two easy methods.

 

You have a unique hair texture and find it hard to blend in clip-in hair extensions? You’ve come to the right place! Besides giving you the option of getting 3A, 3C & 4A curly/kinky clip-ins, we’ll show you two different techniques of transforming straight hair extensions into the perfect texture to match your natural curls.

 

the curling iron method.

 step 1: choose the right barrel size.

Choose a barrel for your curling iron that is the same size as your own curls and set it to a medium-high position.

 

step 2: clip in the curled extensions.

Apply heat protectant and start curling the clip in hair. We recommend using a hair hanger for better precision. Don’t forget to use some hair spray to fix the curls!

 

step 3: style the hair.

After clipping in the human hair extensions, rake your fingers through the hair or use a detangling brush to separate each wave and make it look natural.

 

the heat-free method.

 

step 1: dampen hair.

Spray your hair and clip in extensions with some water combined with moisturising oil. You want a damp texture, not wet and not completely dry.

 

step 2: twist.

By using the halo method (t-shirt, headband or silk curling ribbon), create a rope and place it on the middle of your head. Twist your hair strand by strand around the rope and fix the ends with hair ties.

 

step 3: keep overnight.

Keep the halo in overnight or for a few hours, until your hair is completely dry. Gently remove the halo rope and use your fingers to separate each curl.

The most comfy product we tried is the Beauty Sleep Curler from Luna August. You'll sleep like a baby with it on and you'll wake up with the perfect curls - guaranteed!

 

Fun fact: the texture of curly hair is actually perfect to hide the clips of the extensions, so the blending process is so much easier!
