Hair extension: reviews. Video

Today, there are many effective ways to quickly become the owner of a thick and long hair. Each method has its own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. You can read the reviews on the forums in advance, which will save you nerves, time, money and health.

However, all methods have some common rules and contraindications. The procedure can only be performed on healthy hair. Do not overload weak, thin, dry curls, trying to hide their appearance. Refuse to build up in the direction of a comprehensive treatment.

Building up should be entrusted only to a professional master. So you will avoid many negative moments during wear and after removing artificial hair. Also remember about the subsequent regular spending on correction, special cosmetics and accessories.

Stretching strands using a tape method refers to the “cold” technologies, which are considered the most gentle. The main advantage of this type is the ability to create a chic hairstyle even on very thin hair. Wide ribbons are attached almost at the roots, do not cause a feeling of tightness and discomfort. A significant disadvantage is the need for correction in 1,5 months.

Among the positive aspects of tape build-up, girls note the natural appearance of the attached curls, the indistinguishability and softness of the fastening tapes. A separate plus of the beauties is put by German technology: it uses a polymer, neutral for hair, as a fixer.

However, there are also negative reviews. Tape hair extensions greatly reduce the possibility of creating hairstyles: attached ribbons become visible with certain styling methods. Basically, in this type of procedure, hair from European manufacturers is used. Unfortunately, their quality cannot be called good, so new strands can quickly lose their beautiful appearance.

Some girls note that sometimes the ribbons become noticeable: they shine a little in certain lighting conditions. Especially at the moment it is worth paying attention to girls with dark hair.

The Spaniards propose to create a spectacular head of hair by gluing additional strands. The flat “plaques” are invisible, lightweight and hold the hair fairly firmly. However, the fastening material has a light shade, which can ruin the appearance of brunettes.

This method has two important advantages. The first is the “shelf life” of the new hairstyle: without correction it can be worn for almost six months. The second significant positive point is the resistant fastening material. Neither styling products, nor dye, nor care act on it, so hair extended using Spanish technology does not require careful handling.

The main negative point for girls is the painful removal of the attached strands. They also note that the consequences of the procedure are very harmful to natural hair: they begin to comb out and fall out. There is also a time limit for an emergency “release” of the head: at least after 2-3 weeks – the glue is characterized by increased strength.

English extension is one of the most popular ways to acquire beautiful hair in Russia. You can increase hair volume by almost 150 strands up to 70 cm long

The main advantages of this technique are a wide range of shades. You can not only combine strands of different colors, but also combine tones in one. The masters also note that the melting point is safe for your hair. However, keep in mind: choosing this way of building, do not save on a professional. Only he can create the perfect hairstyle.

However, negative reviews indicate the existing disadvantages of the popular build-up. Capsule mounts glow a little under neon lighting, so hair draws a lot of attention in a disco. With the curls extended by this method, you cannot steam in the bath / sauna: the capsules will begin to melt. In a month you will lose a lot of donor hair – up to 30%. However, the girls add: the appearance and volume of the hairstyle does not get worse because of this, and the correction procedure will be required only after a few months.

English extensions will not allow you to maintain the beauty and health of your own hair: it is prohibited to use balms, masks, and various oils. The chemical composition gradually destroys the keratin at the attachment point, so the “shelf life” of the strands is sharply reduced. Also, the hair always needs to be hot dried.
