Hair Extensions FAQ

Q. What are Clip in Hair Extensions?
A. Clip-In Hair Extensions are a quick Do It Yourself hair extension system with no long-term bonding. Easy to attach and can be perfectly matched with your own hair - giving you longer hair, lowlights, highlights, or added volume. All clip–in hair extensions come in one or multiple pieces (wefts) of varying widths. These extensions can be clipped–in or out in minutes and are virtually undetectable.

Q. How are they attached to my own hair?
A. They clip under your own hair by small snap on clips. Once fitted you will not be able to see the clips.

Q: How long do the extensions take to put in?
A: They should take 5 minutes to put in & about 60 seconds to take out!

Q. How long does my own hair need to be to use clip in extensions?
A. As a general rule shoulder length hair or slightly short hair.

Q. How long do the extensions last?
A: The extensions are human hair, so they last as long as you want them to. If you look after your hair it is not uncommon for quality extensions to last up to twelve months.

Q. What type of Hair is used in Extensions?
A. We used 100% Human Hair in our Extensions. Human hair, unlike synthetic hair can be straightened with a flat iron, curled with heat, or chemically treated to perm or dye the hair.

Q. What about clips?
A. We use metal clips with silicon tubing for secure grip. They weight less than
One gram each and just one inch wide so they are very easy to hide and the total weight of clips is a small fraction of hair weight. They have a silicone insert so they will not slip and are extremely secure.

Care and Usage

Q. Can they be straightened, curled or tongued?
A. Yes, simply because it’s real human hair you can straighten and curl the hair.

Q. Can I shampoo them and how often should I do that?
A. Wash them as you would your own. Shampoo and conditioner. Nothing fancy. Please see our Clipin Guide for detailed instructions.

Q. Can I dry the hair with a hair dryer or use tongs?
A. Treat the hair as if it is your own. Use a hair dryer or tongs, even when fitted. But as with your own hair, never use a hairdryer or tongs too hot. You will dry the hair and it will not last as long.

Q. Can I colour the hair?
A. Yes. The hair can be coloured. As a general rule it is easier to darken the hair than to lighten the hair. But blonde hair has been bleached more so more caution must be taken. Always use a good quality hair dye and test a small sample first.

Quality guide

Here at Clipin.com.au we use 100% natural human hair. We don't use any synthetic or animal hair.

Origin
Our main hair is European silky hair and in virgin condition. European hair is excellent for hair extensions.

Quality
We use mainly Remy hair which means that the cuticle layers are all facing the same direction from\root to end and, therefore, do not tangle. This also ensures that the extensions behave exactly like your own hair, blending in superbly with yours and looking super natural!
