Pampering Yourself on the Road

Clip-in hair extensions are great for those who want to have longer and/or thicker hair with certain hair styles or certain events, but not all of the time. Clip-in extensions can be put in or taken out whenever you'd like, and they can be styled just like normal hair. Clip-in extensions are very versatile, just as long as you are wearing them correctly. Here are three tips for wearing your clip-in extensions:

Poof Your Hair Above Them 

The area of clip-in hair extensions that are most likely to be seen are the clips at the top. A great trick for hiding these clips is to poof the hair around them. You will start off by placing the hair extensions low enough so that you have enough hair to poof around them. This poof not only covers the clip entirely, but it also adds some extra body to your hair. To ensure the poof stays in place, you can use a comb and hairspray and then comb the top out so that it looks smooth. 

Style Them While In Your Hair 

It is best to style your hair extensions right along with your natural hair. To do this, you will first clip in your hair extensions and ensure that they are placed appropriately. At this point, you can then straighten, curl, or otherwise style your natural hair right along with your hair extensions. Since your hair extensions are made out of real human hair, they will style just like your regular hair. This helps your natural hair and your clip-in extensions to blend perfectly and creates a very natural look. 

Use Minimal Hairspray 

It is understandable that you will need to use hairspray to style your clip-in hair extensions, but it is best to use a minimal amount. The more product you use on your extensions, the more damaged they become. This can greatly shorten the life of your hair extensions and will cause you to need to purchase replacements. By using the minimal amount of hairspray when styling your hair, and only re-styling your extensions when necessary, you can keep them looking great and help them to last for as long as possible. 

To keep your clip-in extensions looking great when you wear them, you should make sure to poof your hair around them to hide the clips, style them right along with your regular hair, and use a minimal amount of hairspray.
