Clip In Extensions FAQ

WHY CLIP-IN EXTENSIONS?

Effortless & Swift Application: Clip-in extensions are designed for speedy and straightforward application, aligning perfectly with your packed schedule for rapid client makeovers.

Gentle on Hair: These extensions are created with hair health in mind, reducing the risk of damage and preserving the natural integrity of your clients' hair.

Seamlessly Natural Appearance: They blend effortlessly with natural hair, offering an undetectable, stylish enhancement.

Versatility in Styling: Clip-ins provide the flexibility for numerous hairstyles, allowing for the concealment of extensions while styling. Just place them wherever and at whatever angle you need for the perfect style.

Cost-Effective & Reusable: These high-quality extensions represent a long-term investment, thanks to their reusability, both you and your clients will love.

Comfort for All Day Wear: Our clip-ins are designed with your clients' comfort in mind, ensuring they not only look fabulous but feel great all day.

Universal Hair Compatibility: Suitable for a wide range of hair types, these extensions cater to a diverse clientele - even those with baby fine hair.

Customization Options: Available in a variety of lengths and colors, clip-in extensions offer tailored solutions for your clients' unique preferences.

Yes, there are different types of clip-in extensions available.

Traditional clip-ins typically have a thicker weft top, which some wearers find more noticeable. However, our exclusive brand line stands out with its unique stacked weft design.

This innovative structure allows the extensions to lay flatter against the scalp, facilitating easier styling and a more seamless blend with natural hair.

This design enhancement significantly improves the overall look and feel of the extensions, making them a preferred choice for stylists and clients alike.

Clip-in extensions differ from other types of hair extensions in several key ways:

  1. Application Method: Clip-in extensions are designed for temporary wear and can be easily applied and removed by clipping them onto natural hair. This contrasts with methods like tape-ins, sew-ins, or fusion extensions, which are more semi-permanent and require professional removal.
  2. Commitment Level: Clip-ins are low-commitment; your client can choose to wear them only on special occasions or daily, depending on their preference. Other types, like sew-ins or keratin bond extensions, are worn continuously for several weeks or months.
  3. Damage to Natural Hair: Clip-ins are considered damage free since they don't involve heat, glue, or tight braiding.
  4. Maintenance and Upkeep: Clip-in extensions are easier to maintain. They can be removed before activities like swimming, sleeping, or showering, which helps them last longer. Semi-permanent extensions require more careful maintenance and specific hair care routines.
  5. Cost: The initial cost for clip-ins may be a little higher depending on the hair you choose, but they often prove more cost-effective for clients in the long run as they don't require additional maintenance and can still be reused multiple times.
  6. Versatility in Styling: Clip-ins offer more flexibility in terms of styling. You can change your look frequently, adding length or volume as desired. More permanent extensions offer less versatility since they are fixed in place for a certain period.
  7. Comfort and Weight: Clip-in extensions are typically more comfortable as they can be adjusted or removed if they become uncomfortable, whereas other types like tape-ins or micro-links remain in your hair until professionally removed.

WHAT HAIR QUALITY IS THIS?

Yes, our clip-in hair extensions are made from 100% human hair, a quality that's pivotal for achieving a natural look and versatile styling options.

As a professional stylist, being able to distinguish real human hair extensions from synthetic ones is crucial. Here are a few tips to help you identify genuine human hair extensions:

  1. Texture and Feel: Human hair has a natural softness and smoothness that is hard to replicate in synthetic fibers. Run your fingers through the hair - if it feels sleek and mimics the texture of natural hair, it's likely human hair.
  2. Heat Resistance: Human hair can withstand heat styling, unlike most synthetic options which can melt or become damaged. Perform a strand test with a flat iron or curling iron at a low temperature. If the hair styles without damage, it's a good indication of human hair.
  3. Color Variation: Human hair often exhibits slight natural color variations, whereas synthetic hair tends to have a more uniform, solid color.
  4. Reaction to Water: When wet, human hair will retain its texture and will not become excessively tangled or matte like some synthetic fibers.
  5. Burn Test: In a controlled environment, take a small strand and burn it. Human hair will burn quickly and smell like burnt hair, while synthetic hair melts and smells like burning plastic.
  6. Cost: Generally, human hair extensions are more expensive than synthetic ones due to their higher quality and longevity.

