What you’ll need to clip-in your Deluxe Extensions:
- Bristle Brush
- Mirror
- Sectioning Clips
- Hairspray
1. Brush your hair
With all clip-in extensions, the first step is to brush your natural hair and hair extensions thoroughly to get rid of any tangles. Beauty Works Bristle Brushes have been developed specifically to gently detangle your hair. Deluxe Extensions contains 3 separate weft pieces; an 8” Nape piece, which is going to be applied at the back of the head, and two 11” pieces that can be applied on each side of the head. Make sure all wefts have been brushed thoroughly before starting.
2. Create Section #1
Next you’ll need to section your hair at the nape of your neck, ready to clip-in your 8” weft. You can use a pin tail comb or even your finger to create a straight, thin section of hair. A pro tip here is to keep the sections of hair clean and tidy, for easy application and a seamless blend. Then clip the rest of your hair up with a Sectioning Clip so it’s out of the way.
3. Backcomb and Hairspray
To ensure the extensions don’t slip, before applying each weft, back-comb each section at the root and spritz with a little hairspray before clipping the extensions into place. This will give your hair some extra texture for the clips to grab onto, making sure they won’t move around.
4. Clip in Weft #1
Now you can begin clipping in the first 8”, 3-clip weft piece. We’re starting with the smallest weft, as this is going on the smallest section on your head. We always suggest taking the weft that you are planning on clipping in, and measuring it against the section of your head, to make sure it fits perfectly.
Once you’ve measured the weft against that section of hair, begin clipping the weft in with the middle clip. If you start with the middle clip, you can make sure you have enough hair on either side of your head. After clipping the middle clip into place, secure both the left and right clips, like Nicole is here. Repeat this same order when clipping in all of the wefts.
5. Create Section #2
Now that the first weft is fitted, you can section your hair ready for the next weft. Separate your hair about an inch above your first clip and clip up the hair above the section. Backcomb and hairspray this section for extra grip.
6. Clip in Weft #2
Take one of the 4-clip, 11” wefts. Find the centre of your head and start with the middle clips, then move on to the left & right clips.
A top tip for a seamless blend, is to angle your extensions diagonally slightly around your face, with the extensions angled upwards towards your forehead.
7. Section and Clip in Weft #3
This is the last section before your finished look is nearly complete! Separate another section of your hair, a couple of inches below the crown of your head, and clip away the rest of your hair. Backcomb and hairspray the section then take your third weft piece; another 4-clip, 11” weft. Find the centre of your head and clip-in the weft the same way.
Let the rest of your hair down your hair now to check that you’re happy with the placement and begin styling your look!
9. Heat Protect your hair
It’s time to style your hair for a super seamless blend! As Beauty Works clip-in extensions are made from 100% Remy human hair, they can be styled just like your normal hair. Always make sure to use a heat protectant first to prevent any damage to both your hair and your extensions before styling. Nicole is using the 10-In-1 Miracle Spray as a heat protector, and spraying both her natural hair and her extensions - you need to do the same!
10. Style Your Hair
Nicole uses the Speed Styler to finish her hair. Our Speed Styler is great for quickly styling your hair to look and feel sleek and straight, whilst also allowing for your hair and your Deluxe Extensions to blend seamlessly. With our extra-large paddle styler, you can achieve salon-worthy hair in no time!
