How to Wear Hair Extensions for Thick Hair?

uniwigs

When choosing hair extensions, you have to consider the hair volume and grams. Different grams for different hair volumes you have. Usually, we define three types of hair volume we have: thin, medium, and thick. Today, we will talk about how to choose and wear hair extensions for people with thick hair.
Usually, the hair extensions glam between 180g and 220g will be enough. Just think, how to weigh it would be if you wear an extension above 250g. That’s why we don’t recommend that kind of hair extensions.

So what to do if it’s thin for me?

That depends on the tips on how you wear the hair extensions.
The key is to hide away some of your own hair! This will eliminate some of the bulkiness and help to blend your own hair with the extensions.

How to wear it?

Normally if you put your extensions in according to the instructions, you would section the bottom half of your hair and then put in your extensions. If you already have thick hair that bottom layer is going to be pretty heavy and when you lift up your extensions you are going to see just this row of really short hair.

So what I’m going to show you is how you can get your extensions without that bottom layer.

First, you have to make a section at the back and braid the bottom hair. When you make the section, the position is very important: at the nape of the neck? Ear to ear? Or at the crown? That depends on how thick your hair, grasp the hair extension with one hand, and grasp your hair with another hand, compare the thickness of them, then estimate the extra hair volume of your hair compared with the hair extensions, section the extra hair with the right place.
Then make two braids for the extra hair.

Then pin both braids together. That’s good for hiding the extra hair, and also works for clipping the hair extension.

After that, you will find that your hair is not so thick.
Then you can add hair extensions as usual. If you are a perfectionist you can always straighten your hair to match the texture. But don’t forget it’s going to be super noticeable to you and not so noticeable to people who have never seen you before. So we suggest doing some curls, which would be much undetectable than straight hair.

UniWigs New Hair Extension Collection – The Original

uniwigs

UniWigs will be launched a new hair extension collection- “The Original” this week.

UniWigs Original Hair Extension Collection is offering two different types of affordable Remy human hair extension – one is Uni Clip In Extension, one is Invisible Clip In Extension. “The Original” is designed to be tangle-free, heat-friendly and long lasting and provide the most comfortable feeling to our customers. Also, they come in 7 pieces and 10 pieces that is for offering the various lengths and thickness customers can choose from.

UniWigs ‘Invisible Clip-In’ Hair extensions (also known as ‘Seamless hair extensions’) （EC1901& EC1902）are a new alternative to our classic Uni hair extensions. Our Invisible Clip-In extensions are designed with a thin clear silicone base which is lighter than regular hair extensions. This is due to the lighter clips used and the Silicone material. This makes the Clip-Ins feel undetectable when wearing them .Many women prefer these hair extensions as are light to wear.

Another feature of the Invisible Clip-In extension line is that they are less visible. The silicone bases are clear. These clip-ins are more discreet than normal hair extensions. The silicone bases lay completely flat against the head, meaning the hair all smooths and blends together more evenly. Although the Invisible Clip-In extensions have thinner bases, the tracks are full of hair to offer lots of volume.

The Original Extension Collection offers Invisible Clip-Ins with two different options and features that customer’s love. We have two different sets, weights, and lengths.

They have the same 5 dreamy shades to choose from, natural black, Dark Brown, light brown, sun kissed blonde and platinum blonde.

Alternatively, some women prefer the normal hair extensions as the weft bases are fuller, they add slightly more volume to the hair.

Single tape-in is a pre-taped and ready-to-apply piece. The easy application of single Tape-in could be either a Color Swatch for an exact color match, or it could be a perfect way to add even more volume or colors to your existing UniWigs Hair.

Tape-in hair extensions usually regard as “Salon products”. You may go to a salon and you get them installed because this difficult process typically takes an hour to hour and a half to be done. (Of course you can do them by yourself if you educated by some tutorials). The meaning with those is at home care at least, it’s not much. You can wash them like your own hair. Once you get them put on guys, they are set on your hair and they do not come out until you’re ready to take them out or have them taken out. So you can go shower with them, you go to gym with them, all that stuff you can do with those on your head within four to eight weeks. When your actual hair starts growing out, that is the time when you get them taken out and you can have them put right back in. You do not have to buy brand new tape in extensions, and you can use the exact same ones that you have unless you’ve colored your hair differently but you can re-use those extensions which is awesome. All you have to do is go purchase a new extensions tape. The tape is on them is actually a double-sided tape. One side goes in the extension; one side is to be pressed up against your hair. You can only put the new tape on, that way you are not going to buy other units of hair extensions and just your maintenance of every four to six weeks putting them in.

The current colors we have on Joanna: G4(4B),1B,L(T4/14)+(4), G-2(4A),1B, 613, 8-12,14-24,Y-686,6-8, and natural black. Each is 14” and the weight is 3 gram.

How much hair weave you need?

uniwigs

Weave are attached to your head by sewing them to a tiny braid made out of your own hair. The track (known to hairdressers as a corn-row) runs horizontally around the back of your head. The tracks are done in the middle of your scalp underneath your hairline so you can’t see them.
The crown area of your own hair covers the top track making the hair extensions seem invisible. The number and size of tracks matches the number and size of wefts. The wefts and tracks ideally should be made in different sizes in order to match exactly the way your hair would look if you had grown it that way yourself.

