Hair Extensions FAQs
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.
The cost depends on the type of hair extensions you choose, but you should expect to pay between £10 and £450.
The longevity of hair extensions depends upon the type you go for. 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.
There are five main types of real or synthetic hair extensions:
- Clip-in – easy, temporary option that you simply clip onto your own hair.
- Tape – strands of hair which are taped or glued to the roots of your natural hair.
- Bonds – thin strands that are glued to your natural hair using heated keratin.
- Weaves/Sew-in – hair strands that are sewn or braided to cornrows made with your own hair.
- Microlink – thin strands of hair that are pulled through a silicone bead and clamped onto your natural hair.
You should care for real hair extensions just as you would your natural hair: brush, wash and condition them without overdoing it at the root, which could loosen the bonding. Synthetic extensions can be washed in cool water with a small amount of mild shampoo before applying a leave-in conditioner. It’s also advisable to book once-monthly appointments with your stylist to ensure the proper upkeep of your hair extensions.
Your hairstylist will be able to advise you on the best type of extension for you based on your hair type and the look you are trying to achieve. Natural hair extensions are better than synthetic, which can’t be heat-styled.
