At HairSouk.dk you will find a wide selection of hair extensions that match different hair types and needs.
Extensions are available in different qualities and methods, so you can choose the solution that best suits your hair type and lifestyle.

What types of hair extensions are there?
When choosing extensions, it is important to find the method that best suits your needs and your desired hairstyle.
-
Clip-in extensions – The fastest and most flexible solution, where you can put your hair in and take it out as needed. Perfect for special occasions or temporary changes.
-
Tape-in extensions – A semi-permanent method where the hair is fixed with tape, which gives a natural and discreet look. Ideal for those who want a long-lasting solution without permanent application.
-
Keratin extensions – A durable method where small tufts of hair are fixed with heat and keratin. This method provides a very natural integration and lasts for several months.
-
Weft/hair straightener – A method where extensions are sewn or braided into the natural hair. Suitable for people with thicker hair who want maximum volume.
-
Halo extensions – An innovative and gentle solution where the hair sits on a thin thread that is easily placed around the head for a quick transformation.
Benefits of using hair extensions
In addition to giving you longer hair in a short time, extensions have a number of other advantages:
-
Instant transformation – With extensions, you can change your hairstyle in a few minutes without having to wait for your own hair to grow out.
-
Extra volume - Perfect for those who have fine or thin hair and want more volume.
-
Gentle styling – If you often style your hair with heat, extensions can help reduce the stress on your own hair as you can style them instead.
-
Color change without damage – Do you want stripes or an ombre effect without dyeing your own hair? Extensions are available in many shades, so you can experiment without risk.
-
Durability – With the right care, extensions can last for several months, making them a long-term investment in your hairstyle.
How do you choose the right hair extensions?
To achieve the most natural result, it is important to choose extensions that match your own hair color, texture and lifestyle.
-
Hair type: If you have fine hair, you should choose light clip-in or tape-in extensions, as heavy methods can wear on the hair.
-
Color match: Choose extensions that match your natural hair color, or go for balayage or ombre extensions if you want a more dynamic look.
-
Length: Consider how long you want your hair. The most popular lengths are between 40 and 60 cm, but there are also shorter and longer variants.
-
Real vs. synthetic hair: Real hair extensions can be styled and treated like your own hair, while synthetic extensions often require more gentle care.
Can hair extensions be used to hide hair loss?
Hair extensions are not only a solution for those who want longer or fuller hair – they can also be used to hide beginning hair loss or thinning hair. Many experience natural hair loss with age, hormonal changes or as a result of stress and medical treatments. With the right extensions, you can create a natural and fuller look that gives you more confidence in everyday life.
For people with thin hair, clip-in or tape-in extensions are recommended, as they are gentle on the scalp and can be strategically placed to cover areas where the hair has thinned. Halo extensions can also be a good solution, as they are not attached to the scalp, but rest lightly on the head and create a naturally full look.
Can you sleep with hair extensions?
If you use clip-in extensions, it is always recommended to take them out before bed to prolong their life and prevent them from tangling. For semi-permanent extensions such as tape-in, keratin or weft extensions, it is important to protect the hair at night by sleeping with a loose braid or a silk hat. This reduces friction against the pad and reduces the risk of broken hair.
How to care for your hair extensions
To extend the life of your extensions, it is important to care for them correctly.
-
Wash them gently – Use a sulfate-free shampoo and a moisturizing one balm to preserve the hair's softness and shine.
-
Avoid too much heat – If you use styling tools, you should always use a heat protectant spray to protect the hair.
-
Brush the hair gently – Use a special brush for extensions to avoid wear on the joints.
-
Store them properly – If you use clip-in extensions, they should be stored in a bag or box to prevent tangling.
How long do hair extensions last?
The durability of extensions depends on the type and how they are cared for.
-
Clip-in extensions can last up to a year if cared for properly and not washed too often.
-
Tape-in extensions typically last for 6-8 weeks, after which they can be reapplied.
-
Keratin extensions has a durability of 3-6 months depending on the growth rate of your own hair.
-
Weft extensions often needs to be adjusted every 6-8 weeks to follow your natural hair growth.
If you want your extensions to last as long as possible, you should follow the care recommendations and avoid excessive heat treatment.
Hair extensions and styling - what should you pay attention to?
Extensions allow you to style your hair in countless ways, but there are some things you should be aware of.
-
Use heat with caution – Although real hair extensions can be styled with heat, you should always use a lower temperature and a heat protection spray.
-
Avoid heavy styling products – Hairspray, mousse and wax can build up in extensions and make them difficult to clean. Use light styling products without silicone.
-
Braid hair at night – If you have semi-permanent extensions, it helps to braid your hair before bed to avoid tangling.
-
Change your hairstyle without damaging your hair – Extensions make it easy to switch between straight hair, big waves and updos without having to use chemical treatments.
