However, with so many different application methods available, choosing the right one for your hair type and lifestyle can feel overwhelming. At 365HairCo, we’re here to guide you through the most popular hair extension techniques so you can achieve your dream look with confidence.

1. Clip-In Hair Extensions
If you’re looking for a quick and non-committal way to add length and volume to your hair, clip-in extensions are a great option. These extensions come in wefts with small, secure clips that easily attach to your natural hair.

✔ Best For: Beginners, special occasions, and temporary transformations  
✔ Lifespan: 6–12 months with proper care  
✔ Maintenance: Minimal; can be removed and reapplied in minutes  

📌 Shop our premium Clip-In Hair Extensions for an effortless glam look.

2. Tape-In Hair Extensions
For those wanting a more natural and seamless blend, tape-in extensions are a semi-permanent option. These extensions are pre-taped and sandwiched between sections of your natural hair, laying flat against the scalp for a discreet finish.

✔ Best For: Fine to medium hair types, low-maintenance users  
✔ Lifespan: 6–8 weeks before needing reapplication  
✔ Maintenance: Requires professional reinstallation every few weeks  

📌 Try our Skin Weft Tape-In Extensions for a lightweight and undetectable look.

3. Sew-In (Weave) Hair Extensions
A favorite among those with thick, textured hair, sew-in extensions involve braiding natural hair into cornrows and sewing the extensions onto the braids. This method offers long-lasting results and extra security.

✔ Best For: Thick or coarse hair textures  
✔ Lifespan: 6–8 weeks before requiring maintenance  
✔ Maintenance: Needs regular scalp care and professional removal  

📌 Discover our high-quality Double Weft Sew-in Extensions for a flawless, long-lasting style.

4. Micro Link (Beaded) Hair Extensions
Also known as I-tip extensions, this method involves attaching small strands of extensions to your natural hair using tiny silicone-lined beads. This technique does not require heat or glue, reducing the risk of damage.

✔ Best For: Medium to thick hair  
✔ Lifespan: 3–4 months with routine upkeep  
✔ Maintenance: Beads require tightening every few weeks  

5. Keratin Bond (Fusion) Hair Extensions
For the most durable and natural-looking results, keratin bond extensions are a top choice. These extensions are bonded to your natural hair using a keratin adhesive and heat, ensuring a long-lasting and natural movement.

✔ Best For: Medium to thick hair types  
✔ Lifespan: 3–5 months with proper maintenance  
✔ Maintenance: Requires professional application and removal

When selecting a hair extension method, consider your lifestyle, hair type, and maintenance preferences. Whether you need a quick transformation with clip-ins or a long-term solution with fusion extensions, 365HairCo has the perfect option for you.
