How to Put in Celebrity Hair Weaves

Some celebrity hair extensions feature weaves made from real human hair.

Using a hair weave for your own hair is an ideal way to spruce up your current look within minutes without extensive work and amounts of hair care products. Celebrity hair weaves are available from a variety of superstars and are sold in beauty outlets, department stores and from official company websites online. Putting a celebrity hair weave in does not take more than one person and only requires a few minutes before you will be on your way for the day with your fresh look.

Things You'll Need

• Hair weave
• Hair clips
• Duck bill clips
• Bobby pins

Instructions

1. Gather the celebrity hair weave that you have and lay it out on a flat surface, such as your counter or vanity. Read and review the specific instructions of the hair weave if you have additional pieces to work with included with the weave (for additional securing and support).

2. Snap open the clips of the hair weave along the edges and insides of the weave. Gently bend the closed clips in the opposite direction using your index finger and thumb from both of your hands.

3. Part your hair from one side to the other horizontally, separating the "upper layer" of your hair and clipping it out of the way on top of your head using a basic hair clip (or a duck bill clip).

4. Use bobby pins to secure the bottom layer of the remaining hair to keep it tucked away from your extensions. Alternatively, leave the hair hanging if you plan to incorporate your natural hair with the weave extensions.

5. Pick up the hair weave and hold it in the position you would like to place it into your hair. Place the middle clip beneath the crown of your head in the back, below the "upper layer" of hair you have clipped up. Snap the middle clip into place, pulling down on the lower layer of hair and securing it in place.

6. Snap the remaining hair clips on the weave into place, starting with the top sides of your head and working your way down and around to the center of your neck. When you reach the bottom of your head, pull upwards with the clip when snapping them into place to grab more hair for additional support.

7. Release the hair you had pinned up and incorporate the top layer of your natural hair with the weave and extensions -- adding curls or straightening it out to blend, adding depth and volume.

Tips & Warnings

• Open all of the clips on the hair weave or extensions before removing it from your head to prevent loss of hair, injury or damage to the weave itself.
