Do you have thin hair? Are you tired of short hair and your hair just grows too slow? Do you think that woman looks more feminine with long hair, or you simply want full head of long hair? Hair extensions are just the right solution and answer to all the previously mentioned questions. There are many different methods of applying hair extensions just as there are many reasons why you might want long hair; we have looked into different methods and took out the best for you. We will also point you out to some celebrities that use this method quite often to have such beautiful hair on the red carpet.

For example, look at Eva Longoria. One day you see it on a red carpet with sleek bob, and the very next day she is out and about with impressive long hair that looks like it has grown over night. Miracle? No way. Although it would be amazing, there is no such method that can make hair grow few inches in a matter of few days. However, hair extensions can make this magic happen. Extensions will do a lot magic on your head. For one, they will give longer and thicker hair. They will also help with transition period while you let hair grow long. There is no need to wait your natural hair to grow long to wear it braided or in an elegant bun.

The decision to get hair extensions is not a hard one. The hardest part is to find an appropriate method that is going to work best with your hair and budget. There are three popular ways of applying extensions: clip-in hair extensions, attaching to natural hair (sew in) and bonding/sealing extensions in hair. These methods differ in how much it takes to apply extensions, how much it costs and how long it lasts. On the other side, each of these methods is applicable as long as your hair is at least 3 inches long. First you must decide how long extensions you want and how often you want to change how you wear your hair.

Clip-In Hair Extensions

Do you want to experiment with hair and change your hair style every day? Do you want to save your time and money? If you said YES to one or both questions, then clip in extensions should be your choice. Strips of extensions are attached to your hair with clips. This is gentler method for your natural hair and it doesn’t take a lot to do it-and it also isn’t as expensive as other ones. Best of all, you can do it on your own, without professional help. Clip in extensions enable you to experiment with different hair styles whenever you want. This is why they are the perfect choice for everybody who is still unsure weather extensions are the right choice for them (in a longer run)-because you can remove them as fast as you have applied them.

Sew-In Hair Extensions

Sewing extensions to your hair is the great solution for everyone wanting longer change of hair style-and long hair. In this method, individual strips of extensions are attached to natural hair with using a sewing process. Attachment process lasts longer and has to be redone every few months, depending on quality of extensions, growth of natural hair and care for hair. This makes this method quite expensive, but it gives beautiful, long lasting results. The first step is to have your hair cleaned and braided. Braiding is a cold attachment method. This classic method takes much time, and smaller or larger strips of hair are braided in or sewn into natural hair.

Hair Closure

A closure is a hair piece that is usually made of lace or silk, although lace is the far more common choice. The hair piece is attached to a cornrow base and secured around the perimeter in order to help protect your hair and improve its look. Closures bring countless advantages, both for the health and appearance of your hair. Many women, in an effort to help their “leave out” better blend with their weave, chemically relax it or use lots of heat on the hair. However, this can result in hair that is much more brittle, thinner, and shorter than the rest of your hair. By wearing a closure, you make sure that all of your hair is protected so that this doesn’t happen.
