We’ve put together a guide on how to pick your perfect piece which includes a step-by-step application tutorial and style inspiration. 

What is a One Piece Clip-in Hair Extension?

For a lot of people multi piece extension sets are too much effort, they can have up to 8 pieces that need to be positioned all over the head. The beauty of a One Piece Clip In Hair Extension is that you only need to worry about a single piece which takes a fraction of the time and trouble to apply than a full head multi piece set. They sit discreetly underneath the hair usually attached from ear to ear and vary in thickness depending on your hair type. This Clip-in type is especially appealing for customers with fine hair looking to add a natural amount of volume. For more info check out our full One Piece Clip Ins FAQ’s.
