Hair extensions are widely loved thanks to the range of styles they offer, which can meet many specific hair goals. Clip-in  human hair extensions in NZ are a popular choice, but many people don’t realise there are options out there that are much easier to apply. In this blog post, we discuss ponytail and halo-weft extensions, and why they make a great alternative to clip-in extensions.

Clip-in Hair Extensions

Before we can get into the alternatives, we need to discuss the pros and cons of clip-ins. In theory, they’re easy to apply, and this means that you can do it yourself. But to get the most natural look out of your clip-ins, it can take a whole lot of time and patience—and probably even a friend to help you.

When attached properly, you can create some gorgeous volume and extra length with them, but wearing clip-in extensions for an entire day can put a lot of strain on the head and can feel extremely uncomfortable and tight. Don’t get us wrong, clip-ins are fantastic, but some people may find them too difficult to install or may be looking for a more comfortable all-day wear

Ponytail Extension

Available in a huge range of lengths and colours, a wrap-around ponytail with a clip is the perfect solution for a quick hair fix—achieving a long, voluminous, and realistic ponytail. The best part, of course, is that it only takes about 2 minutes to apply, then you’re ready to rock your new—but temporary—locks.

Since our ponytail extensions are made from 100% real, high-quality human hair, they can be curled, toned, straightened, and washed with care. Depending on the usage, a ponytail extension will last anywhere between 3 and 18 months—the better you care for it, the longer it’ll last!

To apply, all you need to do is tie your hair in a ponytail, then take the upper part of the extension ponytail with the clip and secure it into the root of your natural ponytail. Take a long, thin piece of hair to wrap around your natural ponytail, make it extra secure with a clasp, and you’re done! Yup, it’s that easy, no need to figure out where to place it, or trying to hide bulky clips—just a quick application, mirror check, and you’re good to go!

Halo-Weft Extension

Our Halo Weft extensions are one of the greatest innovations in the market right now. They’re easy to apply, and give you a full head of long, beautiful, and natural-looking hair. These are so easy to apply that they’re without a doubt the best product to start out with if you’re new to the extension world.

Unlike clip-in extensions, there’s no need to section off your hair, saving a whole lot of time when you’re getting ready. Don’t worry though, the look is always salon-quality, seamlessly blended, and perfect for those of you who love wearing their hair down. All the freedom of human hair; use your favourite heat tools and, if you want to try a new look, they can even be dyed and toned (just not bleached)!

The Halo Weft extension set comes with one main halo piece that easily clips to the back of your head, with two smaller weft pieces that can clip into the front. Together, the three wefts come to a weight of only 180 grams—not too heavy for the natural volume they provide. Don’t spend all your time getting ready sectioning off your hair, have the perfect hair for a night out in an instant! They’re not just the easiest to apply either, they’re one of our most ‘invisible’ extensions available. No one will know the secret to your gorgeous hair.

Washing your hair when wearing a Hair Replacement Wig

How are our Men's Hairpieces are attached using tape

Losing hair can be frustrating for many men.Fortunately, hair replacement wigs and toupees have come a long way in recent years. They are a great option to restore your hair, especially if you want to avoid the risks that come with surgery.  In this blog we'll be going through the process of attaching a men's hair replacement piece. Refer to the video below for the detailed process captured on video:    Step 1: Hair Template  Your custom template will be used as indication for where your hairpiece will sit.  Step 2: Shave The markings you created on the head using the template, will now be used as indication on where to clean shave on the head. Step 3: Cut Cut off any extra base, if needed. Step 4: Tape Tape the hairpiece using double sided tape. Step 6: Attach The now taped hairpiece will be attached to the clean shaven area on the man's head. Step 7: Measure Hands on the forehead can be used as a guide to make sure hairpiece is not placed too far or forawrd or too far back on head.  Step 8: Place The hairpiece will then be pressed firmly on the head to make sure it is secure. Step 8: Cut and Style  The hairpiece can then be cut and styled to the man's preference. It is recommended to cut and style after hairpiece is attached rather than prior. This is to reduce any errors in the desired final look. Step 9: Smile Now there's a big grin going from left to right as you look at yourself in the mirror with your new hairdo.  Attaching a men's hair replacement wig/toupee is a fairly clean and easy process. Remember to choose a piece that matches your hair colour and type, and make sure you took good care of it. You'll be looking your most confident self !

Our newest addition! The famous 'GENIUS WEFT'!

Our newest addition! The famous 'GENIUS WEFT'!

Our newest addition to our Weft Collection is the “Genius Weft”. It is the most premium style of weft in the hair extension market and serves to be the most preferred choice among stylists. With traditional wefts, the seams are a lot thicker, however they able to be cut. These wefts suit those that are wanting that extra thickness. Hand-Tied Weft Extensions come much thinner, so it’s easy to blend into your hair without and lumps and bumps! However, they cannot be cut, so they if they are too long, they will need to be folded over when installing. Good thing about our new Genius wefts, they are both thin AND can be cut along the seams! Making it practically invisible! Its customization abilities are why it’s such a flexible choice. The Genius Weft uses a new method of machine weaving, which allows the hair to be tightly weaved meaning no return hair! Return hair is something that is usually present in Hand-Tied Weft Extensions. For many people return hair isn’t too much of an issue, however people with sensitive scalp can be irritated by those few strands that come apart. This new machine weaving method ensures that the above doesn’t occur. Traditional wefts come much denser, not allowing for it to be stacked on top of another seamlessly or create colour blends. Hand Tied Wefts, come less dense allowing you to layer multiple wefts and create unique blends. Genius Weft allows you to have more density than the Hand Tied all while still giving you the ability to create unique colour blends and stack multiple wefts. Coming in 30+ colours, SHE Genius Weft is ready to have our stylists on chokehold!   PLEASE NOTE: We highly recommend to not allow the use of Olaplex on the band of the extensions as the active ingredients in Olaplex can break the band.
