Best Hair Extensions near me in Yellow Tavern, Richmond

There are five main types of real or synthetic hair extensions:

1. Clip-in – easy, temporary option that you simply clip onto your own hair.
2. Tape – strands of hair which are taped or glued to the roots of your natural hair.
3. Bonds – thin strands that are glued to your natural hair using heated keratin.
4. Weaves/Sew-in – hair strands that are sewn or braided to cornrows made with your own hair.
5. Microlink – thin strands of hair that are pulled through a silicone bead and clamped onto your natural hair.

Tape-in extensions are one of the most popular and low-damage methods. Browse and book tape-in extension specialists near you on Fresha.

Tape-in hair extensions last between 4-8 weeks; clip-ins can last 6-12 months depending on how well you take care of them; weaves (sew-in extensions) last 6-8 weeks; and both bond extensions and microlinks can last up to 12 weeks. You can extend their lifespan by looking after them correctly, so ask your stylist for advice.

Hair extensions are strands of real or synthetic hair that are attached to the root of your own hair to give you fuller, longer-looking locks.
