Want to try hand-tied hair extensions but don’t know how much hair you will need for your new wefts?

We are here to help you! Read in our article all about this type of extensions and where to buy high-quality hair.



 

How to Prepare for Hand-Tied Weft Hair Extensions?



  • Find a professional stylist


Browse through their portfolio on the website, Instagram or Facebook.  Also, don’t forget to read the reviews of other clients who have already used their services.

  • Sign up for a consult


Only when a hairstylist can see you in person they will be able to understand what is best for your hair.

Also at this stage, you will be able to confirm once again the competence of the chosen stylist.

  • Buy quality hair


Ask the hairstylist what hair structure, color, weight, width and number of wefts and their size they would recommend for you. Visit I Love Slavic Hair iloveslavichair.com: here you will find the best hair extensions that can be customized for your requirements. The company is a direct vendor of Slavic and Russian hair: it is the best type of hair with which North American hairstylists work!

  • Prepare for the extensions


You’d better be prepared that this beauty procedure will take at least three hours. Your stylist will tell you the exact time.

Note that hand-tied wefts cannot be cut with scissors, otherwise the hair in it will fall apart.
How these extensions are done:

  1. A braid is made around your head.

  2. The hand-tied weft is sewn in it.


Reapplication procedure:

  1. First of all, the sewn-in weft is removed

  2. Then the old braid is undone and a new one is made

  3. The new braid is re-sewn with a hand-tied weft.


 

How Much Hair Extensions Do I Need For a Full Head?


Your hairstylist can advise you on the amount of hair that you need to buy for extensions.

  • On average, a beam of 100-150 grams made of multiple wefts will be more than sufficient if, for example, hair length is 20"-26" (50-65 cm).

  • The more wefts you want within 100 grams, the thinner they are. For example, if you take 6 wefts made of 150 gr of 26" hair, you’ll get the extensions of average thinness (most of the strands will go for length rather than for thickness).


Try that type of extensions professionally installed, and we’re sure you won’t trade it for any other!
