Men and women in the initial stages of hair loss, anywhere from
5-20% hair thinning, are ideal candidates for hair extensions.
Hair extensions involve attaching human or synthetic hair
extensions directly to the natural hair for a free-flowing natural
look. There are many different methods for attaching the
extensions. They can be used for adding length, fullness,
color and texture to the hair style.
Some of the different attachment methods include heat bonding,
cold bonding, mini locs, clips, links, sleeves, string, sew-in and
more. The type of attachment will greatly affect the condition
of your current hair loss condition. There are also many different
types and grades of human and synthetic hair.
The method of attachment often times dictates the type of hair
that will be used.
Hair extensions can be a little pricey, especially if you are
going for quality. You definitely get what you pay for with hair
extensions, as they are not cheap. Many stylists receive special
training from various hair extension companies and become certified

one size fits all, and some methods may not be suitable for certain
hair textures and conditions.