Remember, as a professional, it’s important to source your hair extensions from reputable suppliers to ensure authenticity and quality. This will help maintain your reputation for using high-quality products, ensuring the best results for your clients.

When purchasing clip-in hair extensions online, determining their quality without physically examining them can be challenging. We offer a 30 day, no-hassle return so you can inspect them upon arrival.

Here's what to consider:

  1. Consistent Length to the Ends: High-quality hair extensions should maintain their thickness and fullness all the way to the ends. Look for product descriptions and customer reviews that mention the extensions being lush and not thinning out towards the ends, indicating good density and uniformity.
  2. Overall Thickness and Fullness: The best extensions are thick and full, giving a natural and voluminous look. Pay attention to the weight mentioned in grams - a higher number typically means fuller extensions. Additionally, reviews and customer photos can be insightful, showcasing the actual fullness of the extensions when worn.
  3. Type of Stitching and Weft Design: The construction of the weft is crucial for durability and comfort. Our Doctored Locks clip in extensions feature a unique stacked weft design, which allows them to lay flatter and blend more seamlessly with the natural hair.
  4. Clip Quality: The clips on the extensions are just as important as the hair. They should be sturdy, comfortable, and secure, without causing damage to natural hair. Good quality clips have a silicone strip backing to ensure a tight grip and prevent slipping.
  5. Product Images and Videos: High-resolution images and videos can give you a closer look at the texture, shine, and quality of the hair, as well as the craftsmanship of the weft and clips.
  6. Brand Reputation and Customer Service: A reputable brand with responsive customer service is a good indicator of quality. They should be willing to answer your questions and provide detailed information about their products.
  7. Customer Reviews and Testimonials: Real customer experiences can be incredibly valuable. Look for detailed reviews that discuss the aspects you're interested in, such as the hair’s thickness, the weft construction, and the durability and comfort of the clips.

By considering these factors, you can make an informed decision when purchasing clip-in hair extensions online, ensuring that you provide your clients with the best quality products.

For a professional stylist like you, it's important to know the longevity of the hair extensions you're offering to your clients.

The lifespan of clip-in hair extensions, particularly those made from high-quality human hair, can vary based on several factors.

Generally, with proper care and maintenance, these extensions can last several years.

The key factors influencing their longevity include:

  1. Frequency of Use: If the extensions are worn daily, they will naturally undergo more wear and tear compared to occasional use. For clients who wear them frequently, you might observe a shorter lifespan.
  2. Care and Maintenance: Proper care is crucial. This includes gentle washing with sulfate-free shampoos, regular conditioning, and careful brushing with extension-friendly tools. Also, advising clients to avoid excessive heat styling and to use heat protectant products can significantly extend the life of the extensions.
  3. Storage: Educating clients on how to store their extensions when not in use is important. They should be kept in a dry, flat position, preferably in a silk or satin bag to prevent tangling and damage.
  4. Quality of Hair: The initial quality of the hair plays a substantial role. High-quality human hair, with cuticles intact and aligned, tends to last longer than non-Remy or synthetic alternatives.
  5. Styling and Chemical Processes: Minimizing the use of harsh chemicals and heat styling tools can preserve the integrity of the hair for a longer period. If clients choose to color the extensions, it's crucial to do it professionally to minimize damage.
  6. Overall Handling: Gentle handling during application, removal, and styling can help maintain the extensions' quality. Avoiding tugging or pulling will prevent shedding and maintain the weft's structure.

BUYING CLIP IN EXTENSIONS ONLINE

When purchasing hair extensions online, seeking to provide the best for your clients, there are several key factors to consider to ensure quality and suitability. Here's a checklist to guide your online shopping:

