Volym eller längd – vad behöver ditt hår? - Fairwithhair

“I want long hair” is the wish we hear most often. But long hair without fullness looks thin, which is why many people end up 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 “wispy”
  • Your hair lies flat against your head by mid-morning
  • You've cut off length because your hair felt thin

You need length if…

  • Your hair is even and full but doesn't reach where you'd like
  • You're growing out a short style
  • You want to wear styles that need length

Most often you need both

A typical set-up is length at the bottom and extra volume strands higher up, so the hair looks thick all the way down. That's also why the amount of hair is often more than people imagine – which affects the price.

One more thing: the cut

Hair extensions that aren't cut in always look like hair extensions. We always finish by cutting the extensions into your own hair – that's the step that means no one can tell the difference.
