What are The Best Type of Hair Extensions?
Are you new to hair extensions and unsure of which method to choose from? We have put together a handy guide on the different types of hair extension method to choose from so you can identify which method might be most suitable for your hair type and suit your lifestyle.
What are the different types of hair extensions?
Tape Hair Extensions
Tape extensions are a very popular choice as they are a semi-permanent method which lasts between 6-8 weeks and can be re-used. They are great for thinner hair types, and you can control the amount of hair being added in your appointment. Whether you want a small volume boost with 6 pairs of tape or want to go mega all out with 28 pairs for the ultimate volume and length
Tape extensions don’t damage your hair at all if they are applied by a skilled hair extension stylist. In many cases our clients have found their natural hair has improved whilst having hair extensions as less styling is needed to make their hair look full. Keep your hair healthy with this reusable and semi-permanent method.
If you can’t make it to our central London salon, then you can also shop our tape extensions online and have them delivered straight to you. We would advise having them fitted with a hair extension specialist in your area and if you need any help with colour matching then don’t hesitate to get in touch and one of Team Vixen will be happy to help with your colour match.
Micro Ring Hair Extensions
Micro Ring extensions are a very popular method as they are a permanent method that last for 3 months. Individual strands of hair are fitted using a small metal ring. There is no heat or glue used in the fitting or removal instead a metal ring is used and clamped closed to secure the hair in place. The fitting and removal process is very safe, easy, and clean.
If you decide to add a lot of length at the first fitting then the hair can be re-used many times, making this method a more affordable way of wearing hair extensions in the long term.
Micro Bond Hair Extensions
Micro Bond extensions are a safe and discreet way of adding hair extensions. They are a great method if you have sparse hair at the root and aren’t suitable for other hair extension methods. Micro Bonds are a hard-wearing method which you can place further forward or lower down the nape compared to other methods. They last for 3 months and then you will need new hair.
Clip In Hair Extensions
Clip in hair extensions can be easily attached to your natural hair. You can do this very easily at home for a big night out or special event.
Clip in hair extensions are the least permanent method as you can remove them when necessary and attach them whenever you like. They are quick and easy to use and a perfect extension choice for someone who wants instant length and thickness added to their natural hair. If you invest in the best quality hair and follow the correct care and maintenance your clip in set will last for years.
