There are now close to 10 different fusion types. These range from tape-in, flip-in, halo, micro-loops, and many more. Despite that, clip-in hair extensions is still one of the most used methods! Why? Because they’re very affordable, simple to use, and produce amazing results. Whether you want to use them every day or only for special occasions, clip-in extensions are one of the best ways to achieve instant length, boost your volume, and create a very trendy look.
If you have bought high-quality Remy hair extensions, you can curl, straighten, and even dye them. But all of those must be done very carefully and not too often. Otherwise, you risk damaging your new extensions. If you take care of them and follow all of the maintenance tips, you can significantly increase your hair’s lifespan and wear it for a long time.
So, if you have curly extensions or simply want to change the style, you’re probably thinking about straightening them. Although hot tools should be used as little as possible, they are still the only and best way to straighten your strands! But there are some things you can do when you must use a flat iron. That will protect your locks and minimize any damage. If you’re wondering how to straighten hair extensions, look at this simple guide.
First, you need to decide whether you want to straighten your wefts while they’re attached you your locks or separately. Both ways work great; it’s just about what you find easier. When clips or tapes are attached to your strands, then you must straighten all your locks, but you can also do it just on the extensions.
Timeframe: 10 to 30 minutes
How long you spend on hair extensions really depends on hair texture. Did you get weave, curly or other type of hair?
Required Tools: Flat iron, heat protectant spray or gel
Although this method takes a bit more time, since you have more strands to deal with, it produces great results. Mostly because it also blends your natural locks with the extensions better. So, if you’re going for that seamless look, try this way of straightening.
Timeframe: 20 to 40 minutes
Required Tools: Flat iron, heat protectant spray or gel
In order to protect your hair and increase the lifespan of your extensions, we recommend that you straighten it as little as possible.
Don’t do it every day, and always apply a heat protectant. Otherwise, you risk damaging your wefts by the heat, and they will not last you as long as you would wish. Also, if you’re not skilled in using a flat iron, ask a friend to help you or go to a salon to do it professionally.
If you are sensitive about your hair extensions and want to make them for as long as possible, consider this method. It’s not as effective as a flat iron one but should work for less textured hairstyles.
Timeframe: 40 to 80 minutes
Required Tools: Blow dryer, hair smoothing serum
