Natural Hair Extensions For Ladies

By Jessica Rogers


People wear hair extensions to enhance beauty, cover scars or for other reasons of their own. These are hair-like products made from real human hair or synthetic materials like plastic fibers. Real human hair extensions are more durable and of better quality but they are more costly. When one wears natural hair extensions, they acquire natural beauty and look.

There are many colors and styles for natural and fake extensions. The various styles usually have different ways of application. In terms of quality, synthetic products present more stiffness, which makes them not to blend properly with hair on the head when styled in. It is passed through processing, which sometimes leads to addition of external finishes like silicone coat. The coat makes them shiny and they fade with time.

Synthetic hairs are not meant to be colored since the strands get damaged by the bleach or ammonia in most dyes. Heat cannot be used to style synthetic products. This is unlike natural extensions which can be styled using curling irons, blow dryers and straighteners.

Like stated earlier, synthetic hair comes at a cheaper cost. The cheap cost is usually traded for poorer quality compared to real hairs. The poor quality means that they cannot last for a long period of time once they are styled on the head. They easily get damaged by heat, sun, rain, and chemicals among other factors. They longest they can last is a few months. This is a very short time compared to a period of up to a year that remy extensions can last with proper care and maintenance.

The key to maintaining that fresh look that one gets when they step out of a beauty salon is maintenance. After styling, it is important to keep the synthetic or Remy hair well maintained at all times. It is advisable to wash them one a regular basis. One can wash them in a sink and use a towel to dry out the water.

Conditioning can be done using shampoo and conditioners. The products used for conditioning should not contain sulfates or parabens. Shampooing should also be done if the product allows it. When shampooing, the roots should be targeted more. Drying should be done with air in what is called air drying. One should never go to bed with wet hair as part of proper maintenance.

Cases of allergic reactions are rare but there are possibilities for some people to experience reactions from the use of these products. In such a case a person should seek medical attention with immediate effect to avoid more harm from taking place. Synthetic products are more credited to causing allergic reactions as compared to natural extensions.

Lastly, one should have a good salonist for the job. Not every salonist is qualified for the job. Many in the market are attracted by the growth and the potential of making money in the industry. Thus, being careful is of utmost importance.
