  • Measure the length of the line and cut the hair weft so that it fits the length of the line. Here you can use single or double wefts depending on the hair volume you want to achieve.
  • Then, using a curved needle with thread, carefully sew the hair weft on top of the entire braid. The ends must be firmly attached to prevent the weft from slipping out of the hair.
  • For a substantial hair thickening , sew in the  hair on a couple of parallel braids, working upwards on the head. The most common is to sew in the hair in 3 to 6 rows of braids.
