Seamless Hair Extensions Explained

Seamless Hair Extensions

First things first, what are seamless hair extensions? Seamless Hair Extensions, also known as ‘Skin Weft Extensions’ are made using a silicone backing at the top of the piece rather than wefts sewn to a piece of lace or fabric. Clips are then hand sewn to the silicone backing. They are designed for people who want to a lighter and thinner clip in extension method.

Many questions are asked about this new product, so we answer the following:

Can I wash Seamless Hair Extensions?

To put it simply, yes. You can wash Seamless Hair Extensions like any other clip in extension, however it is advised to avoid letting the silicone weft be submerged in water for no longer than 20 minutes. Water may seep into the cavity and not dry as well as fabric clip in hair extensions. Like any other Hair Extension, it is always recommended to use a sulphate free shampoo and conditioner to ensure the hair does not dry out.

Is there less hair per piece of Seamless Hair Extension?

Seamless hair extensions are designed to look thick and undetectable. Similar to Tape In Extensions, there are no rows of wefts sewn to a piece of lace like conventional Wefted Clip In Hair Extensions. Due to the nature of the silicone backing, you may require more pieces to achieve your desired thickness and length.

Can I dye my Seamless Hair Extensions?

If your seamless hair extensions are made from 100% Human Remy Hair, then yes you can! However it is advised to avoid putting any product where the silicone backing is, as this may damage the extension.

Like most human hair extensions, Seamless Hair Extensions can not be bleached or lightened. Many hair extensions tend to go through a long dying process, therefore we do not recommend bleaching or lifting your extensions as this may cause damage to the hair.

When toning or dying your set, always make sure you test your product on one single piece to ensure it gives the results you want!

Like any 100% Human Hair Extension, you can safely style your Seamless Hair Extensions on a lower heat setting. We would suggest styling your hair with a ceramic heating tool which does not exceed 130 Degrees Celsius. Always remember to use a quality heat protecting spray before styling!

Finally, how long do seamless hair extensions last? These extensions last 6 to 8 weeks on average. But with proper care and by following the tips given above, you can wear them for 12 weeks.
