Discover the Magic of Weft Hair Extensions

Weft hair extensions are a type of hair extension that comes in a long curtain of hair attached to a seam, or "weft." These extensions are typically applied by a professional stylist who sews them into your natural hair using a microbead base and threading if it is your preference.

Our weft extensions should be installed using beading and sewing methods only. The pull-through method, which involves using a hook needle through the base of the weft, is not recommended as it can damage the weft, leading to shedding and weakening the overall structure. Beading and sewing provide a secure attachment, evenly distribute weight, and are much gentler on the weft base, preserving the quality and longevity of the extensions. For best results, always have your wefts installed by a professional stylist experienced with these methods.

Yes, weft hair extensions can be styled just like your natural hair. You can curl, straighten, and even dye them to achieve your desired look. Just be sure to use heat-protectant sprays and gentle, sulphate-free hair care products to maintain the quality and lifespan of your extensions.

With proper care, weft hair extensions can last between 3 to 6 months. It's recommended to have maintenance appointments every 6 to 8 weeks to ensure your extensions remain secure and look their best.

Yes, when installed and removed by a professional stylist, weft hair extensions are safe for your hair. They offer a secure attachment method without the need for heat or glue, thus minimising potential damage to your hair. Regular maintenance and a good hair care routine can also help maintain the health of your natural hair while wearing extensions.

Our traditional weft hair extension is our original weft product and is machine made. Alternatively, our hand- tied weft is hand sewn with a much finer track. Traditional wefts can be cut to size, where hand-tied wefts come pre-cut. Superior Hair recommends our hand tied weft for finer hair  as it is discreet and lightweight on the scalp.

No - as long as they are installed by a professional. Many customers report that the wefts actually protect their natural hair and allow for a healthier regrowth period. 

It is highly recommended that you have these extensions installed by a professional. You do run a risk of damaging your hair or the product itself if you attempt to install them yourself. 

The number of packs you need depends on the volume effect you wish to achieve. 

Two to four packs is recommended for a full application. 

Our refund policy allows you to return products that you do not open, so we suggest buying a one more packs than you think you need - just in case. You can return the unused packs for a full refund of the purchase price.

Don’t wash your hair for at least 48-72 hours after installation. After this period, you are free to wash your hair as usual, but follow these tips. 

✓ Never use products that contain parabens, sulphates, or alcohol. 

✓ Only wash your hair 2-3 times per week - the less the better for the life of your extensions.

✓ Only condition the ends and mids of your hair.

✓ Wash your hair in one direction and try to avoid getting knots or snags in your extensions. 

✓ After washing, wait for hair to become completely dry before brushing.

✓ Use a weekly deep conditioning treatment on your mids and ends.

Our hair extensions are made from Remy 100% human hair, so you can style them with hot tools as often as you would style your own hair. It is super important to always use a heat protector on both your extension and your natural hair to prevent damage.

Professional installations of Traditional weft hair extensions should last between 4 and 6 weeks before requiring repositioning given that you have properly cared for your extensions. This may vary due to your natural scalp production of sebum and hair growth rate. 

You can re-use these extensions up to four times if you care for them well. 

An industry professional can remove and reinstall these extensions quickly and easily. Time will be dependent on your method of attachment.

No, this must be done by a salon professional. You are able to learn how to install them using one of our Superior Hair training courses. However, it is still recommended that you do not install extensions on yourself, even if you are fully qualified.

Avoid putting your hair underneath the water when you have hair extensions. Ocean water salt and swimming pool chemicals causes tangles and takes moisture out of your hair, plus it can negatively affect the adhesive bonds of your extensions.

If you do accidentally get your hair extensions wet while swimming, rinse your hair with fresh water as soon as possible, and apply a leave in conditioner or spray in condition to alleviate the impact.
