Everything You Need to Know About Using Band Extensions
Looking for a hair fix that instantly gives you added length and volume? Enter the one-step hair band extensions. Wear these hair extensions like a headband with an easy DIY application at home. Band extensions (also called halo extensions) are a popular choice for baddies who are brand new to the hair extension world.
So how do headband extensions work? At Wicked Roots Hair, we’ve got all of the details about band extensions hair —we have our very own hair band extensions called Band It, so we know a thing or two about these extensions!
What are Hair Band Extensions?
Band extensions are made with either synthetic or human hair on a flexible weft and band that forms a circle (like a crown or halo) around the head. The hair extensions drape along the back of the head, and the flexible band sits at the top of your head like a headband (hence why they’re also referred to as headband extensions.) There are clips on the weft to clip onto the back of the head to secure the extensions.
How Do Headband Extensions Work?
Hair band extensions come as a one-piece hair extension set. The wefts are attached to a flexible band that sits at the top of your head. Band extensions from various brands are designed slightly differently, but with the same concept for how you wear the extensions.
Here’s how to apply our Band It hair band extensions:
- Brush your hair and the extensions to get rid of any tangles. Use a brush that’s gentle on your strands but effective at detangling, like our sectioning comb.
- Divide your hair into two sections horizontally across the back of your head (use a rat-tail comb to part your hair)
- Tie the section of hair up into a bun on the top of your head and leave 1-inch sections of hair to frame your face.
- Stretch the elastic band over the bun so that it’s about 1-inch behind your hairline
- Use the two clips on each side of your head to secure the wefts in place.
- Take your hair out of the bun over the band extensions hair and brush to blend.
