Fortunately, there is another solution to lengthening hair is Extension for short hair in Brisbane. In addition, it allows you to add volume, and adopt a cut and a particular coloring.

How to put extensions on short hair?
Hair extensions give a person the ability to change the look in less than an hour. You can adapt the hairstyle you want, loose, tied, or semi-tied. You have the choice between perfectly straight, wavy, curly, or even curly hair.
It is possible to use synthetic extensions, certainly less expensive, but more sensitive and fragile. Their lifespan is limited as is the type of hairstyle. Also, you cannot style synthetic extensions with strengtheners or curlers. In addition, they cannot be colored or discolored. Worse still, synthetic extensions don't blend naturally into your hair. This is why it is advisable to opt for natural hair extensions. It should be noted that the extension is more complex on short hair than on long hair.
First, you need to use more strands to achieve the desired length. You must have hair of at least 4 cm to be able to apply clip-in extensions or tape-in extensions. The best is to have hair that reaches the nape of the neck. Otherwise, the cut and rendering of the extension will not be perfect.
The maximum length of extensions is limited to 30 cm for short hair. They are not able to sustain a longer length. Before taking the step, you must choose the quality of the locks used, the perfect match between your pigmentation and the extensions. Do not hesitate to inquire about the choice and the number of wicks as well as the type of installation that suits you. The installation of an extension lasts on average 3 hours depending on the length and thickness of your hair, but also that of the extensions.
How to maintain your natural hair extensions?
Inexpensive natural hair extensions have the advantage that they can be cared for like your own hair. You must wash them regularly with shampoo without toxic components. Gently massage your hair extensions from root to tip. Be careful not to rub vigorously at the junction between the natural hair and the hair extensions. Use nourishing masks and serum or cream to properly moisturize and easily style your hair. Dry your hair with a soft towel. Then use a hair dryer on low heat or even better on cold mode and at a distance of at least 10 cm from the skull. Then, gently brush your extensions to avoid tangles. You can use a blow-dry or an iron to style your hair. It will even be possible to color your new keratin extensions or clip-in extensions.

If you choose clip-in extensions, you can remove them by removing the clips before sleeping. However, this is not possible for keratin extensions. In this case, first, brush your hair and plait it before going to bed so as not to damage it. It is quite possible to swim with your natural hair extensions, whether in the pool or the sea. Just be sure to attach them well and rinse them with fresh water after each swim.
