The first thing is to identify the fact that women are getting hair extensions that are put on with glue. There are numerous of hair extension systems that if applied correctly could actually grow your natural hair instead of making one bald. It is imperative to understand the importance of maintaining your natural hair under your hair extensions or wigs. Here are tips to prevent hair damage and hair loss from and during weave-wearing:

Go to a stylist, please do not attempt the least expensive route and weave your own hair — it will cost you in the end. Leave this job to the experts

Make sure that your stylist does not braid your hair too tight, especially around your edges. If braids are done properly it will  actually help your hair to grow

Invest in quality hair, preferably luxury Indian hair extensions that are very light in weight. Most cheap and inexpensive hair can be too heavy and pull out your natural hair

Wash your hair and condition it. Use scalp treatments to keep the hair follicles open and healthy.Wash at least once a week. Always remember to use hair product with great health benefits — free of sulfates, parabens and sodium chloride, which are all  harsh chemicals that strip the hair of its natural moisture

Maintain your hair extensions; after having your hair extensions in for 3 weeks, return to your stylist for maintenance and upkeep

There is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing a lace front or a full lace wig, if applied correctly. A lot of people that are applying these lace wigs are not knowledgeable in the nonsurgical hair replacement industry. Lace wigs get their name in the cosmetic world while there are people that experience hair loss due to medical conditions, like alopecia, and call them a cranial prosthesis unit, which is where the fashion trend of lace wigs started from. Some people wear the lace wigs and forget all about their natural hair. Here are tips to prevent a Naomi Campbell situation due to excessive use of full lace wigs:

Use a scalp protectant around the perimeters of the hairline where the glue will be placed

Don’t shave your edges to wear a lace wig unless you are undergoing medical related hair loss. If your edges are thick and healthy do not shave your edges to temporarily wear a wig for fashion. Most people literally shave their edges to wear a lace wig because if the lace wig is applied to a bald surface, the application will last from 4-6 weeks — sometimes even longer. If you have full edges and make the decision to wear a wig, then glue will be placed at the edges of the hairline, which could lead to balding around the edges

Don’t put any glue directly on your hair edges, but create a hairline half of an inch above your natural line to prevent damages to your edges

    It’s awesome this article talked about how important is to take good care and constantly maintain your hair extensions. I’ve never worn hair that wasn’t my own, but after doing some research, I found out it’s not a big deal as I thought. Thanks for helping me understand more about hair extensions and how versatile they can be.
