00:00Hi everyone and welcome to Hello. We are here today at Vixen and Blush which is one of London's leading
00:07hair extension salons and I'm joined by Sarah McKenna who's the founder and today we're talking all things clip-in
00:13extensions.
00:15Clip-in extensions are a great way to add instant volume to lackluster hair, right? But women often find it
00:21very difficult to know how to apply them so we're going to get the lowdown.
00:25So clip-ins are intended for use at home so most clients would fit it for themselves. When you are
00:31fitting your clip-ins you need to section your hair and then you back brush the section.
00:36That's really important to create a grip that you can clip extensions into. We like to use the dry shampoo
00:42to add extra grip instead of hairspray and then simply the snap grips should really be firmly placed against the
00:50backbrushed area and it should feel very secure.
00:53Most of our clip-in extensions are quite large pieces so they go from ear to ear. This is great
01:00to add volume with fewer pieces instead of lots of little pieces.
01:06So we provide two large pieces at the back and then for the sides you'll have smaller pieces that are
01:11more versatile.
01:11So that would be available in our seamless clip-in range and they're really popular for events, for brides etc.
01:20and they're intended for use maybe twice a week.
01:23So with clip-in extensions they're best when they are properly styled because your own hair is not blended into
01:30the extensions.
01:31We recommend that you clip the extension hair as high up on your head as you can so that they
01:36blend the best way.
01:39When you are styling it's best to use a heat styling tool and to consider the top of your own
01:45hair blending into the extensions.
01:48We also recommend that once it is styled you don't overly use hairspray because this can really make you look
01:54quite sticky.
01:55We prefer to use dry shampoo or even backbrush them slightly on the ends to create more volume and a
02:03much more natural effect.
02:04Thanks.
