Houston Clip In Hair Extensions

Benefits of Clip In Hair Extensions

In Houston, clip in hair extensions are like fat free ice cream.  They both fulfill a craving, but without the guilt. Length and volume challenged hair one minute.  Full and voluptuous hair the next. Instant gratification without the glue or tape required by most semi permanent extension options.  Fortunately, clip in hair extensions have come a long way in the last decade.  They burst on to the beauty scene as low cost, stiff, synthetic hair that seldom blended well with your natural hair.  Not any more.  Today, clip in hair extensions are nearly indistinguishable from your natural hair.  They are light weight, soft and look like real human hair… because they are.

Clip in hair extensions made from 100% real human hair offer several benefits over synthetic sets. First  of all, you can style clip in extensions as desired. Do you have curls, light waves or super straight hair.  No problem.  Use a curling iron, blow dryer or flat iron just as you would on your normal hair.  Just remember that like on your normal hair, you should add a little heat protectant. In addition, real human hair extensions also take color.  To be safe, we recommend that you allow your hair stylist to color your extensions.  Color matching can be very difficult and the better the match, the better they look.

Installation and Maintenance

Normally, clip in hair sets contain five to seven pieces. Typically, hair length is between 18 and 24 inches long and each piece is between two and four inches wide.  The wider pieces are designed to go in the back of the head and narrow pieces on the side.  Installation only takes minutes, and the change is dramatic.  Consequently, clip in hair extensions have become quite popular for galas, weddings, holidays and any special event. Do you want Instagram ready hair in minutes? Try clip in extensions. You won’t regret it!  Due to their popularity, The Upper Hand often keeps a variety of clip in hair extensions in stock and ready to go and our salons.

Lastly, a few things you need to remember about clip ins.  First of all, they last several months with the proper maintenance.  Wash them every two or three weeks and store them laying flat in a humid free environment.  Also, do not sleep or swim with them in as pulling and stress on your natural hair could result.  Finally, clip in hair extensions are rarely returnable due to sanitary reasons.
