Glue-ins vs Sew-ins

It's a fact,  weaves offer protection as well as a great deal of styling options. In addition, you can now even choose how your weave will be put in. Moreover, knowing the hair pros and cons of sew-in extensions vs glue-in extensions, you can make your own best choice for yourself.

GLUE-INS:
The link is, this style is virtually simple and a much faster process. Many women like using glue-ins because it's a easy way to get the look you want in a shorter amount of time.
But glue- ins comes with pitfalls. Installation is simple but the removal process is when you may run into problems.
It is apparent they can literally rip out your real hair upon taking them out and damage your crown of glory.
Equally important patience is most definitely important when taking out your extensions.
If rushed you can be sure your real hair can be damaged.
Make sure to use a high quality adhesive made especially for weaves and extensions.
They generally are inexpensive, but even a good quality adhesive doesn't cost a lot.
To remove extensions use a glue remover, but make sure you have plenty on hand so you won't run out.
Glue-ins are also a great choice for short term wear.



SEW-INS:
In the same way, whether you decide to visit a professional or not, do expect to pay hundreds of dollars or up.
Sew-ins takes up much more time to put in and if done correctly looks like the real thing, you can gently treat and groom like your own hair.
Sew-ins extensions is the best choice for longer lasting looks.
Sew-ins also  offer more style versatility than glue-in extensions.
You can shampoo and condition your hair when wearing extensions, this is important especially since they can last up to eight weeks.
You will need care for your real hair underneath your extensions while wearing too.
Sew-ins also offer more styling options.
Depending on installation, you can change your part and wear in a variety of ways for overall manageability.




Relaxed hair styling tips:
Equally important, use caution when relaxing your hair and only relax your hair once every two to three months.
Try and get your hair done professionally but if done at home, read instructions carefully to prevent any type of personal hair damage.
You should only apply the relaxer to new growth and never to your hair thats been relaxed before.
  If you apply relaxer to previously relaxed hair you will over process it and damage it.


In addition,  never leave relaxer on your hair too long,  this too can cause serious damage and/or possible hair loss.
Also when relaxing your hair, apply natural oils like olive oil to your previously relaxed hair. This way you won't accidentally over process your hair.


After examining, some stylists will advise their clients to get a touch up every six weeks, thats actually very bad advice.
Touch ups should be done every two to three months.
Check package ingredients and if there's too many chemical names in it, stay away from it.
Let your hair go natural every once in awhile for a few weeks.
In the same way, this is especially important if you wear a lot of high stress hairstyles this can include braids, cornrows and weaves.
While stylish,  these styles can put a lot of stress and strain on your hair.
Let your  hair go natural for a week or two in between styles, so that it can relax and breathe.
For longer lasting styles the fact is, extension sew-ins are the best choice. If you want to do something different with your hair, why not consider wrapping a scarf or headband around it, or you might even consider adding a hair accessory.





The biggest difference between a glue-in or sew-in is definitely the cost.
Both options have clean cut advantages, so think about how long you want to wear it, your lifestyle, and budget to make the right selection for you.
