secure. They are ideal for people who want to add a lot of length and volume. They can also be styled and colored to match individual preferences.
Choosing the best premium now hair extensions requires careful consideration. Here are the main factors to look at when buying.
Hair Texture
Human hair extensions blend well with natural hair. Select a texture that matches the hair. For straight hair, choose straight extensions. Use wavy extensions for wavy hair. Use curly extensions for curly hair. Identifying the hair's porosity makes it easy to choose the right extension. Hair with low porosity holds well to straight extensions. Hair with medium porosity works well with all extension types. Hair with high porosity blends well with human hair extensions.
Extension Length
Consider the length of the hair to determine the extension's length. The rule of thumb is that the extension's length should be 2 to 4 inches longer than the hair. This gives the stylist room to make adjustments without making the extension obvious.
Desired Style
Consider the style one wants to achieve. Some styles require certain extension types. For instance, voluminous styles work well with curly or coily extensions. Straight extensions are suitable for sleek styles. Knowing the desired style makes it easy to select the right extension.
Quality
Extensions come in different qualities. The main difference is how they are processed. Choose extensions that have undergone minimal processing. They are more likely to last longer and blend well with hair. Avoid synthetic extensions because they don't last long.
Quantity
Determine the number of required extensions. The amount depends on the hair's length and volume. For long and voluminous styles, buy more extension packs. Check the grams of hair in each extension pack. The higher the grams, the more hair is in the pack. The hair can be full with fewer extension packs.
Attachment Method
Consider the attachment process and how long it takes. Some extensions are simple to attach and remove. Clip-in extensions are an excellent example. They are suitable for temporary attachment. Look at the stylist's skill level to choose the right extension method. Some stylists may not know how to attach all extension types.
Budget
Set a budget for the extension. Premium human hair extensions are more expensive than synthetic ones. However, they have a better quality and last longer. Look at the grams of hair in each extension pack. The higher the grams, the more the extension costs.
