Everyone wants long, thick and healthy-looking hair. But unfortunately, not all of us are blessed with it. Some of us have hair that’s thin and limp, and no amount of castor oil or hair supplements seem to make an ounce of difference. But does this mean you have to give up on your dream hair that looks long, lustrous and thick? Absolutely not!
Because this is where *drum roll* permanent hair extensions come to the rescue. For those of you who don’t know, these extensions help you fake longer and fuller locks without looking even a tiny bit unnatural. If you are considering getting these extensions, we suggest you read this article for a complete low down before taking the plunge.
What exactly are permanent hair extensions?
Permanent hair extensions can be worn continuously for many months. They attached to your hair using the strand-by-strand by method. This process uses many micro rings or bonds to attach the extension to many strands so that these extensions can last for at least 6-8 months.
What are these extensions made of?
But will they damage my hair?
How do I maintain them?
One of the most important things to remember before getting permanent hair extensions is that you will have to spend at least a few extra minutes to wash, style and maintain them. You should never blow dry your hair extensions as it can loosen the glue, make your hair sticky and even slip down. You will need to prevent them from getting tangled while you sleep and to do this, you must tie your hair in a loose braid or bun and cover it with a satin scarf or switch to a satin pillowcase. Invest in a good quality leave-in conditioner and apply it after every hair wash, without fail.
