How to Choose Hair Extensions Length
Wondering how to choose hair extensions length for your style and hair type? This quick guide will help you pick the perfect length for a natural and flattering look.
📏 Hair Length Options
- Short (10–12 inches):
Reaches collarbone. Great for chic bobs or light volume. - Medium (14–18 inches):
Shoulder to armpit length. Versatile and natural-looking. - Long (20–24 inches):
Mid-back to waist. Perfect for glam waves or sleek straight styles. - Extra-Long (26+ inches):
Hip-length or longer. Ideal for dramatic, show-stopping looks.
📌 Note: Length is measured from temple-level installation, not from crown.
💡 Pro Tips for how to choose hair extensions length
Curly Hair Adjustments:
Add 2–3 inches to your desired length when choosing curly or wavy textures, as curls shrink naturally when dry.
Fine Hair Consideration:
Avoid going longer than 20 inches unless you use double-density wefts for balanced volume.
Want More Volume?
Choose 14–18 inches and ask your stylist for layered cutting — it adds bounce without too much weight.
