It is advised you have a lot of hair extensions, so much that it matches your natural hair density. What this implies is, if your hair is the thick type, then it would take the application of plenty extensions to go with your type of hair. And if your hair is the thin type, you would require less hair extensions. Furthermore, is your hair the short type? If yes, then you will also need a lot of hair extensions.

But this may not be applicable in some case as some people have very unique hair color or could be making the hair extension purchase online and you will by all means need to get the right color for your hair. Hair extensions are not being matched to your hair roots but the ends and most people will need to use 1-3 colors to get the perfect blend of colors. Once the hair colors don’t match, that automatically shows people that you are using extensions. If you are buying the extension online, one way to get a perfect color match for what you are buying is by getting a free color match before paying for extension. Hottie Hair does color matching for thousands of hair colors daily so we ensure that there is a matching hair color for everyone. Having the right color(s) is crucial when it comes to using hair extensions. For instance, we advise you go for the lightest shade of blonde #60 and change the color to match with your natural hair. For those with unique hair color, this is one of the best ways to make your hair extensions look real. Changing the color of your hair extensions is very simple, just ensure that the shampoo you use is color safe.
