Beginner's Guide to Hair Extensions

So you're interested in hair extensions, but don't know where to start. Below are a few Do's and Dont's for newbies.

Do- Buy premium human hair extensions, if you want your hair extensions to last. It may be more expensive, but it is well worth the cost. Remy is the best of the best in regards to hair extensions. This grade of human hair will maintain its quality well under everyday styling. The reason for this has everything to do with cuticle alignment. Remy hair has all of its cuticles aligned in the same direction from root to end. This makes the hair less prone to tangling and matting and is much more durable.

Don't- Expect inexpensive hair extensions not to tangle, mat, or shed. Cheaper human hair extensions are simply placed on the weft with no regard to the cuticle placement.

Do- Choose hair extensions and application techniques based on how long you want to wear the hair extensions.

Don't- Purchase synthetic hair.

Remy Hair Versus Non-Remy Hair Extensions

If you want your hair extensions to last, you must buy premium human hair extensions. It may be more expensive, but it is well worth the cost. Remy is the best of best in regards to hair extensions. This grade of human hair will maintain well under everyday styling. The reason for this has everything to do with cuticle alignment. Cheaper human hair extensions are simply placed on the weft with no regard to the cuticle placement. On the other hand, remy hair has all it's cuticles aligned in the same direction from root to end. This makes the hair less prone to tangling and matting and is more durable.

Hand Tied Weft Versus Machine Weft

A hair weft is the horizontal attachment base that the strands of hair are sewn into. There are two types of hair wefts available on the market, machine and hand tied. The difference between hand tied weft and machine weft is that hand tied wefts are done by hand and are much thinner than machine wefts. Hand tied wefts lay flat against your scalp to give you a more natural look and significantly reduce bulkiness. Hand tied wefts come in pieces of about 24" long; you get about five pieces per pack more or less, depending on the length of the hair. The hand tied wefts must be reinforced before cutting and must be sewn around the weft, not through the weft. You can do this either with a glue (nail or fabric glue works great) or by sewing the weft down before cutting. Machine wefts are done by machine and have a thicker weft. They do not need to be reinforced or secured before cutting and you can sew through the weft.

Human Hair Versus Synthetic Hair Extensions

There are two types of hair extensions: synthetic and human hair. The pros and cons are listed below.

Synthetic Hair Pros and Cons:

Pros

• It is cheaper than human hair.
• It comes in many colors and textures.
• It can be attached several different ways: with glue, tape, or it can be sewn in.
  

Cons

• It looks and feels fake. Artificial or fake hair cannot match the silky shine or luster of human hair.
• It is limited in styling- Synthetic hair will melt when exposed to high temperatures of styling products, such as a curling iron or flat iron.
• It cannot be colored.
• It cannot be reused. You wear it once and threw it away.

Human Hair Pros and Cons:

Pros

• It looks and feels real, because it's made from the real thing.
• It can be colored.
• You can use hot styling products, such as a curling iron or flat iron, to achieve any hair style desired.
• It does not tangle and matt excessively.
  
• It comes in many colors and textures.
• It is reusable. It can be reused for several installs, making it a worthwhile investment.
• It can be attached several different ways: with glue, tape, or it can be sewn in.

Cons

• The hair costs more, but it lasts longer.

And the winner is...
Let's face it, most of us do not want anyone to know we are wearing hair extensions. So for the most natural looking hair extensions, the real choice is human hair extensions.

Pixie Cut Hairstyles: Short and Sassy

As the weather gets hot, short hairstyles have become increasingly popular. For those who dare to live a little and cut their hair off, short haircuts are low maintenance, fun and most importantly stylish. Those who need a little motivation can look all around them as well as at the celebrity world to see people who are rocking short dos.

The short pixie cut is one of the most popular short hairstyles. Ladies like the ease of styling as well as the great and mature look that it portrays. For a short pixie cut, the longest hair is generally on the top. Some ladies like to showcase a lot of volume on top and the hair may be spiked up to garner attention. The sides of the hair are generally tapered closely to the face which definitely frames the face.

This is a great cut for anyone who wants to showcase their best facial features. Pixie cuts generally have very short and often layered sides so there is no hair hanging down on the neck. There are no extra distractions. The longest hair which is up top may be curled or stacked on the head to create a different look but the face remains the important feature.

Many celebrities such as Katie Holmes, Alyssa Milano, Rihanna, Winona Ryder and others like pixie cuts because they want to showcase their beautiful faces and appeal to their audience. The great thing about pixie cuts is that this style is more than just cutting the hair really short. Ladies can experiment with different lengths on top as well as the layers on the side.

Scene Hairstyles and Fashion

One of the great things about fashion is that people can use it to make a statement. Fashion is such a big word that there is no specific way to describe a person’s fashion or style. Hairstyles have emerged and grown right alongside the fashion world. Many hairstyles have been born as a response to a new form of fashion.

Scene hairstyles have jumped on the scene and have become a favorite of many young people. Scene hairstyles are very expressive. They are usually characterized by the colors that are used. Most people, men and women, opt for bold highlights throughout their hair in order to make a great statement. Most people who wear scene hairstyles keep their hair long. They use various colored hair or add funky colorful bangs to complete their look.



Many men also have longer hair and add color highlights. The bangs are very important for any scene hairstyle because generally they are long and colorful. Some people like them to hang in their eyes and other people prefer a razor cut. The hair may be spiked but that is not always the case. One of the most important aspect as stated before is the bangs. They generally stand out and for some individuals may be the most dramatic part of the hairstyle. Experimenting with different cuts and ways to sweep the bangs can get very imaginative.

Most people who wear scene hairstyles believe in lots of colors. Nothing is off limits. People generally like to make bold statements with their clothes also. Both men and women may wear colorful t shirts and jeans to match.
