Real Hair Extensions vs Synthetic Hair Extensions

There are a lot of different types of hair extensions around at the moment and it can be difficult to decide which is best. We’ll be discussing the benefits of both real hair, and synthetic hair to help you discover which type is the best fit for you.

Benefits Of Real Hair Extensions

 

The main benefit of using real hair is that they will always look more natural than synthetic hair. With these extensions, you’ll be able to treat and style your look the same way you would your natural hair. This means there’s no need to worry about using the wrong techniques or products! 

As well as being about to style them with ease, human hair ones will be sure to last longer than their synthetic counterparts. Real halo hair extensions can last around 6-18 months, whereas synthetic extensions will last 2-3 months. Of course, this is only possible if both types of extensions are properly cared for.

 

Benefits Of Synthetic Hair

 

Synthetic extensions are easy to maintain as they come with a style and curl pattern already applied to them. When it comes to restyling your synthetic extensions, all you need to do is wet them with cold water, give them a ruffle, and they’ll go back to their original state. Simple!

When you colour synthetic hair, the results will last for longer as their fibres hold the dye better than real hair does. If you purchase coloured synthetic hair extensions, you don’t have to worry about them fading in a hurry. The cost of synthetic hair is also much lower than that of real extensions. This means you could buy 2-3 different synthetic variants instead of just one made from real hair.

 

Our Opinion

 

In our opinion, we prefer real hair extensions and will always opt for them. Flip-In customers always receive the best quality products and we don’t mess around when it comes to extensions! We absolutely love real hair extensions, how could we not? It’s what we do best! 

All the other benefits aside, you’ll always want your extension choice to look as natural as possible and that is only achievable with human hair. They will feel and look just like your natural hair, just a little bit better. If we’ve convinced you, try out our very own Flip-In Original or for a hint of colour try out Flip-In Flash
