GlossaryHair Extensions

artificial or natural hair added to enhance length or volume

Hair extensions, also known as hair weaves or hair additions, are artificial or natural hair integrations that are added to a person's natural hair to enhance its length, volume, or fullness. They can be attached through various methods such as clip-ins, tape-ins, sew-ins, or bonding, and are commonly used for aesthetic purposes, to cover thinning areas, or to experiment with different hairstyles without making permanent changes.
