The Right Way To Clip In Hair Extensions

2nd Step

When you have successfully secured the first weft, bring down around a half-inch of hair again while making sure that it is not tangled up. Bring the second longest weft that came with the set and secure it, similar to how you attached the first one.

Now with the rear of your head, secure the middle clip, then attach the remaining pins on any side of your head. Keep it as close to your face as possible.

In addition, if the hair is fine, ensure that you tease the section of the hair where you will be securing the clips. In most kits, this one would be your longest weft.

3rd Step

Generally speaking, hair extension sets will include two to four wefts of the same width. You have to attach those wefts to the side of your head. To connect those wefts, bring your hair down to eyebrow level, pick any one of the wefts to begin securing it on any side of your face, and in this step, start connecting the clips that will be closed to your face first.

As for the remaining clips that will go to the rear of your head, attach them as far as possible. Repeat this same process for the remaining side with the other weft.

4th Step

Once you have completed the steps mentioned above, you will have two to four small wefts remaining and usually only an inch-wide. These secure at the front of your head, and there is no foolproof method of securing. These are filler pieces and rely significantly on the haircut of your natural hair.

To begin securing these, you can bring down all your hair and try to spot any gaps while noting that these are to surround your face. To hide the weft, simply lift a few inches of your hair and clip them right in. You can also wear three of the smallest wefts, one on either side and the remaining on others, depending on your haircut or wear.

You can also browse for videos that demonstrate how to clip in hair extensions, as it may help better understand the process by seeing it yourself first, and the ideal way to get good at it is by practicing.

You can also try placing wefts at different spots or where you are parting your hair to bring out the best look for you.

Conclusion

Don’t stress yourself if you cannot get the clip-in extensions ideally on your first attempt. Always remember that these extensions are temporary, allowing you to try again as many times as you’d like to get the perfect look. Over time you will be able to find extensions that work for you and suit all your needs.
