Welcome to Bombshell Wigs Galore, Today, we're chatting about the world of sew-in hair extensions, a popular and versatile method to achieve the hair of your dreams.
What is a Sew-In?
A sew-in is a method of installing hair extensions where your natural hair is braided down into a secure base. The hair extensions, or wefts, are then sewn onto the braids using a needle and thread. This technique provides a long-lasting and natural-looking result when done correctly.
The Sew-In Process at Bombshell Wigs Galore
Braiding the Hair: The first step is to braid your natural hair. Our experienced stylists braid the hair firmly but not too tightly to avoid unnecessary tension and discomfort. Proper braiding ensures a stable foundation for the extensions.
Optional Netting: A net may be used over the braids to distribute the weight of the extensions more evenly. This reduces tension on your natural hair and can help the sew-in last longer. While optional, many of our clients prefer this step for added protection and longevity.
Sewing the Wefts: The hair weft bundles are then sewn onto the braids (or net) using either nylon or cotton thread. The choice of thread depends on your hair type and the desired result. Our stylists ensure each stitch is secure, providing a seamless and natural look.
Types of Sew-Ins
At Bombshell Wigs Galore, we offer several types of sew-ins to suit your style and needs:
Full Sew-In: No natural hair is left out, making this perfect for styles like bangs. This option provides a complete transformation without blending your natural hair with the extensions.
Traditional Sew-In with Leave Out: This style involves leaving out a section of your natural hair to blend with the extensions. You can choose minimal leave out or have hair left out around the entire perimeter for a natural, pull-back look.
Vixen Sew-In: This technique allows for multiple partings, offering versatile styling options. It’s ideal for those who want the flexibility to change their hairstyle frequently.
Lace Sew-In: For those seeking a natural look with no leave out, lace sew-ins are the way to go. Options include closures, frontals, and 360 frontals, providing a seamless blend with your natural hairline and versatile styling options.
Benefits of Sew-Ins
Sew-ins can be an excellent protective style when installed correctly. The tension of the braids, the type of thread used, and the sewing technique all play a crucial role in ensuring a protective and long-lasting installation. Here at Bombshell Wigs Galore, we pride ourselves on providing tension-free, long-lasting sew-ins.
