Hair Extensions

Ever wondered how one day you see a person and their hair is one length and the next time you see them their hair is a lot longer? Either their hair grows really fast or they just might have extensions in their hair. There are many different types of ways to extend your hair and it differs from person to person, which one is actually better. The different ways that you can extend your hair is sew in, glue in, & clip on extensions. Extensions can even be put into the hair strand by strand.
Clip in extensions seems to be the easiest way to extend your hair because just like the name says you just clip it in. With it just being clipped in, you can take it out whenever you want to take it out and put it in whenever you want to put it in.
Sew in extensions (also called sew in weaves) is another good way to get the length of hair that you want. There are different ways to sew in extensions, some can be damaging to the hair and some are better for the hair. A one that is common in African Americans is sewing in the weave after first braiding up the real hair into a circle. This method can be damaging to the hair because the stylist may do the braiding too tight or even sew the tracks in too tight to the natural hair.
Gluing in extensions can be damaging to the hair as well because when you are taking the extensions out the glue on the back of the extensions are pulling up the natural hair. The glue that is put on the back of the extensions is also very thick because it needs to hold the hair down.
Strand by Strand extensions is another way to get length added to your hair but it just takes longer. By doing this method you can also still sew it , glue it etc. just in smaller portions.
There are many ways for people of any and all races to get their hair the length that they want it, you just have to decide which one is best for you.
