Discover the various types of hair extension methods and learn about the best type of hair extension for thin hair:
1. Tape in hair extensions are a relatively newer technique and the BEST for women with thin or fine hair. The tape extensions are bonded to your natural hair with tape (bonded like sandwiches in between your own hair) and are 1.5” wide wefts applied row by row. The tape wefts and thin and lightweight, leaving no damage. The benefit of this type of hair extension for thin hair is that the single method application can be used as a solution. Instead of bonding two tape weft hair extensions together like you would for a normal tape application, one tape weft extension is placed on the hair and the other side is sealed with a single sided piece of tape. (Watch the video here) This is the best solution for thinning hair. It provides long wear without any damage to thin hair. Tape in extensions require no tools or chemicals. Glam Seamless Hair does not even need added glue or a flat iron as other companies do. That is what damages your hair in the long run.

2. Clip in hair extensions are temporary extensions with the option to take them out as often as you prefer. With this type of extension, it will not hold well in thin hair due to the weight of the clips. The clip in hair extensions will not hold with thin hair as the weight of each weft is really heavy and they tend to slide out, especially if you want them for every day wear! Further damage could be caused by the clips putting strain on the thin hair causing bald spots. If you want full hair every day, clips are not the best option.
3. Fusion hair extensions have keratin bonding on the ends and ultrasonic waves soften the keratin to bond during application. These types of hair extensions are rather costly and the installation process is lengthy. The removal process is tricky and can pull out more hair in the long run. The fusion method pulls out more hair and does not hold well one fine hair! Not a good option for women with thin hair.
4. Micro links hair extensions are applied strand by strand to your hair with a special tool to attach each hair extension to your natural hair. The links are similar to a screw which can damage your hair shaft when clamped together. The weight of each strand tugs and pulls and will ruin your hair in the long run.
Braided Weft hair extensions are sewn into your natural hair which is braided to cover your whole head and the wefts of hair are sewn in to the braided rows. Those with thin hair usually do not have enough hair to make the small braid to hold the hair extension.
It is important to consider how much weight, stress and tension is placed on your natural hair by the hair extensions. For fine or thin hair, you should look for the lightest density for hair extensions.
It may seem that strand by strand application would be the lightest weight in applying extensions to your hair. But you must consider the potential damage to your hair that can be caused by bonding individual pieces of hair to natural thin hair.
With tape in hair extensions, the extensions are light weight and require no glue, tools or fusion type of bond to stay in your hair. With the single method application, the extension is bonded with a piece of tape rather than sandwiching two extensions together. By doing so, the weight is reduced by half which is best for causing the least amount of strain and possible damage to thin hair.

There are also micro tape in hair extensions that are very small pieces of individual hair that can be taped in hair to add volume and highlights without changing the natural structure of your hair, minimizing any risk of damage to your hair.
