What are the best extensions for thin or fine hair?

Reinventing your look with some head-turning new hair extensions is a brilliant New Year resolution idea. Even if you have thin or fine hair, you can still get that million dollar look simply by choosing extensions that work best with your hair type.

Lots of people with hair like yours choose to wear extensions to add more/extra volume, thickness and length by opting for extensions that are lightweight and won’t stress your own hair by adding too much weight.

The application and removal process can also make a difference; the easier these are, the less strain there’ll be on your natural hair. 

The quality of your extensions is a further factor to consider, and why you should only go for the best quality extensions that don’t need any heat to apply and won’t cause any damage.

So, what types of hair extensions could be best for you?

Tape in extensions on thin hair

These are a favourite of girls who want to go easy on their own natural hair. Attached to your hair with adhesive tape close to the root, they’re made with a 4 cm wide weft of hair secured at the top with a sticky tab using a nice and gentle medical glue. This creates a flat, natural finish and an instant, strong bond.

Semi-permanent, lightweight and easy to apply, Tape Extensions are virtually invisible and can last 8 weeks with the right care before they need refitting.

Nano tips on thin hair

Nano tip extensions are another excellent choice when you want to avoid the use of heat or chemicals to guarantee your hair stays in perfect condition.

Small and undetectable, Nano Tips use tiny bonds that attach the extensions to the root of your hair to create the most discreet hair extensions and are great for all hair types.

Nano tips will give you maximum volume and gorgeous length. Because these extensions are lightweight, they don’t add strain to fine hair and their fan tips lie flat to the head, making it easy to conceal them under the natural hair.

Clip-in extensions on thin hair

When you’re looking for a quick and easy to attach hair extension option that needs no long-term bonding, then a clip-in extension could be right for you.

Angel Remy’s Weft Hair can be used to create your own clip in hair extensions (clips sold separately). They are made up of small, clip-like pieces that attach to your own hair and can be applied in minutes. A great option for people with thin hair, they add volume and thickness without adding too much weight or bulk.

They are also very easy to apply and remove. No heat is needed to attach them, making them a great choice for people looking for a non-permanent remedy for fine hair.
