Never have I ever cut my hair short and instantly regretted it. Cue 90% of us nodding while sipping our coffees.
Ah, the impulsive chop—it happens to the best of us. One moment you’re “so over” your long locks, and the next, you’re longing for them back. Sadly, hair doesn’t grow overnight, but here’s the secret: you don’t need to wait 8–12 months to get your dream hair back. Extensions to the rescue!
Whether you’re missing your long hair or just looking to spice things up, hair extensions are the ultimate quick fix.
And lucky for you, Newtimes Hair offers premium 100% human hair extensions that blend seamlessly with your natural hair, giving you all the length and volume you’ve been craving. Let’s get into our top tips to make extensions work like magic for short hair.
How Long Does Your Hair Need to Be for Extensions?
Let’s be real—extensions work best with at least 6–7 inches of hair. If you’re rocking a pixie cut, blending them can be a bit tricky. But with chin-length hair or longer, you’re all set. The best part? With human hair extensions from Newtimes Hair, you’ll achieve a flawless, natural look that’s impossible to tell apart from your own.
Thick Extensions Are Your Best Friend
Short hair layers can be a little sneaky, trying to peek through your extensions. The solution? Go for thicker wefts! Thin extensions just won’t do the trick. A single thick set of Newtimes Hair’s human hair extensions provides the volume and coverage you need to hide those shorter pieces, giving you a smooth and natural finish.
Tame Those Baby Hairs
You know those tiny strands at the nape of your neck? They’re a dead giveaway that you’re wearing extensions. Don’t let them blow your cover! Simply comb out a small section, pin it up, and give it a quick spritz of hairspray. Problem solved.
Pro Tip: This is also the perfect spot to place your first extension. Two birds, one stone.
Add Some Dimension with Color
Natural hair isn’t one flat color, and your extensions shouldn’t be either. Adding highlights, lowlights, or even a balayage effect can take your look to the next level. Newtimes Hair extensions come in a wide variety of shades to blend beautifully with your natural hair. And since they’re 100% human hair, you can even dye them to perfectly match your unique tones.
Want to avoid the damage of bleaching your hair? Mix and match different-colored wefts to create that multi-dimensional look without a single drop of dye. It’s the best of both worlds.
Tease Your Roots for Extra Hold
If your hair is fine or delicate, you might find your clip-ins slipping throughout the day. No worries! Tease your roots a little where the clips will go, and add a spritz of hairspray for extra grip. It creates the perfect base for your extensions to stay secure without tugging.
Clip Them Higher for Better Coverage
Short layers can be sneaky—they love to pop out when you least expect it. To keep them under control, clip your extensions a little higher on your head. Start at the nape of your neck and work your way up, making sure the clips are well-hidden.
Pro Tip: After clipping in your extensions, take a photo of the back of your head (or get a friend to check) to make sure everything’s smooth and concealed.
Frame Your Face with Layers
For a natural blend, shorter face-framing layers are key. Adding these layers to your extensions makes them flow seamlessly with your natural hair. And because Newtimes Hair extensions are made from 100% human hair, they can be cut and styled just like your own.
Not confident with scissors? No problem. A stylist can help shape your extensions for a flawless, professional look.
Curl It Up
Straight hair can be tricky to blend with extensions, especially if your natural hair has shorter layers. Curls, on the other hand, are the ultimate blend hack.
Here’s a pro move: curl your Newtimes Hair extensions before you clip them in. Secure them to a hanger or styling stand, and get curling. Once clipped in, lightly curl your natural hair to match. The result? A seamless, natural transition where no one can tell where your hair ends and the extensions begin.
Pro tip: Store your pre-curled extensions on a hanger after wearing them to keep them in perfect shape for next time.
