Hair extensions are a popular way to add length, volume, and colour to your hair. There are many different types of hair extensions available on the market today, making it possible to find the perfect match for your own hair type and style.
Clip-in extension
The most common type of hair extension is the clip-in extension. Clip-in extensions are easy to apply and remove, and they offer a great way to add length and volume to your hair without damaging your natural hair. Clip-in extensions are available in both synthetic and human hair, so you can choose the option that best suits your needs.
Clip-ins are a superb option for a budget, temporary solution, traditionally clip-ins have not used the highest quality Remy hair, and will therefore suffer from erosion of appearance after a short while. However, more and more companies are now offering higher quality Remy hair with clip-in attachments, so watch this space!
Tape-in Hair Extensions
If you’re looking for a more permanent solution, there are also tape-in hair extensions. Tape-in extensions can be purchased from Hair2Love in two styles Slim-Edge Tape-in Extensions and Classic Tape-in Hair Extensions; tapes are applied using a special tape that adheres to your natural hair, making them much more durable than clip-in extensions. Tape-in extensions can last for several weeks, and they’re a great option if you want to add length and volume to your hair without damaging your natural hair.

Sew-in extensions / Weft
Another popular type of hair extension is the sew-in extension, commonly known as Wefts. Sew-in extensions are applied by sewing them into your natural hair, making them a more permanent solution than clip-in or tape-in extensions. However, sew-in extensions can be more difficult to apply and remove, so they’re not always the best option for everyone.

-Can add both length and volume to hair
-Less damaging to natural hair than other types of extensions
-Can be easier to apply and remove than sew-in extensions

Halo hair extensions
There are also halo hair extensions. Halo extensions are applied by attaching them to a headband or other headwear. Halo extensions are a great option for adding length and volume to your hair without damaging your natural hair, and they’re also easy to apply and remove, meaning that these are treated in a similar way to clip-ins…A more temporary solution used for occasions, and typically of a lower grade hair.
Nano hair extensions
Nano hair extensions are a type of extension that has become increasingly popular. Nano hair extensions are applied using a small, handheld device like a clamp. The nano fitting can commonly be a silicon rope, like the Hair2Love Remy Amour range, or a metal wire, like in the Hair2Love Slavic Boutique range.
The bond will be fitted to the hair with a clamped bead, making it possible to apply the extension without heat and potentially damaging your natural hair.
Nano hair extensions are a great option for those who want to add length and volume to their hair without damaging their natural hair. They’re also easy to apply and remove, and they offer a more permanent solution than clip-in or tape-in extensions.
Keratin bond hair extensions
Keratin bond hair extensions are a specialism of Hair2Love, we sell Keratin bond ready flat-tips in our Boutique Slavic range following consultation, and we also fit the Keratin bond method more frequently than any other method in our H2L Studio. This method is becoming increasingly popular due to its many benefits. Keratin bond hair extensions are applied using a small, handheld device similar to an iron, a heated clamp if you will. The clamp melts the keratin bonds that attach the extension to your natural hair, making it possible to apply the extension without damaging your natural hair.
Keratin bond hair extensions are a great option for those who want to add length and volume to their hair without damaging their natural hair. They’re also easy to apply and remove, and they offer a more permanent solution than clip-in or halo extensions.
One of the great things about keratin bond hair extensions is that they can be styled just like your natural hair. You can curl them, straighten them, and style them. Keratin bond hair extensions are also much more comfortable to wear than other types of extensions, and they’re less likely to cause damage to your natural hair.
