Are you new to the world of hair extensions? Don't worry! You can master their application by simply following this step-by-step tutorial.

Step 1-2

  1. Horizontally, section off your hair at the nape of your neck, pinning up the top section of your hair.
  2. Open the package of clip-in hair. Starting in the middle of the sectioned portion, slide the first clip of the weft hair extension into your hair, and secure it in place.

Step 3-4

  1. To ensure a secure fit, fasten two additional clips on the same hair extension.
  2. As you release more hair from the pinned-up top section, attach the next weft hair extension. This time, use the piece with four clips to hold it firmly in place.

Step 5-6

  1. Continue this process, utilizing a weft hair extension equipped with three clips, until you've covered the entire section of hair.
  2. If you're extending the hair on the sides of your head, first pin up a segment of hair approximately an inch above one ear. Attach a weft hair extension with two clips to this section for added length and volume.

Step 7-8

  1. Allow some of your natural hair to fall over the previously attached extension. Now, fix a weft hair extension with just one clip onto this portion. Repeat the same procedure on the opposite side of your head.
  2. For optimal integration of clip-in hair extensions with your natural hair, consider curling them. This technique helps achieve a seamless blend and a more natural appearance.