  1. Hair Type and Quality: Ensure the extensions are made of high-quality hair, Check for descriptions about the hair's origin and processing.
  2. Brand Reputation: Research the brand's reputation. Look for customer reviews, before-and-after photos, and testimonials from other stylists. A reputable brand often guarantees better quality and customer service.
  3. Color Match: Look for detailed, accurate color descriptions and images. We offer color matching services via text or mail. The closer the match to your client’s natural hair at the ends, the more seamless the blend will be.
  4. Length and Weight: Ensure the extensions meet your client's desired length and volume. Check the weight (grams) of the extensions, as this affects how they blend and feel.
  5. Weft Design: Consider the type of weft. For clip-ins, look for features like thin, flat wefts (see our lace clip-ins - they are awesome!) for comfort, and small, high-quality clips with silicone inserts for a secure grip.
  6. Return/Exchange Policy: A good return and exchange policy is important, especially when color matching is done online. We offer a 30 day, no-hassle return.
  7. Customer Support: Evaluate the level of customer support offered. This includes pre-sale advice, assistance during the selection process, and post-purchase support. We have you covered each step of the way!
  8. Range of Options: A wide range of lengths, colors, and styles to cater to diverse client needs, allowing for more tailored services.
  9. Educational Resources: Especially beneficial for stylists, look for brands that provide educational content, tips, and tutorials on application, styling, and maintenance. We have over 300 instructional videos!
  10. Price Point: While quality often comes at a price, ensure the extensions are within your budget and offer value for money. Remember, the cheapest option may not always be the best in terms of quality and longevity.

By carefully assessing these aspects, you can make informed decisions that align with both your professional standards and your clients' needs. Remember, the right extensions can significantly enhance your service offerings and client satisfaction.

WHAT HAPPENS AT EXTENSION APPOINTMENTS?

Absolutely, conducting a hair extension consultation is vital for a seamless clip-in hair extensions experience. Here's an overview of the consultation process specifically tailored for clip-in hair extensions:

Understanding Client Lifestyle: Begin the consultation by discussing your client's daily routine and how it might affect the extensions. Make sure that the goals of the service and expectations are aligned.

Color Matching Process: The next step involves selecting the ideal shade that blends seamlessly with your client's natural hair. This ensures a natural, cohesive look.

Length and Style Determination: Discuss and decide on the perfect length that meets your client's styling desires, whether it's adding volume, length, or both.

Volume Assessment: Assess the number of clip-in extension pieces and lengths required to achieve the desired style.

Agreement and Planning: Conclude the consultation with a signed agreement and a deposit for the appointment. This will allow you to schedule the styling appointment and order supplies for the service.

This comprehensive consultation process ensures that your clients receive personalized and suitable clip-in hair extension options, leading to enhanced satisfaction and trust in your professional styling services.

During a styling appointment for clip-in hair extensions, the process typically includes:

  1. Final Payment & Before Photos: As the session begins, any remaining payments are settled, and 'before' photos are taken for reference and transformation documentation.
  2. Hair Preparation: The client's hair is pre-styled according to the desired final look. This preparation forms the base upon which the clip-ins will be applied.
  3. Clip-In Application: The stylist carefully places the clip-in extensions, starting from the lower sections of the head and working upwards. The clips are securely fastened to the client's natural hair, ensuring a comfortable yet firm hold.
  4. Blending and Styling: Once the clip-ins are in place, the stylist skillfully blends them with the natural hair. This may involve cutting or layering the extensions for a seamless integration. The hair is then styled as desired, whether it’s straightened, curled, or a natural wave pattern.
  5. After Photos: Post-styling, 'after' photos are taken to showcase the new look and the transformation achieved with the extensions.
  6. Education on Use and Care: The stylist educates the client on how to properly put in, take out, and care for the clip-in extensions, ensuring their longevity and maintaining hair health.
  7. Future Appointment Planning: If the client wishes, a follow-up appointment can be scheduled for a check-in, additional styling, or to explore other hair extension options.

This approach ensures a thorough and enjoyable experience for clients receiving clip-in hair extensions, highlighting the ease and versatility of this extension type.

For clip-in hair extensions, the concept of "moving up" the extensions, as required for semi-permanent types like tape-ins or weaves, is not applicable. Clip-in extensions offer a distinct advantage in this regard – they are designed for temporary, flexible use.

Your clients can easily attach and remove these extensions as they wish, typically on a daily basis or for special occasions. This means there is no specific schedule for moving them up. The frequency of use and how often they choose to wear their clip-ins entirely depends on their personal preference and lifestyle needs.

As a professional stylist, it's important to educate your clients on proper care and storage of their clip-in extensions to maintain their quality and longevity. This includes brushing them gently, washing them periodically, and storing them properly when not in use. This way, your clients can enjoy the versatility and convenience of their clip-in extensions without the need for regular salon appointments for maintenance.

