If you’ve scrolled through Instagram for more than a few minutes, you know one thing is for sure; long, beautiful, healthy hair is *IN* right now. Nothing matches a summer glow better than gorgeous shiny hair. 

So, if you’ve been eyeing a set of clip-in hair extensions, (but aren’t sure where to start) start here! Consider this your guide on how to decide if clip-ins are a good fit for you and your hair. 

How to Wear Clip-In Extensions 

DIY hair extensions are one of the quickest ways to add bounce and body to your hair. One of the best parts about using a clip-on hair piece is that it’s super easy to use. (Newbies rejoice!)

Here’s the scoop:

When you’re ready to try out clip-in extensions, it’s best to begin with slightly dirty hair. This ensures there’s already some texture for a reliable hold. If your hair was just washed, consider using some dry shampoo in your hair to have the same effect. 

Start off by sectioning your hair and putting most of your hair up. Leave a straight, thin horizontal row of hair. You’re going to apply the extensions to your bottom layers only. 

Each extension will have a mini comb clip on it. Open the comb up, and start adding the hair extensions to the center of the head as close to the roots as possible. Clip the middle in first, and then close the right and left clips. Then, let down some more of your hair and then repeat the process, moving up the scalp. For an even more secure hold, you may want to tease your hair at the root before placing the clip. You may want to spray some hairspray occasionally to ensure each extension is locked into place. Never clip an extension onto an existing extension - only clip extensions onto your natural hair. 

Once you’ve had enough practice putting in your hair extensions, you’ll even be able to throw your hair up in a natural-looking ponytail! 

When Should I Wear Clip-In Extensions?

One of the best parts about clip-in natural hair extensions is that they can help you spice up any look! Make them part of your very own glam fam. Applying high-quality extensions will leave your tresses looking absolutely stunning, shiny, and strong. 

We recommend wearing hair extensions whenever you want some additional allure. They are versatile enough to be worn daily or on special occasions only. Once in place, your clip-in hair pieces can be styled any way you like, especially if they’re made of real, 100% Remy Human hair.

Whether you want a full ponytail, thick braid, or voluminous flowing waves, clip-in hair extensions will help you achieve that style worth Instagramming!

When it comes to hair extensions, there are tons of different options on the market. Finding the perfect extension can feel overwhelming as the quality and prices vary greatly.
