It can be tempting to want to quickly add length to your locks with something as effective and convenient as hair extensions. But with extensions come tying, glues, and tension to your scalp.
All this added pressure can do a number on the healthy hair that you dohave, making it more prone to breaking or growing out to begin with. Suddenly you find yourself in a cycle of never-ending extensions, wondering why your hair doesn’t seem to be getting thicker, fuller, or longer.
Less Damaging Extension Options
A less invasive alternative to traditional sewn-in extensions is to buy high quality clip in extensions that can be worn whenever you want or left off altogether. Like a barrette, they snap in under your healthy hair and allow you to rotate them, lessening the damage to pressure points across your scalp.
As your hair grows and gets healthier, you can give your extensions up for good.
But even clip-in extensions can be damaging to brittle hair.
Encourage Healthy Hair Growth
Some people find that taking prenatal vitamins can help their skin, hair, and nails look their best (and grow faster, in the case of hair and nails that is.) Using hair products that contain omega-3 nutrients can strengthen your locks and make them healthier.
But what if extensions are your only option, because of thinning hair and balding across your scalp?