Absolutely, clip-in hair extensions can be cut and customized to blend seamlessly with your client's natural hair.

As a professional stylist, this is where your expertise becomes invaluable!

Here are some key points to consider when cutting clip-in extensions:

  1. Initial Consultation: Before cutting, assess your client's hair length, texture, and desired style. This helps determine how much to trim and what cutting technique to use.
  2. Cutting Technique: Use professional hairdressing scissors or a razor for precision. It's crucial to cut the extensions while they're clipped into the hair, as this provides a better idea of the final look and ensures a natural blend with the client's own hair.
  3. Layering and Blending: To achieve a natural look, create soft layered ends. This helps the extensions blend more naturally and move in sync with the natural hair.
  4. Cautious Trimming: Always trim less initially, then gradually cut more if needed. Remember, extensions won’t grow back, so it’s important to cut conservatively.
  5. Styling After Cutting: Once the extensions are cut, style them to ensure the cut has blended perfectly with the natural hair.
  6. Client Education: Teach your clients where to clip in the extensions correctly if they've been customized to a specific cut or style.

As a stylist, your expertise in cutting and styling clip in extensions is a valuable service for your clients. See our cutting tutorials for more information.

Yes, you can color clip-in hair extensions, but do so cautiously.

As a professional stylist, you have the skill and expertise to customize these extensions to perfectly match your client's hair color. Here are some important points to consider when coloring clip-in extensions:

  1. Strand Test: Always conduct a strand test first. This involves coloring a small section of the extension to observe how the hair takes on the color. This step is crucial to avoid unwanted results.
  2. Color Choice: It's safer to dye the extensions a darker shade rather than lightening them. Bleaching or using high-lift dyes can be more damaging and unpredictable. It is NOT recommended and we advise against lifting color.
  3. Gentle Process: Use professional-grade hair color and developers. The process should be gentle to maintain the integrity of the extensions.
  4. Avoid Over-Processing: Extensions don’t receive natural oils from the scalp like our own hair, making them more susceptible to dryness and damage. Be careful not to over-process them.
  5. Aftercare: After coloring, it’s important to condition the extensions thoroughly. Use a salon-quality conditioner (we recommend Amika Kure) and comb it into the hair to rehydrate them and minimize moisture loss.
  6. Expert Application: As a professional stylist, your expertise in hair coloring is crucial for achieving a natural and desired result while maintaining the health of the extensions.

Remember, while coloring extensions can be a great way to achieve a custom look, it requires a professional touch to ensure the best results and to preserve the quality of the hair.

Removing clip-in hair extensions is a straightforward and gentle process. Here’s a simple guide you can follow:

  1. Locate the Clips: Start by identifying where each clip is attached.
  2. Gently Lift the Clips: Use your fingers to carefully lift the clips from the roots and gently snap them open.
  3. Slide the Clips Out: Once a row of clips have been opened, slide the piece out of the hair. If a clip feels snagged, don’t force it - check to see if it’s tangled before proceeding.
  4. Repeat for Each Section: Continue this process for each clip-in extension until all have been successfully removed.
  5. Brush and Store Extensions: After removal, brush each extension to remove any tangles and ensure they are smooth. Storing them flat and in a dry place will help maintain their quality and shape.
  6. Inspect the Client’s Hair and Scalp: After removing all the extensions, do a quick check of your client's scalp and hair to ensure there's no discomfort or hair stress.
  7. Post-removal Care Advice: Advise your client on any aftercare tips for their natural hair as needed.

As a professional stylist, it's important to emphasize to your clients the ease of removing clip-in extensions and to instruct them on how to do it correctly if they choose to remove them at home. This ensures the health and integrity of their natural hair and the longevity of the extensions.

CARE AND LIFESTYLE

Absolutely, clip-in hair extensions can be washed and styled just like normal hair. This is one of the reasons they're so popular among professional stylists and their clients.

