DON’T be cheap when buying hair extensions. Especially if the hairstyle allows a
lot of hair movement. Cheap hair tends to
be stiff and unnatural looking compared to
more expensive hair. Plus, expensive extensions can be used quite a number of times.
When cutting the extensions, DON’T cut
them bluntly. You want them to look natural, and hair is naturally imperfect; as in not
all strands of hair are of the same length.
You might want to cut the extensions while
your client is wearing them; this way you
can customize the extensions to fit perfectly
with her real hair.
DON’T use too much hair. The weight of
all those extensions is extremely uncomfortable, especially if your client isn’t used
to wearing hair extensions. Also, the heavy
weight can cause headache and breakage of
hair.
DON’T use hair extensions without knowing anything about them. Synthetic fibers
are especially prone to melting and burning, so make sure they are heat resistant.
Bridezilla would break loose if you accidentally melted the extensions and infused
them with her real hair. (It’s not the kind
of hot fusion extensions your client would
have in mind.)
DON’T clip extensions in right away without ensuring they won’t slide off. Some
people have hair so fine that the clips will
easily slide out. Tease the hair first, and add
some hairspray to create a grip for the clips.
