From adding length to your short hair to making your hair look voluminous and thick, there are several reasons many women choose to wear hair extensions. Hair extensions allow you to play around with your appearance and create your favourite hairstyles with ease. Clip-in hair extensions are an especially popular choice, as they don’t require the expertise of a stylist. With a little guidance and practice, you can master the art of creating glamorous and elegant hairstyles with clip-in extensions.
Here are some easy hairstyles that you can try with clip in hair extensions:
1. Natural Wavy
If you’re struggling to choose a shade that matches your natural hair colour, you’re not alone. Many women go through this experience when shopping for extensions. But do you know that blending wefts of two different shades can give you your desired look? This trick helps you create a perfect, natural wavy appearance, especially if you have a darker hair base and lighter colour across your hair.
For example, it’s a good idea to blend dark brown and medium brown clip-in wefts to give your hair a wavy look. The blending of the two shades will also make your hair look natural to the point that nobody will be able to tell if you are wearing extensions.
Be sure to clip in most of the dark shaded wefts near the base of your head and then alternate the wefts from the darker to the lighter colour as you go outwards to the edge of your hair. By blending a shade that matches the base with one that complements your hair’s lighter areas, you are sure to create a stunning impact.
2. Low Ponytail
Not all types of hair extensions allow you to create your favourite hairstyles, but high-quality Remy human hair clip-in extensions are versatile enough to style into different looks. For example, ZALA clip-in hair extensions are made of 100% real human hair that not only look natural but are also easy to style. One of the favourite hairstyles of most women who wear clip-in wefts is a low ponytail.
The best part of getting a low ponytail with clip-in extensions is that you don’t have to wear the wefts beyond your ear level. And, there’s no need to mix the top portion of your hair because you’ll be tying it back.
Many women clip in wefts above their ears, but too many clips in the area can make your hair look bulky and unnatural. You’re always free to experiment with different tricks, but try to avoid wearing the wefts above your ears for a flawless finished look.

3. Low Bun
You can easily create a low bun with your best clip in hair extensions. The trick for a low bun is the same as for the low ponytail. Start by clipping the extensions to your ear level and then shape your hair into a low ponytail. Next, create a bun by twisting the hair in the ponytail around the base and securing with bobby pins or another elastic. A low bun hairstyle with clip-in extensions not only gives your hair a natural look, but the extra length and density of the wefts will make the bun look chic and beautiful.
4. Loose Braids
It’s easy to create loose braids with a clip-in human hair extension and a few tricks. Start by clipping in one-inch-long wefts in the centre of your braid and continue to braid until it is long enough. With this trick, you don’t have to buy longer extensions to get longer braids. Make sure to clip in the extensions into the braid’s rear to hide the clips and pull out the base of the braid to give it a natural transition.
5. High Bun
A high bun is yet another beautiful hairstyle that you can quickly achieve with clip-in extensions. Start by separating your hair until you reach your ear level, then clip in some wefts in the bottom-up position. With this approach, the wefts will level up against your head when you make them into a bun. And when it comes to the wefts beyond your ear level, you can secure them with the clips positioned downward. This trick will allow the extensions to settle properly against your head, so you can easily incorporate them into a high bun and fasten it with an elastic.
