How to choose different weights of hair extensions



If you are looking to buy hair extensions online, one of the first questions you may have is "how do I know what weight hair extensions are right for me? From 50 grams to 200 grams and often even more than that and I believe this makes so many people confused. Your own hair type and your desired length will determine how many grams you will need and this will also differ depending on the extension method.


In this blog, we will explain how to choose the right weight of hair extensions to suit your hair. All hair extensions are made of 100% human hair, you can buy them according to your demond.




Usually the weight is relevant to the thickness. The heavier the weight, the more hair there is in each set of hair extensions. Most companies will measure the weight of their extensions in grams. The higher the grams, the thicker the extensions will be. For example, a full set of extensions that is considered to be lightweight (not much hair attached to the hair extensions) would be somewhere around 100 grams. Whereas, a full set of extensions that is considered to be thick and heavy in weight (a lot of hair attached to the hair extensions) would be around 200 grams or more.


To select the right weight for your hair, you may need to determine what your own hair thickness is first (thin, medium, or thick). It's always suggested to choose a weight that matches your own hair thickness, rather than the hair thickness that you want to achieve.



This is because you may buy the wrong weight of hair extensions that causes many difficulties to blend in with your hair. If you have thin hair and want as much volume as possible, we would not suggest you choose the heaviest set available (like 200 grams or more). This may result in the extensions weighing too heavy on your hair and as a result causing discomfort and ruin your actual hair which may lead to hair loss. A light to medium weight (about 100 grams) will make you achieve a full and voluminous look with comfort.


Similarly, if you have thick hair, we would not suggest choosing a lighter weight set as the light hair extensions will be too thin for your hair to use, it will be like there is a string on your head after installing. So the weight of hair extensions on our website can satisfy most people who have thin hair and want to buy hair extensions. (If you have thick hair and need hair extensions more than 150g per pack, please contact us, we can customize for you).
