Human Hair Extensions & Hair Extension Pieces

Hair extensions are not something you can just ”put in” like hair dye or other hair accessories and products. While clip-in hair extensions are easier, and there is more leeway for mistakes, human hair extensions that you apply with glue require much more skill and experience. It is always best to ensure that you apply any hair extension with a great deal of care. Hair pieces and extensions that are made from 100 percent real human hair are one of our specialties and we offer a variety of styles, including those made from European human hair as well as many other selections. Hair Trade also offers Remy hair extensions, as well as stick hair shapes and pre-bonded hair extensions that are easier to apply. If you are not yet convinced that our products truly do look and feel like real human hair (because they are!), then you can always opt to purchase a hair extension sample in order to see it with your own eyes.


With everything from hair extensions care products to the most authentic human hair wigs and extensions, Hair Trade has all of your clip-in hair piece and hair extension needs covered! For more information, please click on the questions below to view the answers, or call contact us today.

What are hair extensions?
Hair extensions are a technique of adding hair that is not your own onto your own hair. This is achieved by different methods (Weaving, Braiding, Bonding, Strand by Strand, Latch hook etc. ). They are applied by skilled hair professionals and offer instant methods of changing your appearance. They can be washed, cut and styled to a person’s individual taste

How many packets do I need for full head hair extension?
For hair weft under 18 inches, one packet is enough for full head. Over 18 inches, you should need more the one. If a hairdresser is doing your hair it is advisable to check with them as to how much you require for the hairstyle.
For the pre bonded hair, you should need 150-200 strands.Once again this depends on the style.
For other methods eg strand by strand you will need to consult with your hair dresser.

How long will it take to add extensions to my own hair?
It depends on what you want. If you are looking for just a few temporary extensions before you go out and dazzle at a party, or to enhance your confidence ahead of a mini-break with someone special or someone new, having hair added in need not to be a long process. However, if you are looking for a bigger and more permanent transformation it can take hours.

How can I do hair extensions by myself?
Normally, Weft hair are applied in rows across your head with adhesive or sewed to braids. Some hairdressers prefer shrinkies/shrink-links and micro ring or fusion for pre bonded hair, the hair comes already separated into individual strands ready for application with glue on the tips.

How long do hair extensions usually last until they fall out or you have to take them out?
No extension system should stay in longer than about 3 months (weaves or braided wefts should be redone much sooner than that, every 4-6 weeks) and anyone who tells you otherwise is lying to you. Once your roots grow out and your hair looks MUCH thinner on top than on bottom and you can actually see a line between the thinner and thicker hair. Then you must decide if you want to get more extensions added or cut them out/thin them out

Will my new hair feel heavy?
At first you will definitely notice your extra hair. The extra volume may also initially be an enjoyable novelty - but it is surprising how quickly you get used to having a gloriously full head of hair. Our extensions are so closely matched in look and weight to your real hair that, within hours, they start feeling entirely your own.

How do I look after my extensions?
Your new head of hair will look and feel just like your own. You can wash, dry and style it just as you would your own hair. If you have fake hair added and are totally new to extensions you will be advised to come into the studio for your first wash and aftercare a few days after having your extensions added. This is use full with this type of hair as their are a few minor differences from real hair. After that, you are free to enjoy and experiment with your new hair at home. This process is not necessary with real hair.

Can I use a hairdryer, hot rollers, hot sticks, tongs and other styling equipment?
Yes, you can use all of the above with real hair however with fake hair tongs cannot be used. We will explain and if you would prefer show you exactly how to achieve the styles you want.

Is it safe to leave my hair to dry naturally?
Yes, once again, you can treat your extensions just like your own hair. Wet extensions look just as natural and organic as freshly washed hair.

What is real remy hair?
It Is cut from one persons head & sewn in the same direction hair naturally grows. Unlike other commercial hair The Cuticle is just like nature intended it to be. Texture is silky soft. Cuticle hair is created by careful processing which leaves the cuticle layer of the hair in place. The result is a superior hair item that colors beautifully - it has the highlights and natural shading just like your hair. Please see the picture.
