Sewing Thread for Hair Weft

The thread is used with a curved needle to sew hair extension wefts onto braided natural hair. This method is called weaving and gives a flat, secure and very discreet attachment.

The thread is a durable cotton and synthetic blend that's much thicker than ordinary sewing thread. This material makes sure it doesn't cut into your natural hair while standing up to daily wear.

The thread itself isn't harmed if you use a hairdryer, straightener or curling iron on your finished style. Avoid pressing hot tools directly against the thread knots for long periods, though.

The weaving method requires you to braid a stable base, which can be challenging if your hair is very fine and fragile. With extremely thin strands, it may be wise to consider another fitting method to reduce the strain.

One roll of thread is easily enough for a full hair extension and usually for several future reinstallations. Cut a suitable length at a time, about an arm's length, to stop the thread tangling as you sew.

Choose the thread shade closest to your own natural root colour for the most invisible result. This keeps the attachments hidden however you part or put up your hair.

We don't recommend trying to bleach or dye the thread, as the material doesn't take up pigment. It's much simpler and safer to choose the right thread colour from the start.

Once sewn in, the thread needs no extra care beyond your usual careful hair-washing routine. A properly done fitting with this thread usually stays secure for two to three months before it needs a move-up.

As we sell many products, from tape to materials for a toupee, this thread is made specifically for sewing in. It's stronger and gentler than ordinary thread so it can carry the weight of wefts over time.

Store the unused thread roll somewhere dry to keep the material clean and strong. Once the hair is sewn in, we recommend sleeping with your hair in a loose braid to protect both the attachments and your lengths.
