Step 1: Practice Opening and Closing the Clips
|
|
|
With
the clip side of the piece facing you, put both thumbs on each side of
the clip and the index fingers at the front sides. Snap the clip open
by applying pressure toward yourself with the index fingers. Similarly,
close the clip by applying pressure away from yourself with the thumbs. |
|
|
Step 2: Separating the Hair
|
|
|
Using
a tail comb or your index fingers, practice parting the hair
horizontally from one side of the head to the other. Starting about an
inch above the temple on one side, part the hair around the back of the
head to the other temple. |
|
|
Step 3: Clip Up the Hair Above the Part
|
|
|
Lift up all the hair above the part and clip it out of the way using the enclosed duck-bill clip(s). |
|
|
Step 4: Prepare the Piece
|
|
|
Open all the clips on the piece. |
|
|
Step 5: Placement of the First Clip
|
|
|
The
top middle clip should be attached first by placing it at the middle of
the back of the head just below the part so that the top of the weft is
even with the part when attached. Moving the clip downward, catch your
hair in the clip and snap it shut. |
|
|
Step 6: Placement of the Second Clip
|
|
|
The
right clip is next. Holding the middle clip in place with your left
hand, use your right hand to move the right edge of the weft as far as
it will go around your head. As above, place the clip on your hair just
below the part, and moving the clip downward, catch your hair in the
clip and snap it shut. |
|
|
Step 7: Placement of the Third Clip
|
|
|
Finally,
to attach the left clip, hold the middle clip in place with your right
hand, and use your left hand to move the left edge of the weft as far
as it will go around your head. As in the previous two steps, place the
clip on your hair just below the part, and moving the clip downward,
catch your hair in the clip and snap it shut. |
|
|
Step 8: Check for Gaps
|
|
|
Now
that the three top clips are attached, run your fingers along the top
weft to make sure it lies flat against your head along the entire
width. If there are any gaps, correct this by repositioning it so that
the weft lies flat. |
|
|
Step 9: Placement of the Fourth Clip
|
|
|
Similar
to attaching the top row of clips, start with the middle clip when
attaching the bottom row. The bottom middle clip should be placed first
by pulling down on the piece and placing the clip at the middle of the
head, making sure the clip goes all the way to the scalp. The vertical
stretch lace allows the piece to be pulled taut so that no gaps occur
between the top and bottom of the piece. |
|
|
Step 10: Placement of the Fifth Clip
|
|
|
The
right bottom clip is next. As in the previous step, attach the right
bottom clip making sure the clip goes all the way to the scalp. |
|
|
Step 11: Placement of the Sixth Clip
|
|
|
The
left bottom clip is next. As in the previous step, attach the left
bottom clip making sure the clip goes all the way to the scalp. |
|
|
Step 12: Check for Gaps
|
|
|
Now
that the three bottom clips are attached, run your fingers along the
bottom weft to make sure it lies flat against your head along the
entire width. Also, at this time, check to make sure that the piece
lies flat from top to bottom. If there are any gaps, correct this by
snapping the clip open, lifting it off your hair and repositioning it
so that the piece lies flat in all directions. |
|
|
Step 13: Finishing the Look
|
|
|
Release all the hair that was clipped out of the way in Step 3 and blend it in.
To
remove either piece, snap open all the clips and gently lift up and
away from your hair. Never try to remove a weft without first opening
all the clips. Pulling or tugging to remove a weft can result in damage
to your own hair. |
|
|
Step 1: Separating the Hair
|
|
|
The
larger piece in the Extension System has been designed to use by
itself. However, if you want to have even longer hair, the smaller
bi-level piece can be used in conjunction with the larger piece.
NOTE: When using both pieces, the smaller one should be attached first.
Using
a tail comb or your index fingers, practice parting the hair
horizontally from one side of the head to the other. Starting below the
occipital bone (the curved, trapezoidal compound bone that forms the
lower posterior part of the skull), and using a tail comb or your index
fingers, make a part starting just behind your ear, going from ear to
ear. |
|
|
Step 2: Clip Up the Hair Above the Part
|
|
|
Lift up all the hair above the part and clip it out of the way. |
|
|
Step 3: Prepare the Piece
|
|
|
Open all the clips on the piece. |
|
|
Step 4: Placement of the First Clip
|
|
|
The
top middle clip should be attached first by putting it at the middle of
the nape area. Place the clip on your hair just below the part so that
the top of the weft is even with the part. Moving the clip downward,
catch your hair in the clip and snap it shut. |
|
|
Step 5: Placement of the Second Clip
|
|
|
The
right clip is next. Holding the middle clip in place with your left
hand, use your right hand to move the right edge of the weft as far as
it will go around your head. Pull the weft taut and place the vertical
side clip on your scalp, and moving the clip slightly towards the
center, catch your hair in the clip and snap it shut. You may need to
angle this weft up slightly on your head in order to make it taut. |
|
|
Step 6: Placement of the Third Clip
|
|
|
To
attach the left clip, hold the middle clip in place with your right
hand, and use your left hand to move the left edge of the weft as far
as it will go around your head. As in the previous step, pull the weft
taut and place the vertical side clip on your scalp, and moving the
clip slightly towards the center, catch your hair in the clip and snap
it shut. You may need to angle this weft up slightly on your head in
order to make it taut. |
|
|
Step 7: Check for Gaps
|
|
|
Now
that the three top clips are attached, run your fingers along the top
weft to make sure it lies flat against your head along the entire
width. If there are any gaps, correct this by snapping the clip open,
lifting it off your hair and repositioning it so that the weft lies
flat. |
|
|
Step 8: Placement of the Fourth Clip
|
|
|
Located
in the center of the bottom weft, this clip acts as an anchor for the
piece. The bottom clip should be placed by pulling down on the piece
and placing the clip near the end of your hairline at the nape,
catching your hair in the clip and snapping it shut. |
|
|
Step 9: Finishing the Smaller Attachment
|
|
|
Release all the hair that was clipped out of the way in Step 2 and blend in with the piece.
To
remove either piece, snap open all the clips and gently lift up and
away from your hair. Never try to remove a weft without first opening
all the clips. Pulling or tugging to remove a weft can result in damage
to your own hair. |
