weft-hair-extensions

Are you thinking of transforming your hairstyle but feeling unsure where to start? Human weft hair extensions are a fantastic way to add length, volume, and versatility to your hair while maintaining a natural look. Whether you’re looking for a dramatic change or a subtle enhancement, these extensions can help you achieve your beauty goals with ease.

At Foxy Hair Extensions, we specialise in premium weft hair extensions designed for seamless integration and long-lasting results. In this guide, we’ll cover everything you need to know, from selecting the perfect extensions to caring for them properly, ensuring you get the best experience possible.

What Are Human Weft Hair Extensions?

Human weft hair extensions are an excellent option for anyone looking to change up their hairstyle. Unlike individual extensions, which attach to small sections of hair, wefts consist of rows of hair sewn together into a strip. This design offers flexibility and adaptability, allowing the wefts to be customised to fit various hairstyles and hair widths.

At Foxy you can find two types of  Weft Hair Extensions:

  1. Machine-made Wefts
    These wefts are thicker and more durable, making them ideal for those who need a long-lasting style that can withstand regular styling and wear.
  2. Genius Wefts
    Hand-tied wefts are thinner and less bulky, making them an excellent choice for those who prefer a more natural, seamless finish. They’re particularly suitable for fine or thin hair as they lay flatter against the scalp.

Why Choose Human Weft Hair Extensions?

Human weft hair extensions offer a range of benefits that make them a popular choice:

  1. Natural Appearance
    Since they’re made from real human hair, these extensions blend effortlessly with your own hair, giving you a fuller and more natural look.
  2. Versatile Styling Options
    Whether you prefer sleek straight locks, voluminous curls, or an intricate updo, human weft extensions behave just like your natural hair. You can curl, straighten, and even colour them to suit your style.
  3. Longevity
    With the right care, human weft hair extensions can last for months, making them a worthwhile investment. Regular maintenance ensures they stay in great condition.
  4. Comfortable to Wear
    Weft extensions are designed to distribute weight evenly across your scalp, making them comfortable to wear all day without causing strain or tension on your natural hair.
  5. Flexible Installation Options
    From sew-in and beaded weave hair extensions methods to temporary clip-ins, weft extensions can be installed in a way that matches your lifestyle and styling needs.

How to Choose the Perfect Weft Hair Extensions

Choosing the right extensions is essential for achieving the best results. Here are some tips to guide you:

  1. Match Your Hair Texture
    For a seamless blend, choose extensions that match the natural texture of your hair. Foxy Hair Extensions offer both Russian and Indian hair to cover a  variety of textures to suit your unique style.
  2. Decide on the Length
    Consider how much length you’d like to add. Subtle changes can add a touch of elegance, while longer extensions can create a dramatic, head-turning look.
  3. Choose the Right Colour
    Matching your extensions to your natural hair colour ensures they look flawless. Alternatively, you can opt for ombre or balayage styles for added dimension or a fun pop of colour.
  4. Consult an Expert
    If you’re unsure which type or style of extensions will suit you best, consult with a professional. At Foxy Hair Extensions, our team is here to offer personalised advice to help you find your perfect match.

Popular Methods for Installing Weft Hair Extensions

Human weft hair extensions can be installed in several ways, depending on how long you’d like to keep them in and how much upkeep you’re comfortable with:

  1. Sew-In Method
    This method involves braiding your natural hair into cornrows, then sewing the wefts directly into the braids. This technique provides a secure and long-lasting hold, making it ideal for those seeking a semi-permanent solution.
  2. Clip-In Extensions
    Clip-ins are perfect for temporary transformations. They can be easily applied and removed at home, offering maximum flexibility for special occasions or a quick style upgrade.
  3. Glue-In or Bonded Extensions
    Using a specialised adhesive, glue-in extensions provide a semi-permanent option that offers natural movement while staying firmly in place.
  4. Beaded Weft Method
    In this technique, small beads are used to attach the weft to your natural hair, providing a secure hold without the need for glue or braiding. This is a versatile option that allows for easy adjustments and maintenance.

Caring for Your Weft Hair Extensions

To keep your weft hair extensions looking their best, proper maintenance is crucial. Here are some tips to ensure their longevity and beauty:

  1. Wash with Care
    Use Foxy Hair Extensions shampoo to clean your extensions without stripping them of moisture. Focus on the scalp and let the shampoo rinse through the extensions naturally. Avoid scrubbing or tugging at the wefts.
  2. Condition Regularly
    Apply Foxy Hair Extensions conditioner to the mid-lengths and ends of the extensions to keep them soft and manageable. Avoid applying conditioner near the roots to prevent build-up around the attachment points.
  3. Use Heat Protectant
    Before using curling irons, straighteners, or other heat styling tools, apply a heat protectant spray to minimise damage and maintain the extensions’ shine.
  4. Brush Daily
    Use a wide-tooth comb or a brush designed for extensions to detangle your hair. Start from the ends and work your way up to avoid pulling at the wefts.
  5. Protect While Sleeping
    Tie your hair into a loose braid or ponytail before bed to prevent tangling and matting overnight. You can also use a silk or satin pillowcase for added protection.
  6. Schedule Regular Maintenance
    Visit your stylist every 6 weeks to ensure the extensions remain secure and your natural hair stays healthy.
