CLIP-IN HAIR EXTENSIONS
Clip-in hair extensions are a popular, non-permanent method to add instant length, volume, and thickness to your natural hair. They consist of multiple wefts (sections) of hair that come with small, secure clips sewn onto the base. These clips are designed to easily attach to your natural hair without the need for professional tools, glue, or heat.
Each set typically includes a variety of wefts in different widths to be placed across your head—at the back, sides, and crown—ensuring a natural and full appearance. The clips are pressure-sensitive and lined with a soft material to prevent damage or discomfort when worn.

SYNTHETIC HAIR EXTENSIONS
Synthetic Hair has become increasingly popular over the last decade, especially with thanks to social media and our glam AF influencers taking over! But before making a purchase as a first-time buyer or even just changing your preference, it’s crucial to know why Synthetic Hair is the one for you and here’s why…
Synthetic Hair is made from a man-made mono fibre material which is chemically processed during the manufacturing process to achieve its style and unique colour. You’d like to know that Synthetic Hair is typically a lot cheaper than Real Human Hair Extensions due to its shorter lifespan (don’t let this put you off) With the best maintenance and aftercare, these can last quite a long time keeping in tip-top condition and remaining amazing quality. Storing them in our Satin storage bag will keep them looking brand new and well-kept when you aren’t wearing them.
Although our Synthetic Clip-In Hair Extensions can not be dyed or toned like your natural hair can, colour choices are ever-improving and we constantly have new hues and even newer, our Rooted Balayage Blends collection is guaranteed to have the perfect match for you! Making it all the while easier to find the best shade without the permanent results.
It may be the case that this type of hair needs replenishing more than Human Hair, however, the lower price point makes them the ultimate solution for all the girlies wanting to achieve longer, fuller, beautiful hair without the price tag and without the styling fuss.
HUMAN HAIR EXTENSIONS
Human hair extensions are made from 100% real human hair and are used to add length, volume, texture, and even color to natural hair. Unlike synthetic alternatives, human hair extensions look and feel natural, can be heat-styled, colored, and treated just like your own hair, making them the most preferred choice for a seamless and long-lasting transformation.
Types of Human Hair Extensions:
- Clip-In Extensions: Temporary and easy to apply at home using small clips. Ideal for occasional use without damaging your natural hair.
- Tape-In Extensions: Semi-permanent extensions that are taped to your natural hair and last 6–8 weeks with proper care.
- Sew-In (Weave) Extensions: Braided into the natural hair and sewn in, suitable for thick or coarse hair types.
- Micro-Link (Bead) Extensions: Attached using small beads or rings, without heat or glue. Requires professional application.
- Keratin Bond (Fusion) Extensions: Applied using a heat tool to bond keratin-tipped strands to your natural hair.
Features and Benefits:

- Styling Flexibility: Can be curled, straightened, blow-dried, and dyed.
- Long-Lasting: With good care, human hair extensions can last from several months up to a year.
- Customizable: Available in different textures (straight, wavy, curly), lengths, and colors.
Hair Quality Grades:
- Remy Hair: The highest quality, where the cuticles are aligned in the same direction to prevent tangling and ensure smoothness.
- Virgin Hair: Hair that has never been chemically processed or colored.
- Non-Remy Hair: Mixed-direction hair, more affordable but prone to tangling if not processed properly.
Maintenance Tips:
- Use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners.
- Gently detangle from the ends to the roots.
- Avoid excessive heat and always use a heat protectant.
- Store clip-ins in a dry place and brush before and after each use.