Here are some guidelines to share with your clients for maintaining their clip-in extensions:

  1. Washing: Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo (we recommend Amika Kure) with lukewarm water. Apply the shampoo gently, stroking the extension downwards from the clip to the ends to avoid tangling.
  2. Conditioning: After shampooing, apply a nourishing conditioner (we recommend Amika Kure). Leave it on for a few minutes before rinsing thoroughly. Again, be gentle and avoid rigorous rubbing.
  3. Drying: Pat the extensions with a towel to remove excess water. It’s recommended to lay them flat to air dry them if possible. If using a blow dryer, use a low heat setting to prevent heat damage.
  4. Brushing: Use a wide-tooth comb or a soft nylon bristle brush to detangle the extensions. Start from the ends and gradually work your way up to the clips.
  5. Heat Styling: Just like natural hair, these extensions can be styled using heat tools like curling irons, flat irons, and blow dryers. However, advise your clients to use a heat protectant spray or gloss (we recommend Amika Glass Action) and to avoid high heat settings to preserve the hair’s quality.
  6. Regular Maintenance: Remind your clients to brush their extensions before and after use and to store them properly when not in use. This helps maintain their lifespan and appearance.
  7. Avoid Over-washing: Clip-in extensions don't receive natural oils from the scalp like natural hair, so they don’t need to be washed very often. Washing them only when necessary will help preserve their integrity. We recommended washing them every 7 to 10 uses for best results.

By following these care instructions, your clients can enjoy their clip-in extensions for a long time, styling them in various ways to complement their looks while maintaining the health and beauty of the extensions.

For the best maintenance of your clip-in hair extensions, we often suggest the Amika Kure line – we're not sponsored by them, but their products really stand out for their effectiveness on all types of human hair extensions.

Many typical problems with extensions are often alleviated by using this product line. The Amika styling collection includes essentials like Glass Action, a heat protectant, which is vital for protecting the hair from potential heat styling damage.

By incorporating these products into the care routine, not only is the hair's quality preserved, but it also remains in top condition for extended use. This approach helps your clients protect their investment and enjoy their beautiful extensions for as long as possible.

Sleeping with clip-ins can lead to tangling and unnecessary strain on both the extensions and the natural hair.

For the longevity of the extensions and the health of the natural hair, it's best to remove them before bed.

Swimming with clip-in hair extensions is generally not advisable. Water activities, especially in chlorinated pools or saltwater, can cause significant damage to the extensions and create tangles in both the extensions and your natural hair.

Here's a breakdown of the potential issues:

  1. Chlorine and Saltwater Damage: Chlorine in pools and salt in seawater can dry out and weaken the hair fibers, leading to breakage and color fading.
  2. Tangling and Matting: Moving around in the water can cause the hair to tangle and mat, which can be difficult to untangle without causing damage.
  3. Weakening of Clip Attachment: Prolonged exposure to water can weaken the stitching that attaches the clips to the weft, potentially leading to them coming off.
  4. Weight and Discomfort: When wet, extensions become heavier, which can pull on your natural hair and be uncomfortable.

The best practice is to remove clip-in extensions before swimming to avoid these issues and prolong the life of the extensions.

Certainly! Your clients can engage in sports or workouts while wearing clip-in hair extensions, but there are a few considerations and tips to keep in mind to ensure both comfort and the longevity of the extensions:

  1. Secure Hairstyle: Advise your clients to wear their hair in a secure, low-impact style during physical activities. A low ponytail, braid, or bun can help keep the extensions in place and prevent tangling.
  2. Minimize Sweat Exposure: Excessive sweat can affect hair quality. It's beneficial to use a headband or a sweat-wicking cap to help absorb sweat and keep it away from the hair.
  3. Gentle on Scalp: Encourage them to avoid high-tension hairstyles that could pull on the extensions and their natural hair, leading to discomfort or potential damage.
  4. Post-Workout Care: After a workout, it's important to gently brush the extensions and let them air dry if they've become damp with sweat. If the extensions are excessively sweaty, a gentle wash may be necessary.
  5. Regular Maintenance: Regular washing and conditioning of the extensions, especially if your clients are frequently active, will help maintain the hair's quality and appearance.
  6. Consider Removal for Intense Activities: For very intense or contact sports, it might be safer and more comfortable to remove the extensions to prevent any potential damage.

Remember, while clip-in hair extensions offer versatility and can usually withstand regular physical activities, proper care and handling are key to maintaining their look and integrity over time.
