DIY/ How To: Make Your Own Clip In Hair Extensions

This is my first voice over so bare with me. :P And yes I know, these hair extensions don't match my hair color. I tried my best to explain how I create my own extensions so if you have any further questions, please leave a comment down below! Thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe!!

You just saved me hours of sewing time. I'm marking a few clip in's highlights for my bangs. Thank you girlfriend!!

[@dragonalchemy6802]

DO NOT use super glue, as it is not meant to be placed against the scalp/skin. Instead try latex bonding glue for the gaps left open between doubling wefts, AFTER the clips are sewn onto the wefts using a C shaped needle. The tacky feeling left behind when using latex glue can be removed by lightly gliding on arrow root powder when sealing off the edges of your wefts to prevent shedding after cutting, that greatly extends the life of your extensions. There is a very high chance of permanently damaging hair wefts using super glue that will slowly break down the hairs bond. Leading to shedding, stiff tracks and scalp burns.

[@annie-eq2ye]

that sounds great but who has arrrow root powder around lol? Is there any alternatives that may be more affordable and easy bc im a beginner and dont want to mess up

[@mobstercrow7515]

I mean I was looking for how to cut off my own hair and make it into an extension but this is cool too.

after all these years not once did i think of crazy glue! always spent hours and hours sewing. Thank you !!

[@meganmontgomery1855]

Thank god I only tried this on the very end of my weft, the crazy glue makes the weft so incredibly hard, I couldn’t even imagine trying to get these things in my hair properly if I had have crazy glued all of them! Not too mention, whatever they treat the hair with reacts with the chemicals in the crazy glue! So the hair close to the weft literally started smoking! Once dried you could see the glue and the hair was hot to the touch! Take the long road and sew them!

[@devonstone6132]

Gorilla glue works great for this process. I find that krazy glue loosens after a while, especially with washing and using products on my extensions. great video XX

[@jadasimone001]

I know it’s been years but I’m just now trying this method. I can’t get the tracks to stick using gorilla glue! 😭

[@andirosek]

@@jadasimone001 I've found Gorilla Glue doesn't work well on fabrics (edit: which is what the hair is stitched to on wefts). I've had to learn this the hard way through trial and error. I read above in another comment that using hair glue would work better for this, maybe even the Krazy glue..idk.

[@thethirsthokage8181]

Why would you want to absorb those chemicals thru your scalp ? No way

This will be so time-saving! In the past I had spent hours sewing wefts together and then afterward added clips by sewing. Gluing will make the job much quicker. Thank you!

[@allymia9696]

Did you try the gluing? Wanted to see how long you have to wait for the glue to dry and do they fall off?

[@tijay8507]

You should do it the right way as glue isn't good for the hair

[@thecherishedlife]

Oh my gosh, this looks so easy! Thank you so much! I made my own extensions a few years ago and sewed them! Now I can’t believe I wasted all that time!!! I can’t wait to make myself some new ones now! THANK YOU!

THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO THAT I HAVE SEEN ON MAKING CLIPS

[@yezziyezzi5395]

don't the extension pieces harden & become hard to conform to the head? I feel like they would be stiff where the glue was applied & would stick up a bit instead of laying flat

[@mummamea19]

I glued mine today then I stitched them onto the clips, not too obvious once attached to your hair

Do we have to glue the ends of the seam that we cut so that the sides don’t frey or so that hair does not fall off?

[@AnaSantosEUA]

Thanks! It was so much easier than sewing ;)

[@SaraStark512]

this is awesome, I've wondered about making my own. maybe to make them last longer glue first then a quick stitch on both ends of the clips to secure them longer? is sewing them messy?

[@amandanettles7453]

hi 👋 if my hair is really short and dark blonde would it look weird if I get extensions that are reddish with blonde highlights. i have never warn hair extensions and I'm thinking about getting some. they are on sale at sallys right now.

Omg yes this was so helpful I knew there had to be a easier way than sewing them together and doing that super long process this is my first time attaching the clips to the hair extensions and I was freaking out but this is awesome I feel so much more confident and its totally the same result but much faster and easier this is Great 👍😃

[@prpemail1885]

I really wanted to focus and remember each step, but as soon as you layed the hair down on your pants to glue them together, I was lost, because i am dumbfounded on how the hec you just SUPER glued all that together, using your pants for support, with no gloves, and didnt seem to drop or get any glue on anything except the hair. My extensions would be glued to my pants, and my fingers glued to the hair. Wow, you have talent, for DIY clip ins, and some home improvement tasks to. Loved the video, how you got to the point, didnt talk about your dog, or job, etc. Just a clear instruction on what the video was intended for. A+

[@roxanneflores3072]

U made it so easy and fast...thank u very much

[@MissAriesGlam]

so you showed in your video that you cut 2 for 3 clip and 2 for 4 wefts. so in total there would be 4 for the 3 clip since you are gluing them together? a bit confused!

[@Lilfyre_FN]

Gricel Polit me too!

[@Flores887]

No she made a weft with 3 clips but she cut 2 pieces that way they would be double wefted i saw that too but she did not explain that, ive bought those hair packs its enough hair to make doublenwefts

So she made to sets of 3 clips using two pieces for each set, one set of 4 clips using again to pieces, and two sets of 2 clips again using two piecea for each set
