Hair extensions are a great way to add more length and fullness to your hair instead of waiting for it to grow out over time. Many people may think all hair extensions are created equal, but that is not true. With so many options in terms of installation, length, color, and style, the choices are endless. In this post, we will be covering hand-tied hair extensions and why they have increased so much in popularity. 

What Are Hand-Tied Hair Extensions?

Hand-tied hair extensions refer to the way the extensions are actually installed on the client’s head. Salon 833 features their Signature Beaded Row Extensions, which are the most seamless and least damaging method you will find. The extensions are sewn in wefts designed to match the color and thickness of your hair. Rows of beads are used to create the foundation where the wefts are sewn in. 

Hand-tied extensions also can’t be cut, which means the stylist will need to make sure the wefts are the correct length for you. The entire process can take up to several hours to complete, but the lasting benefits of hand-tied extensions will make it all worth it.

Why Are More People Getting Hand-Tied Hair Extensions?

One benefit of these extensions over other options is the natural appearance they give off. No glue or heat will be used which can allow your hair to move more freely and protect your natural hair from damage. This technique is also really beneficial for people with thinner hair because the hand-tied wefts are typically lighter and thinner than tape-in or clip-in extensions. 

Hand-tied extensions work well with all hairstyles, like straight, wavy, and curly hair. High-quality, 100% human hair is recommended for the best results. The lightness of the extensions will reduce the strain on your natural hair, minimizing pain and discomfort. While all hair extensions require some maintenance, hand-tied extensions typically require fewer maintenance appointments compared to other methods like tape-ins, which will need regular re-taping. Since no adhesive is being used, they are easier to remove as well. 

How Long Can Hand-Tied Hair Extensions Last?

Hand-tied hair extensions can last for several months with the proper care after your appointment, but periodic appointments with your hairstylist may be needed to upkeep your extensions. You can maintain your extensions the same way you would your normal hair.
