how to apply clip in extensions


How to Apply Clip in Hair Weave Extensions:

Practice opening and closing the clip: With the clip side of the piece facing you, put both thumbs on each side of the clip and the index fingers at the front side of the piece. Snap the clip open by applying pressure toward yourself with the index fingers. Similarly, close the clip by applying pressure away from yourself with the thumbs.

Practice snapping on hair: Using one of the 1 1/2" side pieces, practice attaching and removing the extension piece.

Separating the hair: Using a tail comb or your index fingers, practice parting the hair where you wish to attach the first extension.

Start the first part: Raquel Welch clip-in extensions should be attached from the bottom up. Starting at the lowest point on the hairline, and using a tail comb or your index fingers, creates a part where you wish to section off the hair.

Finishing the first part: Move the tail comb or your index fingers under the hair and along the scalp until the hair is separated from the right to the left hairline.

Clip up the hair above the part: Lift up all the hair above the part and clip it out of the way.

Prepare the first weft: Select one of the wider "back" wefts (if working with a complete kit, us the 6" width weft) and snap open all the clips.

Placement of the first weft: The clips should be placed on your own hair below the part so that the top of the weft is even with the part.

Placement of the first clip: The middle clip should be place first by locating at the middle of the nape. Place the clip on your hair just below the part. Moving the clip downward, catch your hair in the clip and snap it shut.

Placement of the second clip: The right clip is next. Holding the middle clip in place with your left hand, use your right hand to move the right edge of the weft as far as it will go around your head. As above, place the clip on your hair just below the part, and moving the clip downward, catch your hair in the clip and snap it shut.

Placement of the third clip: Finally, to attach the left clip, hold the middle clip in place with your right hand, and use your left hand to move the left edge of the weft as far as it will go around your head. As in the previous two steps, place the clip on your hair just below the part, and moving the clip downward, catch your hair in the clip and snap it shut.

Check for gaps: Now that all three clips are attached, run your fingers along the weft to make sure it lies flat against your head along the entire width. If there are any gaps, correct this by snapping the clip open, lifting it off hair and repositioning it so that the weft lies flat.

Preparing to place the second weft: This weft will be placed above the first weft. Release all the hair that was clipped out of the way in step six. Then, slightly above the weft that was just attached, make another part-as explained in steps 4 through 6.

Placing the second weft: Repeating steps 7-12, attach the next weft. To complete a style, follow steps 4-12 for each weft attached. (When working with a complete kit, start at the lowest point with the two 6" wefts, then attach the 7" weft, and finally the 8" weft.)

Placement of the side wefts: The four 1 1/2" wefts are meant to be attached to the sides of your head. Using two for each side, attach the first one just above the ear and the second one around the temple area.

Removing the wefts To remove a weft, snap open all the clips and gently lift up and away from your hair. Never try to remove a weft without first opening all the clips. Pulling or tugging to remove a weft can result in damage to your own hair.

the clip in hair extensions can be clipped in the hair in just a few seconds but, to secure them better in place you can try french braiding parts of your hair and clipping the extension in(or you can apply some hairspray close to the roots, tease the area with a rat tail comb and secure the clip.,..,
