Types of Hair Extensions

There are several different types of hair extensions, and each one has its pros and cons. From clip-ins to sew-ins, here are the types of hair extensions you’ll be able to choose from. After this, we’ll look at the cost of each different type so you can compare. 

1. Clip-In Hair Extensions

Clip-in hair extensions are small sections of hair that have tiny clips attached. The clips are secured to and covered by your natural hair. Clip-in extensions are considered temporary. They can easily be installed and removed at home, no professional needed. 

Most people choose to remove them before going to bed to keep them in good condition. If you sleep in clip-in extensions, they can tangle and mat.

Clip-ins are used to boost length and add density and volume in concentrated areas of the head. You can use clip-ins to boost hair volume around the face or create an overall longer look.

Installing clip-ins is easy; just lift a section of your hair out of the way, snap the clip closed at the root of your natural hair, then let your hair cover the clipped section.

2. Tape-In Hair Extensions

Tape-in hair extensions use adhesive to hold the hair extensions in place on the natural hair. Double-sided keratin tape (about 2 inches wide) has small sections of hair attached.

These sections are applied to the root of the natural hair on either side. The natural hair is “sandwiched” between two sections of the adhesive strips.

Each section is slightly overlapped to create a seamless look over the entire head. Tape-ins are known for laying flatter than some other extension types.

But they can also damage the hair in the long run due to the adhesive. They last for about 6 to 8 weeks and should be applied and removed by a professional.

While you have tape-ins, you can’t use regular shampoo, conditioner, or oily hair products. Any of these can cause the adhesive to slip down the hair shaft. Special shampoos are used while tape-ins are installed. 

3. Microlink Hair Extensions wefts

Microlink hair extensions are wefts of hair that are applied with the use of micro silicone beads. After blowing your natural hair out, beads are attached to the natural hair one small section at a time.

Every bead has a small weft, or section of human or synthetic hair, attached to it. A special loop tool is used to pull a small amount of hair through and slide the bead onto it.

A plier tool is then used to squeeze and secure the bead onto each hair section. The result is a small extended section of hair that hangs from every section where a bead is applied. 

Microlink hair extensions can last 6-8 weeks, but should be applied and removed by a professional to avoid damaging and pulling the natural hair. The beads may need to be tightened or slid closer to the roots every 3-4 weeks. 

Hair Extensions Cost by Type

So, how much do the different types of hair extensions cost? The price varies by type, so we’ll list the average cost for each one in order from least to most expensive. 

  • Clip-ins cost about $100 to $500. They can be reapplied over and over and last for about one year, making them the most affordable type of hair extensions. They are best for medium and thick hair, which better supports the clips. You can apply these yourself. 
  • Tape-ins start at about $200 but can be as much as $1,200. They last for 6-10 weeks, but the adhesive used can leave a sticky coating on the hair when removed. They are best for medium and thick hair. You’ll need to have a professional apply these for a seamless look. 
  • Microlinks and wefts start at about $200 but can be as much as $1,500. They last for 2-6 months. They are best for thin or fine hair, but can be used for medium and thick hair. They should be applied by a professional and adjusted every few weeks to keep the micro beads close to the scalp.
