Buying guide (read before you buy)
Seamless clip in hair extensions are bonded to a thin polyurethane weft instead of sewn onto a thick fabric one. That flat weft is the whole point. It lies against the scalp without a ridge, so nobody feels a lump running a hand through your hair and nothing shows when the wind lifts a section.
All 100% human hair, in twenty shades. Ten solid colors from ash black through light blonde, and ten balayage and highlight blends where the ends are lifted lighter than the roots. Lengths are 16 and 20 inches, with 24 inches in two shades.
How to choose your shade and length
Match to your ends, not your roots. Clip in extensions sit below the crown, so the shade that has to blend is the color at the bottom of your own hair, which is almost always lighter and warmer than the top. Between two shades, take the lighter one. A brighter piece under your own hair reads as a highlight; a darker one reads as a shadow.
The balayage sets solve a problem the solid colors cannot. If your own hair is painted, ombre or grown out from a lift, a single flat color sits as a stripe. The blended sets carry the gradient and disappear into dimensional color.
On length, 16 inches adds real body to hair already sitting at the collarbone. 20 inches is what most people mean when they say long. Wear a set for a week before you trim it. A stylist blending the ends into your own layers is what makes clip ins read as your hair rather than a set.
Questions people ask about clip in hair extensions
How do clip in hair extensions work?
Each weft has small pressure clips along the top edge. You section your own hair, back-comb a narrow strip at the root for grip, snap the clips shut on it, and drop the hair back over the top. Nothing is glued, taped or sewn, so a full set goes in and comes out in minutes.
How do you put in clip ins?
Start with the widest weft, low across the back where your head is broadest, about an inch above the nape. Work upward in horizontal sections so no two wefts sit on top of each other, and finish with the narrow one-clip pieces at the temples. Tease a small section at each clip point if the clips slide.
Do clip in extensions damage your hair?
Not when they are placed and removed properly, which is the real advantage clip ins have over permanent methods. Nothing bonds to your hair, so there is nothing to break at the attachment point. The two things that do cause damage are clipping to the same few strands daily and sleeping in them.
How long do hair extensions last?
A clip in set worn a few times a week lasts several months to a year. Because it is human hair rather than fiber, what wears out is the ends and the clips, not the strands. Take them out at night and hang or lay them flat rather than folding them into a drawer.
How do you wash and care for clip ins?
Every eight to ten wears is plenty unless you use a lot of product. Wash in a basin with sulfate-free shampoo, condition mid-shaft to ends, air dry flat. You can curl and flat iron them, but keep the iron at 350 and below and never put heat directly on the weft, which softens the bond.
How much do hair extensions cost?
It depends on the method, the length and whether the hair is human or synthetic. Clip ins are the least expensive way in, because there is no install fee and no maintenance appointment, and one human hair set gets reused for months. The range by method is broken down in the cost of hair extensions.

One set covers a full head for most people, and it comes out at the end of the day. If you want something that stays in for weeks, look at virgin bundles for a sew-in or a glueless headband wig for a full change with nothing sewn at all. Everything sits together under hair extensions, and there is a tutorial for applying them at home. Sets come back within 30 days of delivery: untouched for a full refund, worn for store credit, return shipping on you. See the return policy.
Frequently asked questions
How do I install Clip-Ins?
Clip-Ins are pretty easy to install and can be done quickly by separating the hair into sections and clipping the hair directly to those pieces of your natural hair.
How long does it take to install Clip-In hair extensions?
Clipping in hair extensions is a quick and easy process that should take about 10 minutes.
Do I need a professional to install Clip-Ins?
Nope! Clip-Ins are very versatile and simple to install yourself. You may want to bring them to a stylist to have them cut and colored or highlighted to fit in perfectly with your hair, but you will be able to easily add and remove them daily.
Will Clip-Ins damage my hair?
Clip-Ins are the safest extensions option for your hair, and should NOT damage your hair if you are using them properly! Be sure to attach clip-ins to enough hair that you don't feel them pulling on your natural hair. Always remember to remove them before you go to sleep so that the clips don't tug on your strands. Other than that, you should have no hair damage from using clip-ins.
How long do Clip-Ins Last?
The life-span of your clip-ins depends on how well you care for them. They can last anywhere from 3-6 months, to over a year if you wash them carefully, use heat protectant spray, and store them properly.
Can I use heat styling tools on my hair extensions?
Yes! Our clip-ins are made of 100% virgin human hair, so they can be styled exactly like your own hair. Blow dry it, iron it, curl it - just be sure to use a heat protectant spray!
