Start by selecting the right color and length of the halo hair extension that matches your natural hair.
You can use a color chart or consult with a professional hairstylist to find the right match.
Wash and condition your hair before installing the halo hair extension.
This will help your natural hair blend seamlessly with the extension.
Brush your hair thoroughly to ensure there are no tangles or knots. It is important to start with smooth and detangled hair to ensure a smooth installation.
Place the halo hair extension over the crown of your head, with the wire sitting comfortably and securely against your scalp. The extension should be sitting about 1-2 inches away from your hairline.
Use a tail comb or your fingers to create a parting line that runs from ear to ear across the back of your head.
Make sure the parting is straight and even.
Lift up a section of your hair and clip it out of the way. This will make it easier to attach the halo hair extension to your hair.
Use a rat tail comb to create a small horizontal parting about 1-2 inches above your ears. Make sure the parting is straight and even.
Take the left side of the halo hair extension and place it over the parting. Make sure the wire is sitting flat against your scalp.
Use a fine-tooth comb to backcomb the hair that is lying over the halo hair extension. This will help to secure the extension in place.
Once you have backcombed the hair, take a small section of hair from the top of the backcombed section and use it to wrap around the wire of the halo hair extension. This will help to conceal the wire and make the extension look more natural.
Secure the wrapped section of hair in place using a bobby pin. Make sure the bobby pin is hidden under the hair.
Repeat steps 7-11 on the right side of your head.
Continue to work your way around the back of your head, creating horizontal partings and attaching the halo hair extension using the same technique.
Once you have attached the halo hair extension all the way around your head, use a fine-tooth comb to blend your natural hair with the extension. This will help to create a seamless look.
Style your hair as desired, using a curling iron, flat iron or hair dryer. You can also trim the halo hair extension to your desired length if it is too long.
Tips and Tricks as halo hair extensions:
If you have fine or thin hair, you can create a tighter backcomb to help secure the halo hair extension in place.
You can also use hairspray or texturizing spray to help hold the backcombed hair in place.
If you have short hair, you may need to clip the sides of your hair back to create a seamless blend with the halo hair extension.
Be sure to adjust the wire of the halo hair extension to fit comfortably and securely against your scalp. You can also bend the wire slightly to fit the shape of your head.
To maintain the quality of your halo hair extension, avoid using excessive heat or styling products on it. Wash it gently with a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner, and store it in a safe and dry place when not in use.
In summary, putting in halo hair extensions is a simple process that can be done in just a few minutes. With the right color and length, as well as proper installation techniques, you can achieve a natural and seamless look with your halo hair extension.
