1. The Classic Full Head Hair Extensions
This set is perfect for thickening up hair of the same length rather than adding more length. For anyone who wants to create a lot more length, a double weft or supreme quad weft is perfect, the classic full head set should only be used to thicken up or add maximum of two inches length. It's great for customer with extremely thin hair that are worried about adding too much weight as its our most lightweight full head set.
Our classic full head set contains a total of eight different sized wefts, complete with metal clips pre-attached (no more than 3 clips per weft) – so all you’ll have to do is clip each one of those eight wefts to your hair and you’ll be ready to style and go! The wefts come in different sizes so you can fit them to the shape of your head – providing an even coverage and concealing where your natural hair stops, and where the extensions begin.
Remember Real Hair Extensions come in a variety of weights. The standard weight for a full head of extensions is 120 to 130 grams of hair dependant on length. So, the longer the hair, the more it will weigh. If you have very thin, fine hair, then you may want to consider the shorter length, so the extensions don’t feel heavy on your head and appear more natural too.
2. The Double Weft Hair Extensions
Double Weft Extensions are called this because they feature two wefts securely sewn on a single hair. One of the biggest benefits of getting double weft extensions is that you get double the volume of a classic full head set (single weft), and they also come with same number of clips as a regular single weft set.
Double weft clip in extensions are perfect if you’re looking to extra volume without having to fiddle with double the number of clips - though they can be used to create both length and volume. If you have fine hair, double weft clip ins will certainly give you the volume you want. For those with thicker locks, double weft extensions are a fantastic way to achieve a fuller, more glamourous look.
