I would love to hear from veteran hair-weave wearers on this, but lately I have really been experiencing a lot of headaches from my sew in hair weaves.
No matter how loose my braids are I still end up with really unbearable headaches hours after a sew -in.
Two weeks after I permed my real hair I really started craving a weave but I dreaded that sew in. I thought about curly clip ins but I didn't want to pay the price for it .For months I searched desperately for the wig clips, as they are officially called, but with no luck. It is amazing how a simple conversation with a friend brought my search of those wig clips to an end.
The clips come in packs of two and were surprisingly inexpensive. I bought my wet and wavy French Wave hair and late one evening took my time and sewed on my clips neatly to the weave hair wefts. One of the benefits of making your own clip ins is that you can actually cut the wefts to suit the style that you want - whether you want a long the extension long at the back or shorter at the front. You can also double up on wefts by sewing one on to the other before adding your clips, if you require more volume.
The finished product looks professional and if you really take your time it looks store bought . Honestly though, if you can sew a button on a shirt , you can sew on your clip in.
Another benefit of the clip-in hair piece is that you can wash your own hair as often as you like since you only have to take the extension off , wash your hair, and replace it. Best of all it is easier on the scalp than sew ins - once you don't go to sleep with them, in which case they are as comfortable as sleeping with rollers!
Wig clips come in different sizes to satisfy those with thick, medium and fine hair.
