Hårförlängning

Volume or length - what does your hair need?

Volym eller längd – vad behöver ditt hår? - Fairwithhair

“I want long hair” is the most common request we hear. But long hair without fullness looks thin, which is why many people are disappointed with a result that is technically exactly what they asked for.

You need volume if…

  • Your ponytail feels thin when you tie your hair up
  • Your ends look sparse and “small”
  • Your hair lies flat against your head already by late morning
  • You have cut off length because your hair felt thin

You need length if…

  • Your hair is even and full but does not reach the length you want
  • You are growing out a short hairstyle
  • You want to be able to create hairstyles that require length

Most often, you need both

A common setup is length at the bottom and extra volume strands higher up, so that the hair looks thick all the way down. This is also why the amount of hair often ends up being greater than expected - which affects the price.

One more thing: the cut

Hair extensions that are not blended in always look like hair extensions. We always finish by cutting the extensions to blend with your own hair - that is the step that makes it impossible to see the difference.
