Before applying halo hair, ensure your natural hair is clean, dry, and styled. Here’s how:
- Wash and condition: Use lightweight products to avoid residue buildup.
- Blow-dry smoothly: Straighten or lightly curl your hair to match the texture of the halo extensions.
Step-by-Step
Step 1: Choose the Right Halo Hair
- Color match: Select a halo shade that closely matches your natural hair color.
- Length and density: Opt for extensions that complement your hair’s thickness. Too thick or too long can look unnatural.
Step 2: Position the Halo Correctly
Placement: Position the halo wire about 1–2 inches behind your hairline. Avoid placing it too far back, as this creates a “floating” effect.
Secure the wire: Gently press the wire against your scalp and ensure it’s snug but not tight. Please adjust the fishing line if needed.
If the shortest fishing line is still too long:
- Adjust the line by pulling the shorter end (as shown in the diagram).
- This will shift the excess length to the opposite side.
- Trim the excess line to your desired length.
🔊If you received 8 shape metal adjustment ring fishing line (color #2 dark brown and color #3/8/22 brown and blonde balayage color), please see the video:
🎯Tip: If you don’t like the upgrade new fishing line, you could cut it and replace it to normal fishing line.
Step 3: Tension Test
Hook your index finger under the hair weft and pull gently outward:
Ideal Tension: The weft moves ≤0.5cm and then springs back into place.
Too Tight: Redness along the hair weft’s edge → Loosen the fishing line.
Too Loose: The weft sags or creates gaps → Shorten the fishing line.
Step 4: Blend with Layers and Styling
Cover the wire: Let your natural hair fall over the halo wire. Use a comb to smooth the top layer, ensuring no gaps.
Layer integration: If your natural hair has layers, lightly curl or straighten both your hair and the extensions together to unify the look.
Step 5: Final Touches for a Natural Look
Trim if needed: If the halo hair is significantly longer than your natural hair, trim it slightly for a gradual blend.
Check angles: View your hair from all sides and angles in a mirror to ensure no visible wire or uneven sections.
Warm Tips
- Flat Head Shape: Gently lift the middle section of the hair weft while letting the sides hang naturally to avoid a flattened appearance at the back of the head.
- Round Head Shape: Pull both ends of the hair weft taut, leaving the middle section slightly relaxed to conform to the head’s curved contour.
