This is a seamless and semi-permanent hair extension technique. Micro rings are attached to rows of the natural hair before the weave is sewn into the rows using a thread and needle. This type of extension is best suited for ladies with thicker hair due to its method of application.
The weave application process is relatively quick, taking up to an hour. The process is safe and secure, but might feel slightly uncomfortable for the first few days. An experienced stylist is ideal for applying this method due to its difficulty and technicality.
Proper aftercare is essential to maintain the look, feel, and longevity of your hair extensions — and to protect your natural hair underneath.
Deep conditioning: Use deep conditioning treatments once or twice a week to keep both your natural hair and the extensions hydrated. This helps maintain softness and prevents dryness or tangling.
Protein treatments: Human hair extensions, just like your own hair, need structural support. A protein-based mask or leave-in product can strengthen the strands, reduce breakage, and restore elasticity.
Washing: Use sulfate-free shampoos and avoid applying conditioner near the attachment points. Focus on the mid-lengths and ends.
Handling: Always detangle hair gently, starting from the ends and working your way up. Use a wide-tooth comb or a soft bristle brush made for extensions.
Drying: Let hair air dry whenever possible, or use a low-heat setting on your dryer. Be careful not to tug at the roots or sew-in area when styling.
With consistent care, your extensions will look natural and last longer — while also keeping your real hair healthy underneath.
To get the best results and avoid potential damage, routine maintenance is a must with sew-in weaves.
1. Refit schedule: Weaves should be professionally removed and refitted every 6 to 8 weeks. This ensures the health of your natural hair and prevents matting or excessive tension on the scalp.
2. Avoid overwearing: The maximum recommended wear time is 3 months. After this, the extensions will have grown down with your natural hair, which can lead to stress on the roots or uneven weight distribution.
3. Reinstall professionally: When it’s time to refit, always work with an experienced stylist to ensure safe removal and proper reinstallation — minimizing breakage and ensuring even, beautiful results
4. Scalp care: During maintenance, your stylist should also assess scalp health, and if needed, recommend clarifying or soothing treatments before reapplication.
Remember — healthy hair starts at the root. Proper maintenance allows you to enjoy the benefits of sew-in extensions without compromising your natural hair health.
