How Much Hair

The right amount of hair creates the perfect result. Use this guide alongside your client consultation to find the ideal match by type, length, and thickness.

Converting from a different brand or type

Simply match by gram weight. If your client has been happy with 160 grams of 22" tape-in hair, that translates to eight of our 22" hand-tied wefts at 20 grams each. This works when converting to the same length.

If you use the same gram weight but select longer hair, there will be less density — the hair will be longer and thinner. If your client is moving to longer hair, bump up the gram weight to maintain density.

Our wefts are sold individually so you can create perfect color blends without ordering more than you need.

Combline & V-Light

Yes, our hair works very well with both Combline & V-Light applications. Since the hair is removed from the attachment track, tip, or tab when using their method, all of our types are compatible.

Is any type better for Combline and V-Light installs?

All of our hair is de-pigmented and colored before it is turned into a weft or tab, so it is all exactly the same.

What's the best way to purchase hair for these methods?

Our K-Tips are the best way to purchase small amounts of hair that are already sectioned into single-gram strands. Simply cut the tip from the strand as you go and use the loose hair for Combline or V-Light. K-Tips are especially nice because any unused strands can be saved for later use as K-Tips or with another Combline / V-Light install.

Which type is most cost-effective?

Strictly going by price per gram, our Appliqué Tips are the most cost-effective option. Hand-tied wefts are a little more per gram due to the labor involved in creating the hand-tied track.
