The Best Hair Extensions to Put in Quickly

by Sanitas Hair

Here’s a quick guide to the best types of hair extensions, including halo and tape-in extensions, as well as some tips for buying:

1. Quick and Easy Hair Extensions

Clip-In Extensions:

  • Pros: Quick to apply, no commitment, and you can easily remove them when needed.
  • Cons: May not be as secure as other methods, and they can be visible if not properly blended.
  • Best For: Those who want flexibility and a temporary change.

Halo Extensions:

  • Pros: Very quick to apply (just one piece), no clips or adhesives, and they are gentle on your hair.
  • Cons: Can be less customizable for specific styles compared to other methods.
  • Best For: A hassle-free option that doesn’t require much effort and is easy to take out.

2. Halo Hair Extensions

Overview:

  • A halo extension is a single, circular band of hair that sits on top of your head. It’s secured by an invisible wire or band that sits behind your natural hair.
  • They are typically made from high-quality human hair and are known for being easy to apply.

Application Tips:

  • Ensure the halo band is the right size for your head.
  • Brush your natural hair to avoid tangling.
  • Hide the halo band by blending it with your natural hair for a seamless look.

3. Tape-In Extensions

Overview:

  • Tape-in extensions consist of adhesive strips that are attached to your natural hair. They are semi-permanent and can last several weeks.
  • They are less damaging than some other methods if applied correctly.

Application Tips:

  • Make sure your hair is clean and dry before application.
  • Part your hair and apply the tape-ins close to the root but not on the scalp.
  • Avoid using oily products near the roots, as this can weaken the adhesive.

4. Hair Extensions Buying Guide

Considerations:

  • Hair Type: Choose extensions that match your natural hair type (e.g., straight, wavy, curly).
  • Color Match: Ensure the color of the extensions blends well with your natural hair color.
  • Quality: Opt for high-quality human hair for a more natural look and longer lifespan.
  • Application Method: Consider how easy or permanent you want the extensions to be.
  • Budget: Prices can vary, so find a balance between quality and affordability.

Maintenance:

  • Follow the care instructions for your specific type of extensions to keep them looking good and to extend their lifespan.
