Waiting for your hair to grow long again can take months or years! So, the trick is to use hair extensions whenever you miss your long hair. Although installation on short hair can be a bit more difficult and trickier, it’s not impossible! In the end, you can create a seamless, beautiful look. Below, we will teach you exactly how to install extensions on short hair! Also, guide you through the process of picking the best hair extensions for hair on a shorter side.
If you have short hair and want to have long hair for a day or two, or when you miss your long hair, Remy Clip-on extensions is your best choice.
You can clip them in when you want to and clip them out at the end of the day. They’re not going to rip out or damage your natural hair. Also, you don’t have to wear them while going to the gym. Lastly, you don’t have to wear them in bed. Simply pop them in whenever you find that occasion, just when you want that extra volume or that extra length.
They’re the perfect solution! You can view the clip-in extensions as more of an accessory. Whenever you have an event that you feel they’re just right for, you can easily put them in and feel extra glamorous.
Another alternative? Flip ins!
It’s a lot easier if you have single-tone color hair to match hair extensions to it. It will be a bit harder if you have a two-tone color, highlights, or an ombre. The best way to do that is to mix and match hair extensions, using two sets of different colors and blending them.
Please keep in mind you must layer these two sets to create a mixed effect and blend them into your natural hair.
If you want, you can also take some single clip pieces and place them in strategic places. Where you will put them depends on your hair. However, usually, those places are behind your ears or at the back of your head.
Now that you have all the extensions attached, you can tease the top of your hair above the extensions. That will allow it to stay in place, and you’ll never have an extension pop through mostly because you will have that thick piece of hair covering it.
For maximum effect, it is best to curl your hair because that way, everything will blend nicely. If you want to save time, you can pre-curl too! You can place them on a coat hanger and curl the clip-ins. So, they’re already nice and curled when you want to install them. But even if you curled them before installing, you still need to make a couple of curls. Just on the top, blend your natural hair with the extensions and get that transition super smooth. And that’s it; you’re done!
When you get the hang of it, this process is simple. It doesn’t make much difference if your hair is short or two-toned. When your special event or a night out is over, you can simply take them out and get back to your cool short hairstyle.
There is another long-term solution for women with short hair. That would be Remy tape-in hair extensions, and installing them is also easy.
You also want to make sure that it goes with the curvature of the head so that way, when it’s going up and down, it’s very comfortable and it’s not tugging at any hairs on the scalp.
Typically, at least 5 rows are done on an average head. The rows should end about two inches above the ears, making sure you have enough hair to cover any of the tabs.
For tape-in removal, it is the same for shorter or longer hair; it is even easier for short hairstyles since you have less tape to remove. You will need an adhesive remover. There are many different brands you can choose from, and most of them get the job done nicely. You can also use cornflour which can help to get rid of any excess stickiness or residue. Once the tape has been removed, you will also need a comb to brush your hair.
That’s it!
If you have shorter hair, you’re probably wondering whether you could get tape-in hair extensions. The good news is that you absolutely can, and tape-ins are a great method for shorter hair. If you are a hairdresser, you probably have a lot of clients with short hair who ask about the same thing.
Tape-in extensions blend nicely with short hair because they come in small pieces that look much more natural than clip-ins or wefts. The tape lasts a couple of months, depending on the speed of the hair growth. After the hair has grown out, the extensions need to be removed and reinstalled.
Tape in the application process is a bit more complicated than clip-in, but it’s still easy to do. You don’t need any special tools or wands! Just a set of tape in wefts and a little bit of patience. Below is a guide on how to install tape-in extensions on short hair; it is not that hard.
