Investing in high-quality hair extensions is an excellent way to achieve longer, fuller hair instantly. However, the secret to pulling off a picture-perfect look is making sure your extensions blend seamlessly with your natural hair. At Superior Hair Extensions, we know that maintaining a natural appearance with extensions is a top priority. Whether you're an expert or a first-time user, these tips will help you keep your hair extensions looking as natural as possible.

Choose the Right Extensions for Your Hair Type

The first step to achieving a natural look with hair extensions is selecting the right type. Consider your hair’s texture, colour, and length to find extensions that match perfectly. At Superior Hair Extensions, we have a wide range of options to suit various hair types and styles, making it easier for you to find your perfect match.

  • Colour Match: The closer the colour of your extensions is to your natural hair, the more seamless the blend will be.
  • Texture Matters: If you have curly or wavy hair, choose extensions with a similar texture for a unified look.
  • Length Compatibility: Choose extensions that complement your current hair length to avoid an obvious transition.

Proper Hair Extensions Installation Is Key

Even the highest quality hair extensions can look fake if they’re not installed the right way. Whether you’re using clip-ins, tape-ins, or wefts, following the proper installation techniques is important.

Clip-Ins: For a natural look, section your hair and attach the clip-ins close to the roots, ensuring they’re evenly distributed.

Tape-Ins: Make sure the tape is properly secured, and the extensions lie flat against your scalp to avoid any visible lines. For a flawless and natural finish, they should be installed by a professional.

Halo Wefts: If using a halo weft, ensure it sits securely on your head and is well-hidden by your natural hair, blending seamlessly for a natural look.

Proper installation not only helps your extensions look natural but also prevents them from slipping or becoming visible throughout the day.

Blending Your Hair Extensions Seamlessly

One of the most important steps in keeping your hair extensions looking natural is blending them with your natural hair. This involves styling your hair and extensions together to create a smooth transition.

  • Cut and Layer: After installation, consider having your extensions cut and layered by a professional. This will help them blend more naturally with your natural hair.
  • Style Together: Always style your extensions and natural hair together. Use heat tools like curling irons or straighteners to ensure both your hair and the extensions have the same wave or curl pattern.
  • Tease for Volume: Teasing the roots of your natural hair can help cover the wefts or clips, ensuring they remain undetectable. By focusing on blending, you can achieve a natural, voluminous look that complements your overall appearance.

Maintain Your Hair Extensions Like a Pro

To keep your extensions looking natural and new over time, you must take care of them properly. Good maintenance practices not only extend the life of your hair extensions but also ensure they continue to blend seamlessly with your natural hair.

  • Gentle Washing: Use shampoos that are sulphate-free and conditioners designed especially for hair extensions. Wash your extensions regularly to keep them clean and soft, but avoid over-washing, as this can lead to dryness.
  • Proper Brushing: Use a brush specifically designed for extensions or a wide-tooth comb to avoid tangling and breakage. Always begin brushing from the ends and work your way up to the roots.
  • Avoid Heat Damage: While heat styling is often necessary to blend your extensions with your natural hair, try to use heat tools sparingly. When you do use them, apply a heat protection spray to prevent damage.

Taking these steps will help keep your extensions in perfect condition which in return, makes them look as natural as possible for as long as possible.

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.

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.
