Ok we all know that we cannot grow long hair instantly. There is something you can do to make it look that way and that is by using a hairpiece. They are not nearly as complicated to use as extensions but then they are not as long lasting either. That can be beneficial if you want to have several hairpieces and vary your look with color and style.
You will find that they are not quite as expensive either. You will be able to attach them yourself so you will not have to pay for the service. They are easy to remove and will not damage your hair if done right.
There are several types of
hair extensions that you can buy that are already to attach then you can buy the loose hair and design your own. If you do this, you need to decide what kind of hair you want to buy. If you just want some loose extensions then straight synthetic hair will work fine. If you want a real full look then you are going to want to use many extensions such as jumbo braid. The best way to learn is to experiment and practice.
One of the most common styles that utilize hairpieces is the ponytail look. For a full natural look you will need a few packages of hair of your choice, and a few elastic bands. Use the type that are cotton covered they are better for your hair, easier to work with and easier to remove.
At this stage, you may find the long hair looks very unnatural, but once you are finished working with it you will be surprised what you can do with it.
If your have
long hair or enough to twist into a bun or make a short ponytail then do this now. Then loop the elastic from the artificial ponytail around the base of the natural ponytail or bun. Make sure the artificial one falls over the real one in order to hide it. Use a few
bobby pins to fasten it if does not feel secure. Then spread the bottom of the long hair out so it looks more natural. If you want you can cut the ends so it does not look so even which gives it a phony look.
To make your artificial piece look natural and give you the illusion of long hair then you want your own hair to be in good shape so it blends it with the shiny soft look of the hairpiece. You can do this by making use of some superior
hair care products. It’s always worth paying a bit more for hair products when they provide superior results. Quite often inferior products can cause their own type of damage.
