HOW TO MAKE/SEW CLIPS ON EXTENSIONS
How Do You Sew Clips on Extensions?
Clips on hair extensions are a great way to add length and volume to your hair without having to commit to a permanent style. Sewing clips onto your extensions will give you a secure hold that will last as long as you need it. Here’s how to do it:
1. Begin by threading a needle with strong thread. You’ll need about 18 inches of thread for each clip.
2. Next, take the weft of hair and fold it in half so that the two cut ends are touching.
This will create a loop at one end of the weft.
3. Insert the needle through the loop and pull it tight so that the weft is secured in place.
4. Now, take the clip and open it up so that you can see the teeth inside.
Slide the teeth of the clip over the top of the weft, making sure that they’re evenly spaced out.
5. Close the clip back up and insert the needle through one of its holes (on either side).
Can You Get Clip in Hair Extensions Sewn In?
Clip in hair extensions are not meant to be sewn in. They are meant to be clipped in and out as needed. However, if you are determined to sew them in, it is possible.
You will need to take apart the weft of the extensions and then sew them onto your natural hair. This is a time-consuming process and is not recommended by most stylists.
How Do You Use Clip on Hair Extensions?
Clip on hair extensions are a great way to add length and volume to your hair. They are easy to use and can be put in and taken out quickly. Here is a step by step guide on how to use clip on hair extensions:
1. Start with clean, dry hair that is free of any oils or product build up. Clip on hair extensions will not stay in place if your hair is dirty or oily.
2. Divide your hair into sections using clips or ponytail holders.
This will make it easier to put the extensions in and will help them stay in place better.
3. Open the clips on the extensions and attach them close to the roots of your hair in the sections you have created. Make sure the clips are secure and snap them shut.
4. Once all the extensions are in place, style your hair as usual.
How Do You Sew on a Clip?
There are a few different ways that you can sew on a clip, but the most common and straightforward method is to simply use a needle and thread. First, you will need to determine where you want to place the clip on the fabric. Once you have done this, take a small length of thread and knot it around the base of the clip.
Then, simply stitch through the fabric and around the clip until it is securely attached. You can also use adhesive glue or iron-on patches to attach clips, but sewing is generally considered to be the most reliable method.

How to Attach Clips to Hair Extensions Without Sewing
If you’re looking for a way to attach clips to your hair extensions without sewing, there are a few options available to you. You can use glue, tape, or even Velcro to keep the clips in place. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to attach clips to hair extensions without sewing:
1. Start by prepping the area where the clip will be attached. Make sure that it is clean and free of any oils or products that could prevent the adhesive from sticking.
2. Next, apply a small amount of adhesive to the back of the clip.
Be careful not to use too much, as this can make it difficult to remove the clip later on.
3. Press the clip firmly onto the hair extension, holding it in place for a few seconds until the adhesive sets.
4. Repeat this process for each clip that you want to attach.
Once all of the clips are in place, allow them to dry for at least an hour before wearing your extensions.
Conclusion
Sewing clips to hair extensions is a great way to add length and volume to your hair. Extensions can be sewn in using a few different methods, but the most popular method is called the single needle sew in. This method involves sewing a small piece of wefted hair onto each individual strand of your own hair.
The wefts can be made from real human hair or synthetic fiber, and they are available in a variety of colors and textures.
To sew clips onto your hair extensions, you will need a needle and thread, a pair of scissors, and some clear nail polish or glue. Start by tying a knot at the end of your thread.
Then, take one clip and thread it through the middle of the weft. Sew the clip onto the weft using small stitches, being careful not to pull too tight or you will damage the weft. Repeat this process for each clip until all of your extensions are attached.
Finally, seal the knots with nail polish or glue to prevent them from coming undone.
