Whether you're looking to add volume, length, or a splash of drama to your look, clip-in extensions are an easy, non-committal solution. Perfect for women on the go, this step-by-step guide will help you apply your clip-ins flawlessly—even if you’re new to the process. And the best part? You can achieve salon-quality results right at home.
What You’ll Need
- High-Quality Clip-In Extensions – Shop Mayvenn’s Collection for premium, 100% virgin human hair extensions.
- A rat-tail comb for sectioning.
- Hair clips or ties to secure sections of your hair.
- A flat iron or curling iron for blending (optional).
Step 1: Prepare Your Hair
Start with clean, dry, and detangled hair. If your natural hair is wavy or curly, consider straightening or curling it to match the texture of your clip-ins for a seamless blend.
Pro Tip: Use a heat protectant to safeguard your strands before applying heat tools.
Step 2: Section Your Hair
Using a rat-tail comb, part your hair horizontally about an inch above the nape of your neck. Secure the rest of your hair on top of your head with a clip.
Step 3: Clip in the First Weft
Take a three-clip weft and open the clips. Starting at the center of your part, attach the middle clip first, pressing it firmly against your roots. Then secure the side clips, ensuring they’re evenly spaced and snug.
Pro Tip: Tease your roots slightly where the clips will go to create extra grip.
Step 4: Work Your Way Up
Repeat the process by creating new sections of hair, each about an inch above the previous one. Use wider wefts as you move toward the crown of your head. Reserve the smaller, one-clip wefts for the sides near your temples.
Shop the Perfectly Proportioned Clip-Ins for effortless styling.
Step 5: Blend and Style
Once all the wefts are in place, release your hair and gently comb through to blend the extensions with your natural locks. Use a flat iron or curling iron to style your hair as desired, ensuring the extensions and your hair flow seamlessly together.
Step 6: Secure and Finalize
For added security, lightly spritz a holding spray on your hair and extensions. Avoid heavy products to keep the hair lightweight and natural-looking.
Tips for Long-Lasting Results
- Store your extensions properly by hanging or placing them in a silk bag to avoid tangling.
- Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners to maintain the integrity of the hair.
- Avoid sleeping with clip-ins to prolong their lifespan.
