Discussed pros and cons of synthetic and human hair (cost, appearance, longevity, comfort), and suggest what’s best for various braid styles at your salon.
How to Choose the Best Hair Extensions for Your Braids
Not all hair is created equal. The quality of hair you use can dramatically affect how your braids look and how long they last. Here’s what to consider:
-
Synthetic Hair: Affordable, great for everyday braiding (e.g. X-Pression 3X Pre-Stretched Braid).
-
Human Hair: Ideal for styles like boho braids and tree braids.
-
Color and Texture: Match your curl pattern and color for a seamless finish.
-
Length: Use longer bundles if you want more curl length with boho styles.
Our stylists can help source premium quality hair or you can bring your own.
