About Hair Extensions
Heat styling and colouring limits
Most human-hair extensions tolerate heat up to 180 degrees Celsius. Bleach lightens them but weakens the fibre, so lift by no more than one level. Repeated toners shorten lifespan. Always ask the stylist to perform a strand test before any colour service on attached extensions.
Questions worth asking before booking
Ask what hair brand and origin they use, how many grams the quote includes, and how many hours the fitting takes. Request the recommended refit schedule and total lifespan in months. Also ask who will perform the work, whether a patch test is needed, and what happens if a bond slips within the first week.
Extension methods you can choose from
The main methods are tape-ins, micro-rings, micro-bonds, clip-ins, sew-in weaves, and keratin-tip strands. Tape-ins use adhesive panels and sit flat against the head. Micro-bonds use small keratin tips fused with heat. Micro-rings use tiny metal beads crimped onto natural hair. Each method lasts a different time and suits different hair types.
How much hair you actually need
Most full-head applications use between 100 and 150 grams of hair, depending on length and desired density. Fine hair usually needs fewer grams to avoid tension at the roots. The stylist should weigh the bundles in front of you. Adding too much weight is a frequent cause of traction damage.
Washing and brushing without damage
Use sulphate-free shampoo and avoid scrubbing the bonds. Apply conditioner from mid-lengths down, never on the bonds. Brush with a loop brush or wide-tooth comb, starting at the ends and working up. Sleeping on a silk pillowcase and tying hair in a loose braid reduces friction and morning tangles.
What health and scalp risks to watch for
Tension alopecia appears as thin patches along the parting or temples. Redness, itching or small bumps near the attachments usually signal a reaction to adhesive or metal. Heavy wefts pulling on fine hair can cause breakage. Request a pull test before any installation begins to reduce risks.
Warning signs of poor extension work
Visible gaps between bonds, matting near the roots, or extensions sitting at very different lengths all suggest rushed work. Discomfort during fitting, glue showing on tape-ins, or beads that pinch the scalp are also red flags. A good result looks even, feels light, and allows free movement without pulling or snapping sounds.
Matching the extension hair to your own
Good stylists check colour in daylight, not salon light. They compare the mid-lengths and ends, not just the roots, since extensions sit lower on the strand. Texture, density, and wave pattern also matter. Real human hair behaves like your own, while synthetic fibres melt under flat irons above 180°C.
How long a fitting appointment takes
A full tape-in application takes about 1 to 2 hours. Micro-ring or keratin bond fittings run 3 to 5 hours for a full head. Touch-ups and repositioning usually take 1 to 2 hours. Ask the salon to confirm the expected duration so you can plan around it properly.
Heat and colour limits to know
Most human hair extensions tolerate flat irons up to 180°C, but bonds can loosen above 200°C. Repeated bleaching shortens lifespan because cuticle layers wear down. Toning or semi-permanent glosses are safer than full bleach. Always test a small hidden strand before applying any strong chemical product.
