You must have heard people talking about their “experience” with hair extensions and how they ruined their natural hair. Although some of these stories might be true (and we’ll talk about that later), hair extensions can help grow your hair, and here’s how:
Many believe that that hair extensions are bad for the natural hair.
However, I’m here to bust that myth. Hair extensions aren’t only safe, they are perfect in helping your hair grow.
Is there the a possibility that it can damage the hair? Just as much as there is a possibility the wrong form when exercising will damage your body. So Yes extensions can damage the natural hair, but only when installed or removed incorrectly and it there is no proper maintenance at home.
Wearing extensions will not only force you to be gentle to your natural hair, it will also help with the awkward phase of growing out your pixie or bob cut.
Why Hair Extensions are Great!
-Thanks to the extended strands, an additional barrier is formed that protects your natural hair from unnecessary damage.
-You can hide the growing length and avoid frequent visits to the hairdresser.
-Hair extensions act as great styling on their own. They look gorgeous right out of the box, which means you don’t need additional styling and/or treatment. All you have to do is find a hair extensions professional who’s skilled enough to achieve your hair goals.
Do you have fried ends? If you’re going through a traumatizing event such as over-processing your hair with color, you know how frustrating it is to watch your hair take forever to grow out— the breakage just won’t stop.
Hair extensions will help hide those distressed ends until you get your hair healthy again. Depending on how fried your ends are, make sure your stylist trims a little bit off so they hide even better.
Apart from covering your damaged, fried hair and making it look healthy and amazing, extensions can also give your hair a break from the daily wear and tear caused by heat and environmental stresses.
To experience normal hair growth with extension, you need to take proper care of your hair, and that starts with sticking to a healthy hair washing routine.
The first thing you want to do is find out which products work well with the type of extensions you have.
So with proper at-home care and maintenance, the proper hair extension installation, the right products, and the right method you will be able to see more hair growth.
