Have you ever wondered how celebrities such as Halle Berry and Beyonce change their hairstyles so frequently, assuming glamorous hairdos almost at will? It is obviously not possible to shorten and grow their hair at such short intervals and wigs would not look quite as natural as their hair does when they perform on stage. The secret, my friends, is clip on hair extensions.
Extensions can work wonders with your hair, giving you long tresses which can be styled any way you like within a few hours. Your hair will look richer, fuller and you can get instant highlights of whatever color you choose. It is also a savior when you have had your own hair damaged.
Hair damage tends to happen more frequently to African American women as they frequently get their hair straightened, a process that involves having their hair pressed and chemically relaxed. If done too frequently, the hair can get damaged, especially as black hair is fairly delicate and gets impaired easily.
This is where beauty supply can be of help as they can be used to cover the hair that has been damaged till such time that a lady's real hair grows back again. Whichever reason you use black hair extensions for; you will have to come to a conclusion as to what method you are going to use to attach the additional hair. The first method is the clip-on one. If you have damaged hair, your stylist might recommend this procedure as it does not require any foreign substances, such as adhesives, to come in contact with your scalp.
The way this is carried out is by sewing the Hair Extensions into a lady's natural hair which is weaved around various threads thus creating a track. It is into these tracks that the new hair is stitched on. This process involves applying a bonding substance to the tips of both the natural hair as well as the additional batch of hair and then fusing them together either with a hot fusion tool, when it is called "hot" fusion, or by a cold method which uses a keratin-based polymer to effect the attachments.
