A Guide to Quality Hair Extensions

Hair extensions are labeled as artificial because they don’t grow from the natural hair’s root. Despite this, you may choose to wear them for a number of reasons. In most cases, you want to add length and volume to your hair. You may also use a full cap or partial cap hair extension to give your natural hair time to grow. No matter what your reason might be, this is an ideal solution for great hair.

Hair extensions are factory-made in various forms, using a variety of application methods, some of which include:

How Often Should You Wash Your Hair Extensions, Wigs or Weave?

Washing hair replacement products is necessary.

Learning when to wash your hair replacement pieces is necessary.

When most people consider hair care, they are usually referring to their natural hair. However, the use of hair extensions, wigs and weaves has become a trend-right alternative or addition to natural hair. Despite the fact these hairpieces often look just like human hair, they typically don’t require daily maintenance. Learning how often to wash these products will ensure they last longer and always look natural. On the other hand, not washing them often enough can lead to a faster breakdown of the individual strands and hair that won’t hold its shape and style.

Hair Extensions

Hair extensions are made from natural human hair or synthetics. Both are designed to supplement the hair you already have. These extensions should be washed with a moisturizing sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner that will ensure the hair won’t dry out. This is especially important if you use heat styling products on your natural hair extensions. Most experts agree it’s not necessary to wash your extensions every day. Instead, you should try to wash them three times a week for optimal cleaning and moisturizing.

Synthetic Wigs

Whether you have hair loss or you enjoy wearing wigs to change your hairstyle on a regular basis, a synthetic wig can be a great option. Even though these wigs are made from synthetic materials, they closely replicate real human hair. In addition, synthetic wigs don’t require daily maintenance. Depending on how often you wear the same wig, it only needs to be washed once every 10 to 15 wears. However, you need to be particular about the shampoo you use on your wigs. Look for a sulfate-free shampoo approved for use on synthetic hair. This will ensure the wig material is protected and looks like genuine hair for longer. 

Hair Weaves

A hair weave is a great way to add volume or length to your natural hair. These weaves can be designed from human or synthetic hair. Regardless of the type of hair used in the weave, it is essential to wash with a sulfate-free shampoo every seven to 10 days. Please note that when washing your weave, it is important not to use any motions that can tangle the hair. This can cause the weave to pull out sooner than expected. A high quality shampoo will reduce the risk of tangling and other damage.

While human hair often requires the daily maintenance of washing and conditioning, hair extensions, wigs and weaves do not require the same care. This is true whether they are made from human or synthetic hair. Learning the differences in the washing frequency of these hairpieces will help you extend the life of your wigs, weaves and extensions so you can enjoy beautiful hair for longer.

If you are looking for the right shampoo for your extensions, wigs or weave, RemySoft pro hair care is safe for all human and synthetic hair. It’s a simple, sulfate-free product that smoothes, detangles and protects.

Hair Extension Trends for 2014

Add curls with hair extensions.

Hair extensions can give you curly hair.

Are you happy with the way your natural hair looks? Lucky you! If not, you may want to make changes that will better suit your sense of style. Whether you enjoy changing your hairstyle often or you want to update your look with a new trend, hair extensions may be the answer. This year, hair replacement follows several fashion styles that will allow you to create the unique and beautiful hair you’ve always wanted.

Long Hair Extensions

Having short hair can limit how you style your hair. If you want to dress up your hair for a special occasion, longer hair may be a better option. If you don’t have the desire or time to grow your hair out, long hair pieces can be the perfect solution. These hair replacement pieces can lengthen your hair and give you more choices for up-dos and other styling methods that your shorter, natural hair won’t allow. The best part is you can return to your shorter hair quickly and easily by removing the extensions.

Curly Hair

Not everyone is blessed with naturally curly hair. Sometimes hair is so straight, even getting a perm doesn’t create the beautiful curls you are looking for. If you want to add some beautiful curls to your hairstyle, one of the easiest ways is to choose hair pieces that provide you with the look you want. Curly hair extensions come in a range of curl levels, from mildly wavy to extremely curly. The choice is yours. These hair replacement pieces come in both synthetic and natural fibers, as well as a variety of shades so you can find the one that best matches your natural hair or try a contrasting one!

A Touch of Color

Another reason individuals may choose a hair extension product over their natural hair is to add a touch of color to their hairstyle. Extensions can provide a gradated look to your hair — a growing trend on the fashion scene. If you have ever seen someone with the addition of colored or bleached tips, it is likely the result of adding hair pieces to their natural hair. While some individuals may dye their hair in that ombre effect, hair extensions allow you to add this touch of color on a temporary basis. You can choose to remove them at any time.

Thanks to the escalating hair extension trends this year, modernizing your hairstyle can be as simple as adding hair extensions to your natural hair. These temporary hair replacement pieces can provide you with an entirely new look without having to make more permanent changes to your hair. You can quickly and easily return to your original hairstyle. The use of hair pieces is no longer only for the rich and elite or those who are having serious issues with their natural hair. They are now a great option for anyone who wants a new, updated look.

Update Your Hair without Scissors

Change your hairstyle without scissors.

Hair pieces allow you to change your hair without scissors.

Are you ready for a new and exciting change from your current hairstyle? Do you know that you can update the look of your hair without the use of scissors? Most women at one time or another experience a “bad hair day” or may want a quick change from their everyday look for a special occasion. These days, there are a variety of ways to transform your appearance. If you want to reinvent your hairstyle without having to sacrifice the length of your hair with the snip of the scissors, here are some creative ideas.

Hair Extensions to Tweak Your Hairstyle

No longer do you have to cut your hair in a bob or wait for it to grow back in. If you are in a styling rut, you can tweak your hairstyle using hair extensions. It can take less than an hour to change your entire look. In order to do this, you can apply the extensions yourself, or you can go to a hairdresser who specializes in hair replacement.

Clip-On Bangs for a No-Chop Update

Having bangs can make a huge difference in your appearance. Once you commit to bangs, if you don’t like the look, it can take a long time for them to grow back. There is a solution that doesn’t involve cutting them. Clip-on bangs or hair pieces with bangs are right on trend this season. Remember, the bangs are not permanent so you can try them first to see if you like the look before you fully commit to a new style.

Lengthen to Glamorize

If your natural hair could benefit from extra volume and length, a Remy hair weave is ideal to provide glamour, allure and elegance. This will not only give your hair a full, healthy look, it will protect your natural hair from damage caused by the harmful rays of the sun, daily blow drying and styling. A hair weave is an easy solution to full, healthy-looking hair. With proper maintenance and care, a hair weave can last up to three months.

Bob Your Tresses without Trimming

The bob look is never outdated. It is one of those styles that can work for every season and any occasion. In fact, you will be able to create an entirely new look with a faux bob. Fortunately, you don’t have to cut your own hair to achieve this style. Why not create an imitation bob using a full cap weave that was already styled into a bob?

Change Your Part

Another way you can update your hairstyle is by changing the way you part your hair. If you are accustomed to wearing the part on the left side, right side or in the middle, change the location. A sophisticated side part adds asymmetry to the face and gives you an exotic and sleek appearance.

These hair enhancement strategies are only a few of the many ways to create an accentuated expression of yourself. Whatever style you choose, begin first by refreshing your natural or synthetic hair with RemySoft Pro Haircare Products, formulated safe for all human hair, wigs and extensions.
