Straight clip-ins
If you have straighter hair, there are a few options on the types of extensions you can get for your hair. You can either opt for straighter extensions, and if you don’t have that option, you can use any ordinary extension that you would use for a braid.
This is a great option if you want to put a ponytail and would like to add some length to your hair. It is an easy option and you can get many colors. Make sure you match your hair color to the extension for a more realistic look. You could also use regular hair from braiding, however you would need to tie that into your hair once you have done the ponytail and put it somehow as a bun as that would be ideal.

Hi, Keri, lovely post here!
I must admit that I have never used hair extensions myself before, even though I have been looking into them but they seemed to be so expensive in my town!
I have naturally curly hair that is thin and brittle, and I have been always dreaming of getting longer hair but never managed to due to its weak structure.
Thank you for pointing to the places where I can buy some hair extensions for myself.
I wonder if they are really made from natural hair as it says in the products descriptions?
I appreciate your feedback!
Best Wishes,
Natalie
Hi Natalie,
Yes hair extensions are a good option if you want your hair to appear fuller. However if you have concerns that your hair may be a little weaker, I would suggest using hair and nail supplements as those would help in strengthening it. I think it’s best to start with that first before you purchase the hair clips. In terms of the hair extensions, most of the ones advertised are actually human hair, however sometimes some businesses tend to mix them with synthetic hair. The market has become really competitive nowadays.
Regards,
Keri
