4 Quick Tips To Know Before Applying Clip-In Extensions
- When using clip-ins, visualize the style before creating it because the upstyle and placement of braids will determine where to apply the extensions.
- If braiding in the crown or high on the sides of the head, don’t apply clip-ins higher than the occipital bone to ensure they stay hidden.
- Shampoo the extensions before styling, but don’t condition them—this creates more grip.
- Use five to 10 wefts on shorter hair when the goal is to add length. Use three wefts to add fullness to already-long hair.
