How to choose the correct length when buying HairExtensions


Hair Extensions come in different lengths.  Choosing your  length is very important when buying extensions.  Since we are all different heights and sizes,  the extensions will not fall the same way.  It is a good idea to have a particular look or style in mind.  If you are not sure,  ask  yourself, are you looking to add extensions for length or fullness?  Once you figure  that out, it is time to begin measuring.



Using a clothing  measuring tape (the soft one),  measure  your own hair and then decide on how much length you would like to add.  For example, if  the  length of your natural hair  is 10 inches and you would like to add 4 inches, you will need 14 inch extensions. If you want a full head of extensions with no leave out,  place the  tape on the  Crown of your head and bring it  down to your desired length.  Have a friend help you to hold the tape at the bottom while you hold the tape measure on your crown.   Then, write down the results.  If you want a partial weave  with your crown area left out, then it is best to start measuring from the top of your ear downward.  It is very important to measure properly to achieve the hairstyle you desire.

Remember when buying Curly hair or Deep Wave hair,  the hair is not stretched out straight, so it will appear shorter.   We recommend that you add 2 inches to your desired length so that you won't be disappointed the day your hair arrives.
