22 Inch Straight Halo Hair Extensions

Frequently Asked Questions

How to blend halo extensions with layered hair?

Choose a length that matches your longest layer. If needed you can slightly trim the extensions.

If I want both volume and length what option should I choose?

To maintain a natural look, one halo is enough if your hair is medium thickness. For thin hair or extra volume, layering two halos of different lengths (e.g., 16” for volume + 20” for length) creates the desired effect.

How do I prevent my halo from slipping, if I have silky hair?

Try backcombing the roots at the crown before placing them. It adds grip. A hair spray or dry shampoo also helps with that.

Can I wear my halo with a high ponytail or updo?

Yes, but with some adjustments. Secure the halo lower on your head and leave the top layer of your natural hair out to cover the band.

What products should I use (or avoid) to keep my extensions looking fresh?

Use sulfate-free, alcohol-free shampoos and conditioners. Avoid heavy oils or silicone-based products, as they can weigh down the hair.

Can I sleep with my halo extensions in?

No. Always remove your halo before sleeping to prevent tangling. You can store it in a silk bag or hanger.

Will my halo stay in place if I’m dancing or working out?

Yes, if they are properly secured. Teasing the roots and using a light-hold hairspray help with grip. For high-movement activities, opt for a half-up style to keep the halo in place.

How do I take care of my straight hair extensions so that they last longer?

Wash them with sulfate-free shampoo only when it’s absolutely needed. Better let them air dry rather than blow drying, and store them in a box to avoid tangling or damaging.

Can I curl my straight halo hair extensions?

Yep! You can style it just like your own, they are heat-friendly. But as you would do with your natural hair, make sure to keep the heat at a reasonable level to avoid damage.

Can I dye my halo extensions?

Although not recommended the answer is yes. You can dye them, but only go darker, not lighter—bleaching can damage your extensions. If you need a different shade, we are here to help you easily exchange your product and get you a new one, that fits you better.

Will a halo extension work if I have thin or fine hair?

Yes! Just make sure to place the halo a little lower on your head so it blends in better. You can also tease the roots a bit for extra grip. If your hair is super fine, a few strategically placed bobby pins can secure your hair better and help keep everything in place.
