Hair Extension 101

1. WHAT ARE CLIP-IN HAIR EXTENSIONS?
 
Clip-in hair extensions are the easiest, fastest, and safest way to get long, thick hair in just a matter of minutes. Clip-in hair extension wefts come with the clips already attached to them. This means that you can simply take the wefts and easily clip them into your hair all by yourself, without any additional costs, time, or professional help. Clip-in hair extensions are the perfect solution for those who are looking to get thicker hair and longer hair instantly, without the hassle, long-term commitment or breaking the bank.

 
2. WHAT ARE THE BEST HAIR EXTENSIONS FOR ME?
 
The best hair extensions are those that blend in well with your hair and also that fit your lifestyle. For example, if you shower often, dance, work out, swim, or play sports on a regular basis – perhaps it is best to consider temporary methods of hair extensions such as clip-in hair extensions, because they can easily be taken out for the duration of those activities and clipped back in when needed. Not only will this will ensure proper hygiene and will also make your hair extensions last longer, but will also be less damaging for your own hair.

 
3. HOW MUCH DO HAIR EXTENSIONS COST?
 
You can expect to pay anywhere from INR 3500-6000 for synthetic hair extensions, and anywhere from INR 10,000- INR 25,000 or more for human hair extensions. We highly recommend purchasing real Remy human hair extensions as they are much higher quality than synthetic hair extensions as you will be able to style and wash them just like your own hair. The Indian Extension Company  20” remy human hair extensions range from INR 12,000- INR 25,000, depending on the weight that you choose (120g, 160g, or 220g).

 
4. HOW LONG DO HAIR EXTENSIONS LAST?
 
The lifespan of clip-in hair extensions will depend on how well you take care of them, what products you use on them, and how often you wear them. With proper care and regular wear, The Indian Extension Company  extensions last anywhere from 3-6 months up to a year or even longer.

5. DO HAIR EXTENSIONS DAMAGE YOUR HAIR?
 
The type and application methods matter when it comes to hair extensions. Some more permanent hair extensions can cause damage due to the bonding, gluing, and pulling on the hair. Clip-in hair extensions are the least damaging option as they are simply clipped into your hair like any regular hair clip. Additionally, since you are not sleeping with the extensions in or wearing them non-stop for a long period of time, this reduces the amount of pulling and stress on your hair, which results in healthier hair. Clip-in hair extensions cause absolutely no damage to your hair.

10. IF I HAVE CURLY HAIR CAN I STILL WEAR CLIP IN HAIR EXTENSIONS?
 
Yes! Even if you have curly hair, you can still wear clip-in hair extensions. The Indian Extension Company  extensions are made of 100% Remy human hair and will come straight. In order to achieve an ideal blend, we recommend having your hair straightened or relaxed in order to match the texture of the extensions.
 
They can also be styled to curls or waves using hot tools. Here is a super helpful tutorial by our lovely friend, India, who shows how to blend extensions with her naturally curly hair.
 
You can also air dry your extensions overnight (in a braid, for instance), and when you wake up and clip in your set you will have gorgeous, beachy waves ready to go. Plus, you can also experiment with different curl patterns without having to buy an array of curling wands. Find out 4 ways to air dry your extensions.
 
11. HOW LONG DOES MY HAIR HAVE TO BE TO WEAR HAIR EXTENSIONS?
 
We recommend for your hair to be at least 6-7 inches (this is around shoulder length) in order for clip-in hair extensions to blend naturally. If your hair is any shorter, you may experience some trouble with hiding the wefts in your hair.
 
12. WILL HAIR EXTENSIONS BLEND IF I HAVE SHORT HAIR?
 
As long as your hair is at least 6-7 inches long, which is around shoulder length, clip-in hair extensions will blend. The reason why this is the recommended length is that your hair needs to be long enough in order for the clips to secure to your hair sturdily, and to ensure that the clips do not show through your short hair.
 
Halo® hair extensions on the other hand, are best for those who have below bust-length hair and have a thin or medium hair type. We do not recommend the Halo® hair extensions for those with short hair as you will need more wefts and hair to create a seamless blend.
