How To Keep Clip In Hair Extensions In Longer
June 18, 2024
When it comes to filling out your natural hair and creating volume, nothing beats the ease and convenience of clip in hair extensions. Unlike other extensions, they are easy to put where you need them and don’t require a lot of time to use. However, despite these benefits, users often report that their clip in extensions don’t stay in place all day and slip down as they move through their routine. Fortunately, there’s help. Use these tips to keep yours in place from sunup to sundown.
Tips to Secure Your Clip-On Hair Extensions All Day Long
Before you can determine how to keep your extensions in place, it’s helpful to know what causes them to slip. The two main causes are your hair type and the kind of extensions you’re wearing. If your hair is very thin or silky, your extensions simply might not have enough to hold onto and will slowly slide out. If you are clipping your extensions to chunks of hair that are too small or thin, the same issue applies. Read below to find some tips to keep them in place.
The most important way to keep your extensions where you want them is to choose that work with your hair type. If you have fine, thin hair, you’re going to need lightweight extensions that won’t pull or slide when you wear them.
If you are clipping your extensions to sections of your hair that are too thin, it makes sense that they are going to start sliding out during the day. On the other hand, sections that are too thick don’t allow for a proper grip, causing your extensions to slide out or pop off the section of hair. For that reason, it’s important to section your hair correctly so your clip in extensions stay in place. Getting the sections correctly sized may take a bit of practice but will go a long way toward keeping those extensions where you want them.
Just as with natural hair, you’ve got to use the right products and tools for hair type and styling needs. To section your hair, rat tail comb and sectioning clips come in handy for helping get the extensions in place and keeping them where you want them.
Don’t forget to backcomb your hair, which creates volume and gives your extensions some hair to hold onto. Braiding your natural hair at the base also gives the clips something more substantial to hold onto. You’ll also find that a special powder made for extensions will help keep them from slipping. This volumizing and texturizing powder can be found in beauty shops or ordered online. Hairspray is a helpful tool for creating some “glue” that your clips can adhere to.
