Clip In Fringe – Fringe Extensions – Long

Fringes

Fringe extensions are a cool and chic way to change your look without the long commitment to a fringe and the associated long months of growing it out when you decide you don't want a fringe after all. Fringes flatter most people and can be worn long or short, combed to the side or straight down, feathery or club cut and heavy. But they can be a pain to disguise when you don't want one anymore, they can be hot and sticky in summer, or they just don't suit some headwear. Extensions are the perfect compromise.

Invisible and totally believable when correctly fitted, a clip in fringe is a versatile addition to any hair wardrobe and a must-have for anyone who likes to change their look in the blink of an eye. Many celebrities opt for a clip in fringe for red carpet events or fashion galas, causing quite a stir when they appear with a drastic and apparently permanent change of hairstyle. It's fun to shock and surprise people, and fringe extensions provide the ideal way to make your hair something of a statement.

For a totally natural look, colour matching is important. If you can't find the exact shade of extension that you need, try spraying both your natural hair and the extension with a colour tint spray after you've fitted it. It will help blend the two colours together. The alternative is to go for a totally different colour, making the contrast between the two a deliberate statement. Fun fashion colours such as blue or red can be popular, but natural hair colours that clash are fashionable too, such as pairing brown with blonde or black with brown.

As well as the fun and fashionable side of fringe extensions, there is also the therapeutic aspect that can help sufferers to cope with certain medical conditions that cause hair loss or thinning, or a receding hairline. Many people feel self conscious about the condition of their hair when it's affected by illness, and in those circumstances a clip in fringe is a quick and fun way to restore confidence.
