Tips & Warnings
Always match your hair texture and color as closely as possible when choosing hair extensions. You will want your "new" hair to look natural and blend well with your own.
If you have thin, brittle hair, consider wearing a wig instead of hair extensions, as this will help minimize further damage.
Some weaving techniques may require the help of a licensed cosmetologist to minimize damage and breakage.
