Hair extensions can make your thin hair look voluminous. But when not used properly, they lead to patchy loss of hair, says an expert.Hair extensions range from human hair, which are available in limited shades, to widely used synthetic hair fiber supplements.
‘To add volume to thin hair one can choose natural human hair extensions, but we advise using it with clip-on attachments,’ says Apoorva Shah, founder of trichology centre Richfeel Health and Beauty.
‘These are temporary, unlike the permanent type of attachment, which cause a lot of pull on the hair it is attached to. Sometimes it causes 'traction alopecia' (patchy loss of hair due to constant pull),’ Shah added.