Normally, Weft hair are applied in rows across your head with adhesive or sewed to braids. Some hairdressers prefer shrinkies/shrink-links and micro ring or fusion for pre bonded hair, the hair comes already separated into individual strands ready for application with glue on the tips.
How much hair you need depends on how many tracks you have. For example: If I had hair to my chin and I wanted hair to my bra line (about 18″ long) I might need 5 or 6 tracks/wefts depending upon my current haircut. If I had hair to my shoulders that was thin and stringy and I wanted it thicker and more luscious but the same length I might need 2 or 3 (or more) tracks/wefts. For hair weft under 18 inches, one packet is enough for full head. Over 18 inches, you should need more the one. If a hairdresser is doing your hair it is advisable to check with them as to how much you require for the hairstyle.
For the pre blonded hair, you should need 150-200 strands.Once again this depends on the style. For other methods eg strand by strand you will need to consult with your hair dresser. Once the tracks are done, the wefts are sewn to them and then your own crown area hair is blended with and combed over the extensions.

Sure, the Extensions should not be applied any lower than the base of your scalp (about even with the middle of your ears) and so your hair under this point covers the extensions while you wear it in pigtails, ponytails, french twists, french braids etc。 With proper care, Hair Extensions should last four months.

Hope it helps. Further Reading: Weft Hair Extensions

hair loss occurs only on the natural hair? 

uniwigs

Who says that hair loss occurs only on the natural hair?  Actually hair loss does happen on the hair system as well.  This is caused by bacteria and friction that the hair system encounters every day. Either of the two or when combined together will affect hair loss in the hair system however, this can be prevented so that the hair system will last longer.

Hair replacement system easily rubs off due to friction caused by the absence of Sebum which is natural oil that protects and lubricates the hair follicles from friction.Hair fall is caused by sleeping on a coarse material pillow case.  Constant rubbing with the coarse fabric will cause hair breakage.  The best way to avoid this is to use a satin fabric for your pillow case.Combing and brushing too often will cause hair fall, to avoid this, using of Spray Luster Mist which is a lubricating agent will keep the hair moist and reduces the friction between the hair and the comb.Bacteria cause the hair system hair loss. The most vulnerable part of the hair system are the knots because they hold and retain moisture, any build up will naturally break and weaken the hair shafts of the hair.

You can use Brandywine shampoos because it is made specifically for hair systems, both synthetic and human hair.Use a knot sealer as often as possible whenever you use hair styling products. We can not avoid using styling products to help the hair look good however, with constant use this tends to weaken the knots and will cause hair fall. The knot sealer slows down and stops hair loss while locking the hair knots to the base of the hair system.

Hair system is the best non surgical hair loss solution, this is the most natural method of giving back our hair however, but hair loss in the hair replacement system can be avoided is we only adhere to the proper caring of the hair replacement system.

Customer Voice for Uniwigs Red Mermaid Ariel Sythentic Wig

uniwigs

WHO SAID BLONDES HAD ALL THE FUN?  I PROVED THAT RED HEADS HAVE JUST AS MUCH!
I’ve been a long time client of UNIWIGS products.  How better to change one’s look temporarily than with extensions, clip-ins and wigs?! PLUS they treat their customers like GOLD to boot.

You’ve seen my blog outfits take a new personality when I use my favorite extensions.  It really helps define certain hair styles on dark hair like mine – most especially in photos.  I can’t commit to a permanent hair change and these products truly helped me express myself the way I intended to.

Today I trekked out to UNIWIGS warehouse and met the people behind my orders.  The owner and his assistant welcomed us and in to their facility and showed us the magic behind filling their client’s orders.  It was a pleasure spending time with them and seeing all the great products offered in person.  I felt like a VIP as they have never opened their doors to another. I was offered a basket full of their products and was helped in to a few pieces.  This post is featuring a new synthetic front lace design #SLO1003  <<CLICK HERE>>.  I was fitted in to a snug hair cap and the owner helped position it in place.

I have to say… I look GOOD in as a red head!  I styled it to part to one side and it was very easy to do with their special wig brush.  As I’ve experienced before with the extensions I own from them – the synthetic hair is soft, thick and luxurious.  I combed through it with my nails and it bounced right back in to it’s memorized curl.

What a transformation.  I look like a completely different person and my experience wearing my first lace front wig is amazing!  It isn’t heavy and the special hair cap kept me cool and comfortable even in today’s Southern California day of 80 degrees.

Here is a great alternative to reinventing your look for this new year.  I know I LOVE every single piece I wore today and will share a couple of more this coming week.

There’s a BIG Christmas sale going on now and suggest you take a visit and pick up some of their goodies.  They ship WORLDWIDE too!

Leave a comment and will message you once this style is up on their site for us all to own.  Who’s excited?!  Is there a color you would like to try?  Tell me.. tell me!

Remember:  The sky is the LIMIT and let your creativity run free my friends.  <3
