What Hair Extensions Are Best For Thin Hair?

It is important to note that there is a difference between thin hair and hair that is currently in the process of falling and thinning. If you have already experienced some hair thinning over time and you are now looking for options to make your thin hair look thicker and/or longer we have some great options for you.

Keratin Extensions or Fusion Extensions are ideal for thin hair because the keratin bond is fused onto small sections of hair so they are lighter on the hair and do not weigh down the delicate strands. Tape-In Extensions are also a great option for thin hair as this option is light on the natural hair and when placed well will disguise very well. Halo Extensions are perfect for thin hair. And ponytail extensions are a great option for thin hair.

What Hair Extensions are Bad For Thin Hair?

We advise against using clip-in extensions on thin hair for a number of reasons. Mainly because the thin hair is unable to hold the weight of the clips that are used to clip the extensions on. Oftentimes, additional issues such as traction alopecia can develop because the clips are attached so tightly and pull on the roots. 

Microlink Extensions may be a good option for thin hair however only limited volume can be added because only limited hair will be available to add the extensions without them showing.
